What god are you serving?
I feel greater pity for someone who takes delight in a sinful deed! -Augustine
PSalm
Exodus 20:3-
The first command tells us to stop worshipping the wrong gods!
The second tells us to stop worshipping the wrong way!
The second tells us to stop worshipping the wrong way!
Where sin is affirmed God must judge.
Where sin is repented of Jesus saves.
Following Christ means identifying idols and tearing them down!
We are called to worship God alone while we enjoy His creation!
Sin is building your life and meaning on anything, even a very good thing, more than on God.
Whatever we build our life on will drive us and enslave us.
Sin is primarily idolatry.
Tim Keller
Every sin leads to eternal Hell
Matt5
The fire of lusts pleasures must be fought with the fire of God’s superior pleasure!
We must have holy satisfaction in God’s goodness.
Delight yourself in the Lord!
Jesus is love and holiness, grace and truth, justice and compassion, wrath and mercy, jealous and happiness.
We worship the living God!
If dumb idols are mistaken for the glory of God, they will always break our hearts!
They are not the thing itself
What water are you drinking?
God created man in His image, and man has been trying to return the favor ever since.
If God doesn't make us mad, we’re not worshiping Him, but ourselves.
-Karl Barth
The cross was God’s everlasting no to the most fundamental human idolatry of regarding the self as god.
Mark Noll
God designed the human heart to be complete and free in Himself! -JD Greear
The idols we rush to fill our lives with will never be God enough.
They will never satisfy us like Jesus!
A consumerism Jesus may be one part genie, one part fan club, one part financial advisor, one part American patriot, and several parts therapist.
We trace the smoke of sin back to the corrupt worship of idols.
Stress, worry, anxiety, strife, jealousy, and dissatisfaction all are smoke rising from altars of false gods.
Are you harsh & judgmental toward others?
You may have not experienced God’s grace!
Do you always agree with society?
Your God is not transcendent!
Do you worry often?
Your God is not good, wise, and sovereign as He is in the Bible!
Do you feel condemned?
God is not a faithful, redeeming Father!
Are you jealous of other people?
Your God is not glorious and all-sufficient!
You can shrink God and carry him of humble yourself and let Him carry you!
JD Greear
There was once in man a true happiness, now there remains an empty place… it can only be filled with an infinite God! -Blaise Pascal
4 ways we respond to idols
Blame the idol
Blame yourself
Blame the World
Realize your need
If I find a desire which this world cannot satisfy, most likely, I was made for another world.
-CS Lewis
The Holy Spirit is God.
He is a person possessing a will, intellect and emotions.
He is God -- with all the attributes of deity.
He is the third person of the Trinity -- co-equal with God the Father and God the Son.
Galatians
The Word of God is closed to our understanding and has little meaning to us apart from the illumination given by the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is hindered in speaking clear and life changing truth apart from the Word of God.
Be filled with the Holy Spirit (breathing)
Live a life pleasing to the LORD!
Surrender your life totally to our LORD Jesus! (Rom 12:1-2)
Confess every sin that comes to mind!(I Jn 1:9)
