Date: 06/28/2026
Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29)
We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3)
We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)
Summary
The central message is distinguishing between worldly 'information' and divine 'wisdom,' arguing that information from the world (like social media or AI) is misleading, whereas wisdom comes only from the Lord. Furthermore, true spiritual progress involves recognizing one's constant need for God's strength, rather than feeling self-sufficient.
