Speaker: NCCF Church Title: NCCF Church Sharing Date: 11/29/2020 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 that Christians must guard themselves from idols, which are anything we desire more than God's will. The speaker expands this concept to include wanting anything other than what God has appointed for our lives, using Jesus' prayer in Gethsemane as an example. Practical self-examination questions—such as identifying main passions, where free time goes, what causes anxiety, and where we seek rest—are suggested to help uncover any idols in the heart.
