Jeremy Utley - Beware a Self-Appointed Promised Land
Summary
Jeremy Utley warns against constructing self-appointed spiritual substitutes when separated from God's true center of worship and community. Drawing from Joshua 22, where tribes built an altar east of the Jordan in an attempt to maintain connection to God, he teaches that Christians must keep Jesus as the center of joy and inheritance, resist the temptation to create alternative spiritual practices, and remain fully integrated into the local church rather than seeking independent paths to God.
Description
Speaker: Jeremy Utley Title: Beware a Self-Appointed Promised Land Date: 05/11/2025 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)
