Presentation transcript:

Things that must be genuine, authentic, and real. Really? Things that must be genuine, authentic, and real.

Is our worship and devotion REALLY for God? The Israelites fasted, but not REALLY (Zechariah 7:5). It was really a fast But it was not really for the Lord It was not for their sins It was for self-pity God wanted fasting that was truly done for Him (cf. Isaiah 58:3-7)

Is our worship and devotion REALLY for God? Is it to be righteous or to appear to be righteous? (Matt. 23:28) Is it for God’s glory or for our own? (Matt. 6:2-16) Is it authorized by God or did we invent it for selfish reasons? God never commanded Israel to fast on the fifth and seventh months (Zechariah 7:3-5) We must not go beyond what is written (Colossians 2:20-23; 1 Corinthians 4:6)

Do We Really Pay Attention to the Limits God has Imposed? God limits the financial burden of the church. Really!

Do We Really Pay Attention to the Limits God has Imposed? Are we doing His work if we ignore these limits? Not really!

Are you Really a Child of God? Isaac asked if Jacob were really his son (Genesis 27:21). God wants to see if you are really His child. Are you led by His Spirit (Romans 8:14) Do you accept His discipline (Hebrews 12:5-8)

Are You Really a Christian? Do you believe Jesus is the Son of God? (John 8:24) Did you repent of your sins? (Acts 3:19) Did you confess Christ? (Matthew 10:32) Have you been baptized into Christ for the remission of your sins? (Acts 2:38) Our worship and work for the Lord, as well as our salvation, must be real and genuine in order to be of any true value.

Many have been baptized, but not REALLY! Acts 19:1-5 Were You Baptized into Christ? In water (Acts 8:36-38) To be saved (Mark 16:16) For the remission of sins (Acts 2:38) Into the death of Christ (Romans 6:3, 4) Into the body of Christ (1 Cor. 12:13) Many are “baptized” but not “immersed.” Many are baptized with water but not to be saved. Many are baptized believing that their sins have already been remitted. Many are baptized into a man-made religious body.

A relationship with Christ is more valuable than gold, but it has to be real! 1 Peter 1:7 speaks of “the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ”
