Looking Good
The threat of false teachers was rising up within the church. They lured people by keeping godly outward appearance. They looked religious but they actually lived so far from God’s standard; with no knowledge of the redeeming power of the Gospel.
Deadly Imitation
A Devotion Based on Acts 4.32-5.11 Ananias and Sapphira chose to pretend. Barnabas chose to become. Too many Christians choose to pretend like Ananias and Sapphira. Let us strive to become the real deal instead.
Before You Throw That Stone
A Devotion Based on John 8.1-11
Just like Jesus, we are surrounded by all kinds of people. Just as Jesus was being judged by the teachers of the law, we are also being judged by others. But that does not mean we should judge others in return.
Through The Mask
A Devotion Based on Mark 7:1-7. We can fool people around us but we cannot fool God. You cannot fool the one who can see through the mask.
Genuine Faith
Our works in obedience to Christ will verify our declaration of faith. If we truly have faith, then it’s time to truly put in the works.
Real Love
People only respond to real love. Hypocritical love does not work and people can smell it a mile away. When you say that you love someone but you are embarrassed to be seen with them, or you’re not available to them, or you’re not listening to them, then they will know that you’re only pretending to love them; and they will reject you and whatever it is that you’re trying to sell them.
The Real Deal Campaign
The world cannot be allowed to define the Church. It is the Church must go and redefine the world.
