By Pastor Jason Lim
Whilst Christians are destined for glory, not all live God-glorifying lives all the time. We can slip into indulging the passions of the flesh and live in carnality. How can we tell? What's the problem? And how can we break free?
1. Diagnosis.
Carnal Christianity is likened to spiritual infancy.
Carnal Christians have a simple diet- they can only tolerate simple foods.
Carnal Christians have a stunted development.
Carnal Christians have a self-centered disposition.
2. Danger.
Whilst physical babies are messy, spiritual babies are plain destructive and dangerous.
They cause schisms and divisions in the church or body of Christ and bring shame and disrepute to Christ's name.
3. Deliverance.
Whilst the way to deliverance is not in the text, it is a question that begs to be answered when we consider carnal Christianity. The sermon explores the principles: a. remember b. realise c. repent d. rely.
