ARE YOU SURE YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN

Stop following the Man!

This is such a important video to start the year with. I remember when I first started to become dissatisfied with just drinking in one sermon on Sundays. I started to want more of God speaking to me. But like anything the focus of the attention may be focused on the creation instead of the Creator. Paul Washer addresses the danger of living off the preacher more then our own seeking and pursuing after God. It is so easy to just be attracted to preachers that are "good" then to those that are just faithful. They may have a dry voice and their pitch is the same. But if they are preaching the Word of God. Does their delivery really matter. We may have to work harder to listen and keep our attention. I have discovered a few preachers that are faithful in Preaching the Word. But the Purpose Driven Crowd would not find them worth the time to listen to. That I am sure would grieve the Holy Spirit to use that "old man" to bring out the Word of God that they need for that time in their lives. Please think about this! Pursue after God this year as your first Treasure!

  1. I appreciated that video a lot, Jeff. Thanks for posting it. It is often very humbling to see someone like that being brutally honest.
