Matt. 7:21-23
“God knows I love Him without needing a big organization”
What proof do you have to verify such a claim? – Rom. 11:33-34
Ignores the lesson of Cain, Nadab and Abihu & others – Gen. 4:3-7, Lev. 10:1-2
Takes a very big risk with one’s soul
Not entertainment & recreation – Acts 2:41-42
But a group of believers following the apostles’ doctrine – Col. 3:16, 4:2; Heb. 10:24-25
Where they are not guessing at what is pleasing to God
Nor so focused on their own traditions that God’s Word takes a back seat
He said “My church” – Matt. 16:18Do you think a head does not care what its
body is doing?Christ tells us how He would have us live –
Gal. 1:6-8“My church” is not an umbrella term! You can be as religious as possible, but that
alone is not enough – 2 John 9
If you desire to follow after God, that is good. After all, He is our creator. But do not presume that we (or any man) are in a position to dictate how and when we should serve Him. Thankfully He tells us plainly – John 4:23-24
