🛐Are You Ignoring God’s Warning?

🛐Are You Ignoring God’s Warning?

Here's the Idea

  1. God’s Word must be taken personally, not treated as if it is only for someone else.

  2. Ignoring God’s warning can cause a person to miss rescue.

  3. Comfort, busyness, pride, and delay can make the heart slow to repent.

  4. A person can miss God’s rescue by ignoring one clear warning from Scripture or the Holy Spirit.

Spiritual Readiness — Matthew 24:42

  1. Jesus said to watch because no one knows when He is coming.

  2. Believers should not live carelessly as if they have unlimited time.

  3. Christ will surely return, so the heart must remain awake and alert.

  4. The proper response is to live ready, humble, obedient, and spiritually watchful.

Wrong Voices — 2 Peter 3:3–4

  1. Scripture warns that scoffers will mock the promise of Christ’s return.

  2. Laughing at truth does not make truth false.

  3. Wrong voices can weaken faith and make sin easier to excuse.

  4. Believers must reject voices that pull them away from surrender and obedience.

Spiritual Sleep — 1 Thessalonians 5:6

  1. Paul warns believers not to sleep spiritually like others.

  2. A person can be physically awake but still numb toward God.

  3. Distractions, laziness, and weak prayer can dull spiritual sensitivity.

  4. Believers should build habits that keep the heart alert and devoted to God.

A Crowded Heart — Luke 21:34–36

  1. Jesus warned that pleasure, worry, and daily life can weigh down the heart.

  2. A distracted heart can become unprepared for Christ’s return.

  3. Prayer, truth, and repentance must have room in the heart.

  4. Believers must examine whether worry or pleasure has become more important than God.

Delayed Obedience — Romans 13:11

  1. Paul says it is time to wake up.

  2. Delaying what God has already commanded can become disobedience.

  3. The time to obey is today, not tomorrow.

  4. Spiritual urgency should not become routine or be ignored.

Religious Appearance — 2 Timothy 3:1–5

  1. Paul warned that people can look religious while denying God’s power.

  2. Religion without surrender is spiritually dangerous.

  3. Outward appearance cannot replace inward holiness.

  4. True faith should change the heart, not just improve the image.

Remember and Repent — Revelation 3:3

  1. Jesus told the church to remember, hold fast, and repent.

  2. Hearing truth is not enough if it does not lead to repentance.

  3. Conviction should still move the heart.

  4. God’s warnings only help when they are obeyed.

Personal Readiness for Jesus — Matthew 25:13

  1. Jesus said no one knows the day or the hour.

  2. Each person must be personally ready for Christ.

  3. No one can borrow another person’s relationship with God.

  4. Faith must be sincere, active, and ready.

Your Move is Next

  1. Stop ignoring God.

  2. Stop delaying obedience.

  3. Stop protecting sin.

  4. Surrender the whole heart.

  5. Stop sleeping spiritually.

  6. Remember that Jesus is coming again.

🙏Trading Pride for the Heart of Christ

  Trading Pride For The Heart of Christ I. The Nature of Pride and Ego Analogies: Pride as a loud rooster, sunglasses at night, courtroom over leftovers. Wears suits too big; clings to titles like a raccoon with a shiny object. Ego is pride’s louder, needier cousin demanding the spotlight. Behaviors: Defensiveness over small things. Refusing to admit fault. Turning conversations into competitions. Effects: Damages relationships quietly at first—like a drip under a sink. Makes home/workplaces emotionally unsafe. Scriptures: Proverbs 16:18 – "Pride goes before destruction." Galatians 6:3 – "He deceives himself." Proverbs 11:2 – "With the humble is wisdom." II. Manipulation and Emotional Blackmail Forms: Guilt-based love (“If you loved me, you would…”). Charm masking control. Kindness misread, expectations unspoken. Consequences: Emotional taxation; people feel drained. Love be...

Living Holy Lives with Integrity and Truth

Sunday, August 10, 2025 w/Pr. Jose Key Points Holiness should be evident in all aspects of a believer's life, including digital communications, social media presence, and business dealings, as stated in 1 Peter 1:15. The importance of integrity in everyday actions was emphasized, noting that Christians should not engage in dishonest behaviors like theft or misrepresentation. Believers should strive to represent God through their conduct, avoiding negative behaviors like division, pride, and unnecessary conflict within the church community. Temptation serves as a monitor of character strength rather than something to be prayed away, with personal responsibility emphasized over blaming external factors. The mind was identified as one of the most powerful resources God has given believers, with the principle that "wherever the mind goes, the heart follows." Four types of knowledge of God were outlined: intellectual knowledge (gained through study), experiential knowl...
