It is easy to be contrary to sound doctrine. Be one who conforms to Jesus’ gospel (see 1 Timothy 1:6-11)
Getting “approved” these days is not easy. I went to the checker, put my credit card into the reader… and… Whew! It said “Approved”. I wish I would be approved by everyone every day.
What about you and Jesus? Your belief system. Is yours a sound doctrine Jesus will approve? Or have you jacked-up, messed up, fiddled with, adulterated – The Gospel of Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and Paul. It may surprise you to find the gate to Heaven locked to you.
Do the facts “check”?
Fact-check our beliefs with the Bible
“Popular” does not mean “God accepts this”. In fact, the Bible warns us to fact-check our beliefs with the Bible, the ultimate words from God. Jesus does not accept contrived ways to Heaven. Have you sought to verify the factual accuracy of your beliefs about Jesus?
God is extreme to the nth. His Way is One Way. Jesus even told one inquirer, “One thing you lack“. If you “lack” anything not covered by His grace, you lack what it takes to get to Heaven. He is that exacting. Don’t fool yourself.
The Kingdom of God is very exclusive, very luxurious, very special
Don’t be one of those enlightened folks who have drifted spiritually.
They went out from us [seeming at first to be Christians], but they were not really of us [because they were not truly born again and spiritually transformed]; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us; but they went out [teaching false doctrine], so that it would be clearly shown that none of them are of us.
– 1 John 2:19
“…the law is made …for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, 10 for the sexually immoral, for those practicing homosexuality, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine 11 that conforms to the gospel”
– 1 Timothy 1:6-11
Are you intellectually contrary to what the Bible teaches? Contradicting Jesus with how you live throughout your day? You a contrarian, not willing to conform to what Jesus taught?
