This video really expresses well a lot of the things I think about. Do we really sound like Jesus and the things He said? Read the words in red.
Nothing matters more than your eternal destiny. Will it be Jesus’ words that guide your decision, or the words of your average evangelical preacher who is wanting primarily to build a reasonably popular church where people are happy.
Here’s my struggle. I get what Francis Chan is saying, but what is the difference between “Works of the Flesh” and “Doing the will of God” ? The Bible clearly states that we can’t get into heaven by our good works. So when people go to church, try and do good, confess their sins on occasion and live the best that they can, I don’t understand why they would go to hell. I hope this makes sense. So if I could do God’s will and earn my way to heaven, why did Jesus have to die on the cross for me?
