$ 25.00

Description

This CD set contains the powerful sermon series "Got Religion?" by Stephen Davey. This series delves into the crucial distinction between outward religious practices and genuine faith, challenging listeners to examine the true condition of their hearts before God. Each message builds upon the last, offering insightful biblical analysis and practical application.

Here's a brief description of each lesson included in this set:

Part 1: The Business of Whitewashing: This lesson uses the striking image of a man found dead at his desk after five days to illustrate how easily the church and individuals can appear alive outwardly while being spiritually dead. It explores the dangers of prioritizing religious form over a true relationship with Jesus Christ. Discover the six reasons why even faithful Jews of Paul's time felt eternally safe, and consider the warning this holds for religious people today.

Part 2: Churchianity: This message contrasts mere "churchianity" with authentic Christianity, revealing that outward religious activity and profession don't necessarily equate to true redemption. Examine the four reasons why the faithful Jew felt superior to others and confront yourself with five probing rhetorical questions that expose the potential for self-deception within religious practice.

Part 3: Ruining the Reputation of God: This sermon explores the serious consequences of hypocritical living among those who claim to follow God. It revisits the first four challenging questions and emphasizes how breaking the Law, while boasting in it, dishonors God. Understand that the greatest attraction to Christianity is holy living, and the greatest obstacle is hypocritical Christians.

Part 4: The Latest Fashion in Fig Leaves: Drawing from the story of Adam and Eve, this lesson reveals how man-made religion is often a superficial attempt to cover up sin and avoid accountability. Explore the inadequacy of these "fig leaves" and the futility of religious rituals as a replacement for righteous living. Discover the necessity of exchanging our efforts for God's atoning substitute for true forgiveness.

Part 5: The Heart of the Matter: This concluding message emphasizes that true spirituality is a matter of the heart, not just outward appearance or religious performance. Through contrasting vocabulary and a comparison with Jesus's conversation with Nicodemus in John 3, this lesson underscores the necessity of being "born again" through faith in Jesus Christ. Understand that God looks at the heart and that genuine Christianity transforms everything from the inside out.
