Book of Acts & Biblical Leadership (Part 8) | What Is an “Almost” Christian?


Listen Later

The world is full of “almost” Christians. But what does that mean? And what keeps someone from fully surrendering to Jesus?
In Acts 28, we read how King Agrippa was “almost” a Christian.
He understood Jewish culture.
He knew the prophecies recorded in Jewish scripture.
He acknowledged the logic of Paul’s argument and couldn’t counter it.
Yet Agrippa couldn’t surrender to Jesus. Why?
There were 4 things standing in the way of King Agrippa moving from “almost” Christian to full surrender to Christ.
Seduction
Pride
Family
Religion
Acts 26:28 says…
“Then Agrippa said to Paul ‘You almost persuade me to become a Christian.’”
Join Pastor Phil as he teaches…
