There's more in the Word about abandoning your

beliefs than there is about unbelief.

Rom 16:17 Now I urge you, brethren, note those who

cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine

which you learned, and avoid them.18 For those who

are such do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ, but their

own belly, and by smooth words and flattering speech

deceive the hearts of the simple.

2 John 1:7 For many deceivers have gone out into the

world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the

flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

8 Look to yourselves, that we do not lose those things we worked

for, but that we may receive a full reward.

9 Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of

Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine

of Christ has both the Father and the Son.

10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not

receive him into your house nor greet him;

11 for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.

2 Thes 2:15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast and hold the

traditions which you were taught, whether by word or

our epistle

1 Tim 4:1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter

times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to

deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons

The New Testament:

● Gospels-The importance of being born again

○ Jesus is the Christ the Son of the Living God

○ Jesus, who knew no sin, became sin for us

that we might become the righteousness of

God.

● Acts-The importance of being filled w/ the Spirit

○ When believer’s were endued with power

from on high...the world changed...was

turned upside down...or you could say it this

way; the world was turned right side up.

○ In Acts 19 the first thing Paul asked a group

of people who “looked like believers” was if

they received the Holy Spirit when they

believed.

● Epistiles-The importance of growing up spiritually

○ Learning who you are “In Christ”

○ Living by faith

○ Disciplining your flesh

○ Developing the character and nature of God
