In this convicting message, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson unpacks the Apostle Paul’s defense of his ministry against false teachers infiltrating the Corinthian church. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 11:7–15, he contrasts the selfless marks of a true minister with the deceitful traits of false apostles. Pastor Johnson also addresses the broader implications for modern Christianity—warning against a nominal faith that lacks repentance, and highlighting the dangers posed by deceptive leaders who peddle a diluted gospel for personal gain.

Through powerful examples and scriptural insight, this sermon challenges believers to examine their own lives: Is the truth of Christ within you? Are you serving others sacrificially, as Christ and Paul did? Pastor Johnson calls the Church to recognize the marks of genuine faith and to reject superficial religiosity that lacks true transformation.

Whether you're a church leader or a layperson, this message is a vital call to embrace truth, love, and sacrificial service in a world full of spiritual counterfeits.
