Many people know about Jesus, but far fewer experience the transformation that comes from truly following Him.
In this week's message from our Ephesians series, Pastor Ken explores Ephesians 4:17-24 and challenges believers to examine whether they are still living according to old patterns of thinking, believing, and behaving.
The Apostle Paul warns Christians not to continue living like those who are spiritually disconnected from God. Instead, believers are called to walk in the light, allow the Holy Spirit to renew their minds, and embrace the new identity they have received through Christ.
Pastor Ken explains how spiritual darkness begins when people reject God's truth and gradually become insensitive to His voice. Over time, a hardened heart develops, making it more difficult to recognize conviction, truth, and God's direction.
But the good news is that transformation is possible.
Through Jesus Christ, we are no longer defined by our old nature. We are invited to throw off the old self, renew our minds daily, and put on the new nature that reflects God's righteousness and holiness.
You'll learn:
• What it means to "walk" differently as a follower of Jesus • Why spiritual confusion begins with rejecting God's truth • The biblical meaning of a hardened heart • How repeated exposure to sin affects the conscience • Why Christianity is about knowing Christ, not simply knowing facts • How the Holy Spirit renews thoughts and attitudes • The connection between mindset and spiritual growth • Practical ways to live out your identity in Christ every day
Powerful Takeaway:
"Don't spend your life settling for the old self when God has already given you a new one."
Whether you're new to faith, returning to church, or seeking spiritual growth, this message will help you understand how God's truth can transform the way you think, live, and follow Jesus.
