In this message, I slow down to reflect on a temptation that quietly follows many sincere believers, especially those who care deeply about Scripture and truth. Over time, knowledge can begin to feel like safety. Understanding can start to feel like assurance. And without realizing it, we can drift from resting in Christ to resting in being right. Drawing from passages such as John 5, Matthew 7, Romans 3, Romans 7–8, and 2 Timothy, I explore how Scripture consistently points us away from confidence in ourselves and toward dependence on Christ alone. Jesus does not rebuke people for searching the Scriptures, but for refusing to come to Him. That distinction matters more than we often realize. This message considers the subtle danger of replacing trust with clarity, dependence with precision, and rest with religious activity. It looks honestly at how knowledge, ministry involvement, and even good theology can become substitutes for Christ rather than servants that lead us to Him. The aim here is not to unsettle tender consciences, but to dismantle false confidence and redirect our rest where it belongs. Not in what we know. Not in what we've done. But in Christ Himself, His finished work, and His faithfulness to save His people completely. Grace and peace, and thank you for listening.
