The Bible warns us that we will all stand before God's judgment seat one day. This sermon explores the reality of God's judgment, the dangers of conforming to the world, and the transformative power of becoming like Christ.
The Reality of God's Judgment
1. Romans 14:10-12: We will all stand before God's judgment seat.
2. 2 Corinthians 5:10: Our works will be judged, determining our eternal destiny.
3. Revelation 20:12-15: The final judgment will reveal our true character.
The Dangers of Conforming to the World
1. Romans 12:2: Conforming to the world leads to spiritual death.
2. 1 John 2:15-17: Loving the world means loving darkness, not light.
3. James 4:4: Friendship with the world is enmity with God.
The Transformative Power of Becoming Like Christ
1. Romans 8:29: We are predestined to be conformed to Christ's image.
2. 2 Corinthians 3:18: Beholding Christ's glory transforms us into His likeness.

The day of judgment approaches. Will you be like the world or more like Christ? Choose transformation, choose life. Embrace the power of the Gospel, and become conformed to Christ's image.
"Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves." - 2 Corinthians 13:5
Let this be a wake-up call to examine your life. Are you becoming more like Christ, or are you conforming to the world? The choice is yours, but the consequences are eternal.
