    How do you know if you have only a head knowledge of Christ or are truly born again? Is there merit or value in questioning one’s salvation? The Bible gives the reason for self examination and the measures to use.

    Contributed by Mark Adams on Jan 13, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,192 views

    The OT has a lot of interesting stories about idolatry, but is that really just a problem of the past? This sermon addresses the very real problem that our culture has in worshiping our own desires above all else.

"Self is the great idol standing at the center of our conceptual world, to which all bow low. We even have a duty-to-self ethic, as if self-denial were harmful, immoral, and ...read more
