Bowing To The Great Idol Of Self

Contributed by Mark Adams on Jan 13, 2007

based on 4 ratings

| 5,897 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.

To the reader: What inspired this sermon was a quote I read in R.C. Ortlund’s book, When God Comes To Church, p. 194. "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

Knowing more about Samson’s life offers us a wider scope of understanding regarding the danger of self-confidence and spiritual leniency.

Self-confidence is a misplaced reliance and it is offensive before the sight of God. Its deceitfulness is being revealed from generation to generation and sorrowfully experienced by its trapped victims.

Freedom Through Self-Denial

Contributed by Norayr Hajian on Apr 1, 2008

based on 18 ratings

| 15,108 views

On the one hand, Jesus says "deny yourself, take up your cross and follow me." On the other hand Jesus says "I have come that they may have life and have it to the full." The message explains how is self-denial is a life "to the fullest".

Today we’re going to look at a topic that is very personal. The scripture is from Luke 9:23 “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.” Just hearing these words is difficult. Putting them into practice seems utterly hopeless, unrealistic. We ...read more
