    Confession Without Conversion

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 18, 2025
     | 187 views

    Confession without conversion is a dangerous spiritual deception. It gives the appearance of salvation without the power of it. God is not impressed with words alone—He looks for a surrendered heart and a transformed life.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Matthew 15:7-9 Supporting Texts: Titus 1:16, Isaiah 29:13, Romans 10:9-10, James 2:17, Matthew 7:21-23 INTRODUCTION: In today’s Christian world, many people confess Christ with their mouths but deny Him by their lifestyle.

    It is time for new beginnings, a time for resurrection; a time for emptiness to be filled, a time of obedience and time for us to live by eternal time not ordinary time.

They seem to have all the right words, but (so far) “works” are lacking. James 2:14. What is the profit in the ...read more
