Authentic Christians Luke 18:18-23

Get Personal! Christianity applies and impacts every area of your life. Not just where & when you worship. Luke 18:23 - Finances Eph. 5:22 &24; 6:1 - Relationships Col. 3:23 - Occupations Eph. 5:3-4 - Sexually & Verbally 2 Cor. 10:5 - Your Thought Life

Will Transform! Those who have experienced the forgiveness and grace of Christ should never be the same. Acts 4:13 - Peter Acts 9:27 - Paul Rom. 12:2 - The Romans Gal 5: The Galatians

Desire God! Matt. 22:37 Ps. 42:1 The heart of a Christian seeks God and His righteous. Whenever we stop short of His Holiness we have ceased to strive for authenticity, and have compromised for worldly acceptability.
