Weird Faith

What makes a good christian? Religion or Relationship? Luke 18:9-14 (p.800) Results of religion: Pride Despair

with Luke 5:8-11 Do you have to earn God’s acceptance? Live WITH Jesus, not for Jesus – “with” fulfills “for” Do you know and love Him personally?

We put no confidence in human effort, though I could have confidence in my own effort if anyone could. Indeed, if others have reason for confidence in their own efforts, I have even more! I was circumcised when I was eight days old. I am a pure-blooded citizen of Israel and a member of the tribe of Benjamin—a real Hebrew if there ever was one! I was a member of the Pharisees, who demand the strictest obedience to the Jewish law. I was so zealous that I harshly persecuted the church. And as for righteousness, I obeyed the law without fault.

I once thought these things were valuable, but now I consider them worthless because of what Christ has done. Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the infinite value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ. Philippians 3:3-8

For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ and become one with him. I no longer count on my own righteousness through obeying the law; rather, I become righteous through faith in Christ. Philippians 3:8b-9

I trust you Romans 3:20-22 (p.859) Religion = human effort to reach God. Christ = God’s WEIRD way to reach humans. Faith in Jesus = trust = relationship. Romans 5:1-11

Weird faith How do you get closer to a person? Talk, time, letters, praise, obedience Tell others about life with Him Spend time with others who know and love Him.
