4 Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than going to a garage makes you an
automobile - Billy Sunday
5 Stop going to church everywhere and start belonging to church somewhere - Matt Handler
6 The difference between listening to a radio sermon and going to church… is almost like the
difference between calling your girl on the phone and spending an evening with her. - Dwight L.
Moody
TS: Let’s see what the Word of God has to say about the church.
(MAE, kindly put the following: Galatians 5:6, 1 Corinthians 13:2b and James 2:14 in THREE
COLUMNS in a single slide)
A faith that does not express itself through love is not authentic faith.
7C A faith that does not express itself through love is of NO VALUE. - 7D FORMLESS
The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.
7E THE BEST EXPRESSION OF FAITH IS LOVE
His faith is only in his words. His words are the only place where you can see any evidence of his faith
and it is.

8A Galatians 5:6 CEV
If you are a follower of Christ Jesus, it makes no difference whether you are circumcised or not. All that matters
is your faith that makes you love others.
HIGHLIGHT 8B If you a follower of Christ Jesus – 8C Connected Vertically
HIGHLIGHT 8D faith that makes you love others. – 8E Connected Horizontally
8F THE PIECES THAT ONLY COUNTS ARE THOSE WHO ARE CONNECTED TO BUILD
ACCORDING TO PLAN AND PURPOSE.
9 He who does not have the church as his mother, does not have God as his father - Augustine of Hippo

10A Galatians 5:13 CEV
My friends, you were chosen to be free.
HIGHLIGHT 10B chosen to be free
10C Free from the guilt of sin because the believer experienced God’s forgiveness
10D Free from the penalty of sin because Christ died for the believer on the cross
10E Free from the power of sin in daily
In essence, it is saying, 10F YOU WERE SAVED, Therefore, you were saved 10G TO SERVE and
NOT SAVED BY SERVING.
***
11A Galatians 5:13 CEV
My friends, you were chosen to be free. So don't use your freedom as an excuse to do anything you want.
HIGHLIGHT 11B an excuse to do anything you want.
The number one reason we don’t have the time or energy to serve others is that we’re preoccupied with our own
agendas, dreams, and pleasures.
I can’t
I don’t know how
I don’t have time
I’m all alone
I’m afraid
I won’t
– 11C SELFISHNESS
12A WHAT IS A PICTURE OF SIN?
If I asked you to draw a picture of sin, what would you draw? You could 12B picture an arrow missing a
target. That means what sin is—12C falling short of the glory of God. You could 12D picture a clenched
fist. Sin is 12E rebellion against God.
There is another picture you could 12F picture —a man bent over, gazing at himself. When Adam and Eve
were in the Garden of Eden, they were able to behold the face of God. They walked upright. They talked with
God face-to-face in the garden.
But Satan said to them, “You can be like God!” Instead of looking to God, you can look to yourself. But as he
seeks to take the place of God, he becomes bent over on himself. Instead of loving God and trusting God and
obeying God, he loves himself, trusts himself and serves himself. 12G Instead of worshipping God, he
becomes his own God.
That’s what sin does to us. That’s the condition of the man James is describing. He claims to have faith in God,
but he does not care about other people. He sees a person in need. He does not want to get involved.
13 “If you are idle in Christ’s work, you are active in the devil work.” – Charles Spurgeon
Whether you serve or not, someone will benefit from your life, it is either God or the devil.
14 WHEN YOU FIND HUNDREDS OF REASONS NOT TO CARE TO FOR OTHERS, WITH YOUR
ONE AND ONLY LIFE. MAY THE CARE OF GOD’S ONE AND ONLY SON, GIVE YOU
THOUSAND REASONS TO SERVE THEM.
15 Mark 8:35 LB
“If you insist on saving your life, you will lose it. Only those who throw away their lives for my sake and for
the sake of the Good News will ever know what it means to really live.”
