What Will We Bend To?

Jul 14, 2024    Pastor Landon Moss

Pastor Moss used String Theory as an analogy to show that everything in creation bends to something, arguing that humans have a choice to bend either to God's truth or to self. He examined King Ahab's rebellion and self-absorption contrasted with King Jehoshaphat's desire to seek the Lord first before making decisions. The sermon challenged American Christianity's tendency to treat God like a therapist who exists for our benefit rather than as Lord whose will we should seek. Moss argued that many Christians bend God's truth to fit their lifestyles in subtle ways, just as the LGBTQ community does more openly.

In this message:

Everything in the cosmos bends to something, and humans alone have the choice of whose truth to bend to.We live in a society more concerned with confirmation of our feelings than objective truth despite our feelings.There's a misconception in American Christianity where we believe the Lord's will is the American dream.When we make decisions for our lives we need to decide based on the greatest Kingdom impact not the greatest worldly impact.When we seek our own benefit we will lose the Lord's blessing and our effectiveness in ministry.
