Bible Question: Hi Pastor Glen, I was hoping that you would explain matt 23:8-12. I am having a hard time understatnding who is truely following Christ. I know that we will know them by thier fruit. Is that fruit truely if they follow the Bible or not. |
Bible Answer: If they are walking in their own understanding, they are not following Christ. Proverbs 3:5-6 tells you to trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding. v.6 In all your ways, acknowledge Him And He shall direct your path. Matt 23:8-12 tells us to humble ourselves to him.When you humble yourself to Christ, you have a gentle spirit. Not having the attitude as if you know everything. Not having a prideful spirit. |
