The True Jew-Rom 2:17-29

The London preacher Spurgeon taught, "Every Sunday morning some folks take out their godliness and touch it up, while they are turning the brush round their best hat. Many women, after a fashion, put on the fear of God with their new bonnet. When the Sunday is over, and their best things are put away, they have also put away their best thoughts and their best behavior. We must have a seven-days' religion, or else we have none at all. Periodical godliness is perpetual hypocrisy." What about you, friend? Like the Jew, are you trusting your religious leanings, rather than Christ alone? If you have been trusting in your baptism, confirmation, church membership, or knowledge of Bible doctrine, or even in Christian upbringing...if you have been trusting in anything other than Jesus Christ and his death upon the cross in your place, throw whatever it is completely out of your mind. Abandon it. Stamp upon it. Grind it down. Dust off the place where it lay. Turn to Christ alone, trusting Him alone. If you do not have a church home, we'd love for you to join us Sunday for "The True Jew," a study in religious hypocrisy and an exposition of Romans 2:17-29.
