LOVE WORTH FINDING 24TH JUNE 2025 TUESDAY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE BY ADRIAN ROGERS
TOPIC: Don’t Rely on a Counterfeit Christianity
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.” – 2 Timothy 4:3-5
Ponder This
If God loved us enough to give Jesus, what will He withhold? Don’t get caught up in a counterfeit Christianity. God is unsparing: He will not spare sin; He will not spare the sinner. But neither has He spared His Son, the Lord Jesus, so that you and I might be saved and have eternal life. The world is full of counterfeits. Make sure you have the real thing.
What if I told you, “Counterfeit dollar bills exist, so you should get rid of all of your money”? You would say, “Pastor, that’s stupid.” And you’re right! In the same way, there are counterfeit Christians, but don’t you let that keep you away from the Lord Jesus Christ. The counterfeit only proves the worth and validity of the real. They make the counterfeit because the original is valuable! Don’t let a counterfeit keep you out of Heaven. Jesus is real. Salvation is real. And you can be real if you’ll repent of your sin and trust Him. The world is full of counterfeits; make sure you have the real thing.
- How are you pressing into your relationship with God and getting to know Him more? How does getting to know Him more help prevent getting caught up with the counterfeits of the world?
- When have you had to practice discernment regarding counterfeit Christianity? How did you go to God with your questions and hesitations?
Practice This
Pray and ask God if you are following any counterfeit teachings or teachers. Press into time with God today to further reflect on real faith.
