Kicking the Habit – Paul M. Williams Bethesda Shalom

    • Christianity

Hebrews 12:1-2
A man’s sickness is known by his symptoms.  The symptom is not the sickness, but rather, the symptom is the indicator of the sickness present.  As I look around at the Church of Jesus Christ in the West, I don’t know any other way to say it, I see a sick Church.  You say, Brother, judge not, and I say, Brother, how can I not when the symptoms are staring me in the face!!  When a man’s temperature is registering 42 degrees C on the thermometer and his face as pale as a sheet, I’m not waiting to ask him how he feels, I’m calling the doctor!! 
In like manner, when you see a Church that has lost its appetite for doctrine/teaching, it is symptomatic of a Church that is sick with sin!!  This sermon is a call for the purity of the Body of Christ.
