The Path to Death
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”
Proverbs 3:5-6
“Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.””
John 14:6-7
“Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.”
Mark 8:34
To know God, we have to die to self
How do we destroy the idle of self?
When you have the right voices, you make the right choices
You can’t disciple others, if you’re not discipled.
Acknowledge Him= Know Him
His Kingdom cannot come, until our Kingdom goes.
Walking with God will destroy the idol of self
