When the Crowd Becomes a Church (18 of 18)
Series: The Book of James - Core Training
Larry Osborne
James 5:19-20
The Problem
(1) Church has become something we GO TO instead of something we ARE.
(2) We think of Christianity as a PRIVATE RELATIONSHIP.
(3) We have nowhere to live out the ONE ANOTHERS of Scripture.
Two Passages
Hebrews 10:24-25/ James 5:19-20 (Galatians 6:1/ Proverbs 14:12 and 2 Peter 2:21-22/ Galatians 5:19-21/ 1 John 1:9, Proverbs 10:12, 1 Corinthians 5:9-13)
The Principles
Three Things We All Need
A place where we are . . .
(1) Genuinely KNOWN
(2) Lovingly SUPPORTED
(3) Honestly CHALLENGED
Here's Why . . .
(1) Anonymity BREEDS SIN
John 3:19-21/ Ephesians 5:8-9
(2) Some things are too big to FACE ALONE
Galatians 6:2-5
(3) Confession is not just for CATHOLICS
James 5:16/ 1 John 1:9/ Proverbs 28:13/ Judges 10:9-16
Growth Group Homework
