In this powerful sermon, Pastor Steven unpacks the true meaning of living as an authentic Christian. Drawing on James 1:26-27 as the foundation, he challenges us to move beyond merely hearing God's Word and instead live it out. Pastor Steven explains how real faith is reflected in our words, our compassion for others, and our pursuit of purity in a distracting world. He emphasizes the power of our speech to build up or tear down, and encourages us to speak with wisdom and love. True faith, he says, is evidenced through action - helping the vulnerable and serving others as Christ did. Being in the world but not of it, keeping our hearts and minds focused on Jesus. Authentic Christianity isn't just about what we profess, but how we live. This message will show you how to align your life with Christ and reflect His love in all you do.
Living an authentic Christian life, as Pastor Steven teaches, means putting our faith into action each day. It's about taming our tongues, being mindful that our words carry immense power to either encourage and build others up, or to criticize and tear them down. As followers of Christ, we must strive to speak with wisdom, kindness, and love, even in difficult situations. But even more than our words, Pastor Steven emphasizes that true faith is exemplified through our actions—by reaching out with compassion to help the poor, the sick, the lonely, and the vulnerable among us. It's about selflessly serving others just as Jesus did throughout His earthly ministry. At the same time, living authentically for Christ means keeping ourselves pure and undefiled by the world around us. We are called to be in this world but not of it, fixing our hearts and minds on things above rather than earthly temptations. As we stay connected to Jesus and allow His love and truth to fill us and guide us, He will empower us to live with integrity, speak with grace, and serve with humility and compassion. This is the authentic Christian life that honors God and points others to Him.
