Discover the crucial difference between genuine faith and imitation faith in this powerful message about building your spiritual life on a solid foundation. Many Christians unknowingly substitute religious performance for authentic relationship with God, not realizing the eternal consequences of this exchange. This teaching explores Jesus' sobering warning in Matthew 7:21-23, where He declares He never knew those who called Him Lord and even performed miracles in His name. Learn why saying the right words, attending church, or even doing spectacular spiritual acts isn't enough without a personal relationship with Christ. The message dives deep into what genuine faith looks like—obedience to God's will, love as described in 1 Corinthians 13, and intimate knowledge of God rather than just knowledge about Him. Understand the Greek concept of 'ginosko'—the personal, experiential knowledge that comes from relationship—and how it transforms our understanding of faith. Discover the dangerous consequences of counterfeit faith: spiritual complacency, disillusionment during trials, and loss of joy and peace. This teaching provides practical questions for self-examination and concrete steps to build authentic faith. Perfect for both new believers and seasoned Christians who want to ensure their faith is built on the right foundation. This message will challenge you to move beyond religious performance to genuine relationship with God.
