Grow Up & Live Differently | Spiritual Authority - Sons & Daughters | Chad Everett

What does it look like when our lives actually reflect who we are as sons and daughters of God? In Spiritual Authority: Sons & Daughters | Grow Up & Live Differently, Pastor Chad Everett challenges believers to examine the areas of our lives that may still be controlled by our flesh instead of led by the Spirit. Galatians 4 tells us that an heir, while still a child, may live no differently than a slave, even though the inheritance already belongs to him. In the same way, we can belong to Jesus and still live in bondage to attitudes, behaviors, emotions, and patterns that do not reflect who we have become in Christ. “Sons and daughters are not supposed to act like slaves. We’re supposed to act differently. We’re supposed to think differently. We’re supposed to talk differently. We’re supposed to believe differently. We’re supposed to control ourselves differently.” Through Galatians 4 and 1 Corinthians 3, Chad confronts spiritual immaturity and challenges us to recognize carnality in our own lives. Envy, strife, division, offense, uncontrolled anger, gossip, and other areas where our flesh remains in control can keep us living beneath the freedom Jesus purchased for us. This is not a message of condemnation. It is an invitation to grow up, come out of bondage, and live in the freedom and inheritance Jesus has made available to us. “Our spiritual maturity will determine our spiritual experience.” God has called us to be sons and daughters whose lives are led by the Spirit. It is time to grow up, leave slavery behind, and live differently. The Roads Church - https://theroadschurch
