The Problem With Externalism

Text: Ecclesiastes 7:16 Speaker: Tony de la Riva -- What does real Christianity look like, and what does true spirituality consist of? While man-made standards and external add-ons might seem spiritual, they can't change the heart. In fact, most of the time, externalism does far more harm in the believer's life than good. It hinders our growth in Christ-likeness, robs the authority of Scripture in our lives, and threatens the unity of the church. The only solution to the corrosive power of externalism is a sincere faith in Christ and the maturing, refining work of the Word of God in our hearts. -- Woodland Park Bible Church is located in North County, San Diego.
