What are the Consequences if We Get it Wrong | Todd Arnett

This message addresses the personal challenge of aligning our lives with God's will, focusing on teachings from Colossians 3, Ephesians 4, and Romans 7. It reveals the futility of trying to change ourselves solely through willpower and emphasizes that true sanctification isn't about moving from grace to self-reliance. Instead, we're called into a partnership with the Holy Spirit, who transforms our deepest desires. Attempting to change on our own risks making us either hypocrites, maintaining a façade, or leading us to abandon our faith when we can't meet expectations. The key takeaway is understanding that confession, reconciliation, and submission to the Spirit are essential resources from God for real transformation. By trusting in His power, rather than trying to impress Him, our desires begin to shift, resulting in genuine, Spirit-led growth.
