Christ First Watford

Ephesians NOTES Lies about Ourselves: - You are not enough. - You are too broken / too sinful to come to Christ. - You can’t relate to your non-christian friends if you act too Christiany. - You have no value / worth / purpose. Lies about God/The Church: - The Church is ineffective / exclusive / divided / corrupt. - You don't need to prioritise church on a Sunday, as people won't miss you. - Church should be continually 'meeting all your needs'. - There is no space in church for your gifting. - God is so holy that he is unreachable. - Jesus was just a really good man. - God is permanently angry / disappointed with you. - Your heavenly father is as flawed as your earthly father. Lies about Others (family, friends, spouse, society): - They don’t really care about you. - You’re much better than them. - You’re much worse than them. - Your marriage isn’t really working. - They have it all together (Social Media 'best bits'). - You’re totally different to everyone else. - They won't understand even if you did
