Four Misunderstandingsof Christianity

I thought it said……Three Wise MenThe Angel of DeathThe Seven Deadly SinsSaved by Faith Only

…found nowhere in the Bible

Preconceived NotionsToo often people believe what we are told rather than what we know to be true

One study shows misinformation remains even after cognitively corrected

“People who don't want to believe in another (highly emotional

system), for example, may not be open to even considering that the

new information is correct."

False Ideas of ChristianityChristianity is about making life betterChristianity is an inclusive belief systemChristianity is a part of our lifeChristianity is for everyone

It Is Not About Making Life BetterChristianity cannot make a better world

It cannot cure povertyIt cannot create social justiceIt will not save the planet

It Is Not About Making Life BetterChristianity may not improve your life

Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. 2 Tim. 3:12

"We must through many tribulations enter the kingdom of God.“ Acts 14:22b

It Is Not About Making Life BetterChristianity is about the next life

Hebrews 10:35-39

It Is An EXCLUSIVE SystemChristianity is fundementally:

IntolerantExclusiveLimited

It Is An EXCLUSIVE SystemJesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth,

and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” John 14:6

"Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.” Matthew 7:14

It Is A LifestyleNot one is a Christian “part-time”Colossians 3:1-11

A new lifeA new nameA new familyA new purpose

It Is Not For EveryoneJesus said He could only save Sinners

Mark 2:15-17Jesus said many were unsavable

John 9:39-41Limited audience

Matthew 5:1-9

Reality of ChristianityChristianity is about the next lifeChristianity is an exclusive and narrow wayChristianity is the entirety of our lifeChristianity is only for Sinners

How to Become a ChristianBelieve in Jesus – John 6:29Confess Jesus – Romans 10:9Repent and be baptized – Acts 2:38Live like Jesus – II John 9
