Point #1: KNOWLEDGE ABOUT GOD IS NOT EQUIVALENT TO BEING TRANSFORMED BY GOD!
Religion without transformation leads to hypocrisy.
Point #2: VISIBLE OUTWARD SIGNS DO NOT ENSURE INNER SUBMISSION!
Religion focuses on appearance. Relationship focuses on transformation.
Point #3: GOD DESIRES YOUR HEART TO BE TRANSFORMED BY THE HOLYSPIRIT!
Point #4: WHO ARE YOU TRULY LIVING FOR?
Romans 2:29b
And a person with a changed heart seeks praise from God, not from people.
