The Hidden Danger of Picking and Choosing from the Gospel
The Daily Dose #0037
The Daily Dose #0037
True faith in the gospel requires submission to all of it, not just the parts that suit your preferences. When you pick and choose what to believe from the gospel, you’re not actually believing in God’s Word—you’re elevating your own judgment above His truth. This is not submission to Christ but self-worship. The gospel is not meant to be reshaped by your opinions, but to reshape your heart and mind according to God’s will.
You must accept the entirety of the gospel, even the parts that challenge or convict you. Rejecting the difficult or uncomfortable truths means you’re placing your own desires above God’s authority. Faith means trusting that God’s wisdom is far greater than your own, and surrendering fully to His Word, no matter how it confronts or stretches you.
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord." — Isaiah 55:8
