Drop The Unbeliever’s Playbook

1 Corinthians 2:14-16

Introduction

Main idea: Two ways to think that will help you drop the unbeliever’s playbook for life and pick up Christ’s play book.

1. Recognize what the unbeliever cannot understand
   • “They said to you, ‘In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.’ It is these who cause divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit.” —Jude 1:18-19
   • Romans 1:21
   • Ephesians 4:17-19
   • 1 Timothy 6:5
2. Recognize what the believer can understand
   • 1 John 2:26-27

Application

• 2 Corinthians 10:5

Three ways to pray:

• Luke 24:45 Thank God for opening your eyes
• Psalm 19:14 Pray for God to expose sin
• Psalm 119:18 Pray for God to open your eyes

One sure way to study: Ephesians 4:13-16
