Episode 12: Self-Centered Theology

If Jesus came only for you, then He would be a failure. The entire mission of God to redeem a people for Himself from every tribe, tongue, and nation would be a failure, too.

This is self-centered, man-pleasing preaching at its finest. It appeals to the flesh. It makes the individual the major focus of the gospel. That’s what we want to hear if we are self-centered.

The genuine gospel is much bigger than the individual. It is a God-sized gospel. A God-sized gospel is wayyyyy bigger than the supposed “hole” in any one individuals heart.

We don’t need more self-centered theology. We need more God-Centered Theology.
