Authentic or Synthetic
Mark 3:31-35

Authentic = genuine; original; real
Synthetic = NOT reak; artificial

1. God's Rule or Self Rule
Mark 3:33-35; Matthew 10:35; Matthew 8:34-35
Self Rule will never lead to satisfaction.

2. Repent or Retreat
Mark 1:14-15
God's grace without our repentance doesn't work.

3. Genuine faith or Imitation faith
Mark 10:14-15
Synthetic Christianity prays to a God and doesn�t expect an answer.
God, I believe you know what you�re doing, even when I do not.

4. Discipleship or Desertion
Not outward appearance, but inward
Mark 2:114
John 6:66-67

Through a pastor 6%

Sunday School 5%
Crusade 5%
Programs 3%
