It is very important.

The enemy will try to convince you you're alone.

He'll remind you of your failures and your shortcomings

of the ungodly choices you've made,

and he'll say that makes you a reprobate

you're beyond the grace of God he's a liar

you're not alone

we can come to the cross of Jesus Christ and find restoration and renewal and hope.

But it's not an invitation just to blend into the crowd.

You're listening to Alan Jackson Ministries. You can get the outlines for this

episode at Alan Jackson.com slash podcast. If these messages help build you up or

encourage you to be a more fully devoted Christ follower,

leave us a five-star rating and review.

Hopefully that will help others find out about them as well.

Now it's on to Pastor Allen. Be blessed.

I want to continue the study we've been doing for several sessions talking about this

general theme of stepping out of the crowd.

It's a very biblical idea.
