This sermon emphasizes the need to cut off sin and the passing nature of
worldly pride. It highlights the danger of seeking greatness for
ourselves in various fields without submitting to the lordship of Jesus
Christ, as it can lead to self-worship. The importance of surrendering
our will to Jesus is stressed to avoid self-deception and to align our
dreams and plans with God's will.

To sin, we need to cut it off. And the world is passing away the pride
of life. Wanting to make a name for ourselves, like Brother Downs
shared, whether to be a great preacher, or whether to be a great
businessman, whether to be a great sports athlete, or whether to be a
great musician.

Whatever our greatness, our aspiration is, it has to come under the
headship of Jesus Christ. Otherwise, we'll have another head. S-E-L-F.

You'll be worshiping your Lord, yourself. God has given us a will, and
that will has to be surrendered to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. If we
don't surrender our will, then we'll deceive ourselves.

We'll have all of our dreams and hopes and plans, and we'll want the
Lord to come along with them, like we shared last week, rather than
being yielded to the Lord Jesus Christ and the Spirit of God.
