06-10-25 part 2: When God Speaks, We’re Accountable

2025-06-10

Section One The message opens by confronting a common misperception—that people are ignorant of God’s voice. Romans 10:18 is cited to affirm that God’s message has gone out to all the world. The heavens, creation, and conscience declare His glory and truth. The issue isn’t God’s silence—it’s humanity’s selective hearing. Listeners are reminded that revelation is not limited to written Scripture; it extends to the natural world, which broadcasts the knowledge of God universally and without pause.

Listeners are reminded that revelation is not limited to written Scripture; it extends to the natural world, which broadcasts the knowledge of God universally and without pause.

Section Two

The discussion moves to Romans 1:20, which explains that people are “without excuse” because God’s invisible qualities—His eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen through what has been made. The truth is that no one will stand before God and say, “I didn’t know.” God has made Himself evident, and the human heart is equipped with a conscience that either accuses or excuses. This is not just a theological warning—it is a call to responsibility for every person.

Section Three

1 Corinthians 3:13 enters the conversation next, teaching that every believer’s work will be tested by fire. Salvation is secure, but rewards are not. What is built in obedience to Christ survives; what is done in pride or for self-glory burns up. The point isn’t to create fear, but urgency. We must live intentionally, knowing that what we do for the Kingdom has eternal value. The encouragement is to make each choice matter—because every motive and act will one day be revealed.

Section Four

The session concludes with a reminder from 2 Corinthians 11:3 about not drifting from “the simplicity that is in Christ.” The complexity of ministry, culture, and performance can blur the core of our faith. The Gospel remains simple: love God, follow Jesus, be led by the Spirit. When we return to that foundation, we find clarity and strength. The charge is to stop complicating obedience and to begin walking in humble trust again—because what God wants is clear, and He’s already spoken.
