The Peril of the Pretender

In this message, The Peril of the Pretender, we examine the life of Judas Iscariot as a sobering warning to all who profess faith in Christ. Though Judas walked with Jesus, served in ministry, and appeared to be a true disciple, he was never transformed on the inside.

This sermon highlights the danger of a false profession and calls for honest self-examination. It reveals key warning signs seen in Judas’ life, including a deceptive profession, a critical spirit toward others, misplaced love, and a gradual drift away from Christ.

Through this passage, we are reminded that outward activity and association with Christ are not enough—true salvation is marked by inward transformation, a love for Christ, and a life changed by the power of God.
