Sermon Overview
Reidhead provides a "Compass" for the spiritual life. He argues that if these three principles are maintained, the believer and the church will stay on course. He warns that drifting from any one of these—relying on human wisdom, human energy, or human ambition—leads inevitably to spiritual shipwreck.
Key Principles
Authority of Word:Anchor your mind in the "Objective Standard" of the Bible; refuse to be led by subjective whims.
Dependency on Spirit:Practice "Total Dependency" on the Holy Spirit’s power; realize human energy cannot produce fruit.
Aim of Glory: Filter every motive through the "Supreme Aim" of God's Glory; kill all desire for human applause.
Synergy: Maintain the "Balance" of the Word (Truth) and the Spirit (Power) to avoid legalism or emotionalism.
God-Centered Existence:Shift your entire existence from "Man-Centered" to "God-Centered" in every detail.
Local Church Guardrails: Use the 3 Principles as "Guardrails" to protect your local church from drift.
Avoiding Extremes: Use the Word and Spirit balance to avoid the traps of Emotionalism and Legalism.
Foundation of Witness:Build your "Stable Witness" on these three non-negotiables to avoid spiritual shipwreck.
