What turning to the Lord is NOT:

• Blind obedience – Ephesians 4:22-24; 3:16-17

• Just adding church to my schedule – Hebrews 10:19-25

• Trying to earn salvation by doing enough good deds.

  • Romans 4:1-5, 11-12, 23-25

  • Abraham was justified because he believed God, which resulted in his obedience.

  • We can’t earn salvation!

• It’s a complete surrender …

  • Matthew 13:44-46; Galatians 2:20

• … that results in faithful obedience.

  • Acts 11:27-30

• When I turn to the Lord …

  • My wardrobe will change – I Timothy 2:9-10

  • My language will change – Ephesians 5:4
