Philippians 3:18-19 says, "For many walk, of whom I often told you, and now tell you even weeping, that they are enemies of the cross of Christ, whose end is destruction, whose god is their appetite, and whose glory is in their shame, who set their minds on earthly things."
Therefore I am being an enemy of the Cross when...
- I am led by my emotions.
- I want what I want more than I want what God wants.
- I have an appetite for anything ungodly.
- I justify my sin.
- I recruit others to join me in this. (Notice the word "their.")
- The things I want are not things Jesus purchased for me on the Cross.
- My walk doesn't match my talk.
- My walk doesn't match His talk.
- I am headed for destruction.
- I'm not ashamed of what's shameful in me or my life.
- I exhaust my mind and gifts to acquire things that will not last.
