Sad, but true

10/05/2026

Peter had walked with Jesus, witnessed miracles, heard His teaching, and boldly claimed he would never fall away. Yet only hours later, fear, pride, spiritual carelessness, and the pull of the world brought him to the point of denying that he even knew Christ.

In this message from Mark 14:66–72, we examine how Peter fell, what he later learned from that failure, and how the same dangers can quietly weaken our own walk with the Lord. Are we following Christ closely, or only at a safe distance? Are we standing firm in faith, or becoming too comfortable with the world around us? This message is a serious call to humility, diligence, courage, and faithfulness as citizens of a kingdom that is not of this world. Watch the sermon, examine your heart, and ask whether your life truly shows that Jesus Christ is your Lord.

Some Signs of a Christian Narcissist

1. They appear holy but lack humility.
They focus on looking righteous while resisting correction and accountability.

2. They weaponize forgiveness.
They pressure others to forgive quickly while refusing to acknowledge or change their own harmful behavior.

3. They believe they are spiritually superior.
They act as though they are closer to God than everyone else.

4. They use Scripture to control people.
Bible verses become tools for manipulation instead of love, wisdom, and truth.

5. They demand unquestioning submission.
Any disagreement is labeled as rebellion, disrespect, or a lack of faith.

6. They lack genuine compassion.
They may speak about love and grace but show little empathy when others are hurting.

7. They seek admiration through ministry.
Serving God becomes a way to gain praise, influence, or status rather than to glorify God.

8. They refuse to take responsibility.
Mistakes are blamed on others, spiritual attacks, or misunderstandings instead of being honestly confessed.

9. They maintain a polished public image.
People at church see kindness and generosity, while family members experience control, intimidation, or emotional abuse.

10. They use God to justify abusive behavior.
They claim divine authority to silence, shame, or dominate others rather than reflecting Christ’s character.

A person can be deeply involved in church and still display narcissistic traits. Faith should never be used to excuse manipulation or abuse. Healthy Christians reflect humility, accountability, compassion, and genuine love for others.

Do we truly honor Jesus as Lord, or do we merely acknowledge Him with our lips while keeping our hearts at a distance? What happens when the men entrusted with upholding God’s law put the Son of God on trial?

In today's message from Mark 14:53–65, we look at Jesus before the Sanhedrin, the false witnesses, the corrupt proceedings, His stunning declaration that He is the Christ, and the abuse He willingly endured as He moved toward the cross.

But this passage does more than expose the injustice done to Jesus. It forces us to examine our own hearts. Watch this message and consider what it really means to esteem Christ, obey Him, and follow Him without hiding your face from Him.
