Theme: For true change to occur in a person's life, mere self-help reformation is not enough, for there must be regeneration of and filling by God's Spirit. In v. 24 of this passage, we see that not all change is equal, and we need to beware of superficial change. True regeneration is needed for real change to occur. In v. 25, we see the danger of the illusion of order. Don't be deceived by thinking outward success is good enough. Beware of mere self-help successes. II Peter 2:19-21, gives the warning of escaping the defilements of the world but not truly being converted. In v. 26, we read about the chaos and learn the true danger of neutrality. Make no mistake about it, you can't just improve your life. You need your life to be transformed by Christ, who can totally change your heart. We need to fill our lives with Christ and make much of Him!
