God wants balanced, anchored lives in His Church to lead and guide others to spiritual stability and maturity. Paul reminds us that we all start out as babies not just physically, but spiritually. In Ephesians 4, Paul explained that one of the characteristics of our immature state is that we are unstable and tossed about. Ephesians 4:14 says “that we should no longer be children (‘infants” NIV), tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting.” NKJV Think of this picture Paul paints for our minds. Spiritually immature people are floaters. Without the depth and stability of an anchor in the Word, they drift along with things, swept away with ideas before they even know if they are true or Biblical. Well-balanced lives come from being anchored in God's Word. In this sermon Dr. Barnett shares the critical importance of our lives being firmly anchored in the Word of God.
