About this sermon

Sin uses people, religion judges people. Sin breaks the rules, religion keeps the rules. Sin tends to be unrighteous, religion tends to be self-righteous. Both need to repent to Jesus.   This clip is excerpted from the sermon "Of First Importance," part #2 of our current sermon series, God's Work, Our Witness. It was recorded at Mars Hill Church Orange County in California and released online on December 12, 2011.   Watch the full sermon here: http://marshill.com/media/gods-work-our-witness/of-first-importance
