The New Self
Timothy Keller Sermons Podcast by Gospel in Life
Understanding Authentic Change in Christianity
Christianity is fundamentally about inner transformation rather than mere behavioral modification. True change involves becoming a new person, which surpasses the adoption of new actions. Over the past few decades, there has been a notable shift in societal moral views, especially around personal morality and sexual ethics, moving away from traditional biblical standards. This shift is attributed to the previously external social pressures that dictated behavior; people conformed outwardly without an authentic internal transformation. With the reduction of these external pressures, many have returned to their inherent beliefs, revealing that their inner selves had not truly changed. Authentic change in Christianity calls for an inward renewal that leads to genuine behavioral shifts, emphasizing that true morality stems from personal conviction rather than societal expectation.
