No other gods
Description

Is something else sitting on the throne of your heart? In this powerful message from the “Set Free to Live” series, Pastor Arthur Connor Jr breaks down the first commandment in Exodus 20:1–3. We live in a world filled with rival gods—money, career, and even our own desires—that compete for our attention.

Pastor Connor warns against the divided devotion that prevents us from experiencing true spiritual freedom. At Metropolitan Baptist Church, we learn that it is all about God; nothing should ever be placed before Him. If you’ve felt your focus shifting away from the Creator and toward the created, this sermon will help you realign your life and return to the only One who is truly worthy of your worship.

Before God ever gave a command, He gave a deliverance. Pastor Connor explains that we don't obey to get God’s love; we obey because we already have it. At Metropolitan Baptist Church, we explore a God who speaks, saves, and delivers. Learn why your obedience should be fueled by gratitude for what He has already done, rather than a payment for what you hope He will do. Stop trying to earn your way to Heaven and start living in the freedom of being already redeemed.
