Jesus Never Said That
The Lie That Burns Out Christians (Power in Weakness) by Shawn Weekly on November 11, 2025 is part of Jesus Never Said That

About This Message

Is the popular phrase "God will never give you more than you can bear" actually true? The pastor reveals why this theological lie is destroying your faith, leading to burnout, guilt, and a dangerous path of self-sufficiency.

If you've ever felt like a failure because you couldn't "handle it," this message is for you. Jesus didn't call you to carry your heavy burdens alone—He called you to a life of dependence.

Here is the challenging truth you need to hear: If you could bear the weight of your sin and suffering, Christ would not have had to come ([0:41:42]).

🔑 Key Takeaways in This Sermon:
The Theological Error: Why the phrase is a lie that leads to exhaustion and moral bankruptcy.

Contextual Clarity: The true meaning of 1 Corinthians 10:13—it's about temptation (sinning), not enduring worldly suffering ([0:46:23]).

Power in Weakness: How God uses your weaknesses, failures, and "thorns in the flesh" to perfect His power in your life (2 Corinthians 12:9-10) ([1:06:23]).

The "Rage Monster" Confession: The pastor shares his vulnerable struggle with anger and how he learned to repent of self-sufficiency and trade his heavy burden for Christ's light yoke (Matthew 11:28) ([1:07:16]).

The Challenge: Are you a "Christian Light" or a committed disciple?

🔥 Stop fighting God's process. Embrace the swap.
