What are false refuges that people may trust in?

Answered in 1 source

False refuges include reliance on church membership, morality, or good works instead of Christ for salvation.

In contrast to the true refuge found in Christ, many people place their hope in false refuges such as church attendance, moral behavior, or adherence to social norms. The sermon highlights examples like Sisera, who sought shelter in a tent but met his demise instead. Just as his false refuge failed him, so too will the reliance on human efforts or traditions fail when facing God's judgment. It's critical for believers to understand that only Christ can offer true protection and acceptance before God. Every person must ensure their trust lies solely in Christ, the sinner's only refuge.
