Prepared To Suffer
By: Aaron Pratt
Series: (All)
Believers should expect to face persecution for the sake of Christ. We must be prepared to endure suffering and remain steadfast in our faith. Our trials are meant to strengthen us and bring glory to Christ. Nonbelievers, on the other hand, face suffering without the hope and support that believers have. We should take comfort in knowing that our suffering is temporary and that we can find strength in Christ during difficult times.
Scripture: 1 Peter 4:12-19

Jul 14, 2024Learning and GrowingAre the leaders in your church providing sound, biblical teaching? Do they prioritize doctrinal purity and preach the whole counsel of God without compromise? It's crucial to have leaders who are not afraid to discuss hard teachings and controversial topics, while avoiding a passive-aggressive or overly provocative approach. Those devoted to sound doctrine will prioritize seeking obedience and conforming their lives to the word of God. It's time we ensure that our leaders are focused on teaching us what we need to know, not just what we want to hear.Scripture: Acts 2:42-47, 2 Kings 23:1-8

Jul 7, 2024The Essential Marks of the ChurchWhen it comes to choosing a church, it's vital to focus on biblical principles rather than subjective criteria. Factors like the location, the personality of the pastor, and the appeal to consumer mentality should not take precedence. The church should not be driven by consumer preferences and superficial appeal. Instead, its focus should be on upholding the essential marks of the church, including honoring and worshiping Jesus Christ, equipping believers to spread the gospel, providing mutual encouragement and accountability, and fulfilling the requirements of Jesus Christ. It is crucial to ensure that the teachings align with the Bible, to practice sacraments, to exercise corrective discipline, and to engage in evangelism. These should be the central priorities when considering a church, rather than catering to personal preferences and trying to make the church solely attractive to unbelievers.Scripture: Joshua 1:1-9, Acts 2:42-49

Jun 30, 2024Wrath Is ComingBy: Luke GriffoChild sacrifice is a deeply engrained sin in the human heart and is central to Satan's strategies. God's people, from the beginning, have been called to be fundamentally opposed to child sacrifice. When they have failed in this calling, the results have been a downward spiral into demonic worship and, ultimately, the just wrath of God. Our modern age is no exception.Child sacrifice has been prevalent throughout history, and it is a pressing issue that demands our immediate and unwavering attention. Those who hate God love death, and as such, we cannot tolerate child sacrifice, which goes against the laws established by God. We must take decisive action to stop this practice, as turning a blind eye is not an option. It is imperative for churches to urgently and assertively address this issue, just as they do with other important matters.Scripture: Leviticus 18:21-30

Jun 23, 2024A Christian Response To Child SacrificeBy: Aaron PrattIt is crucial to understand the abhorrent practice of child sacrifice and its parallels with abortion today. The church must advocate for justice and equal protection rather than turning a blind eye. We must repent of apathy and speak up for the vulnerable. God strictly forbade child sacrifice, and we should address abortion with the same seriousness. We have to push for equal protection through legislation, balancing justice and compassion. It's time to stand up for what is just and right, just as God would want us to.Scripture: Leviticus 20:1-5
