Getting Ready for the Return of Christ! Part 1B
No one knows the exact time of the Lord’s return, so as followers of Christ, we are called to live in a state of readiness and watchfulness. Peter urges believers to hold fast to God’s promises and not be shaken by those who scoff at the idea of Christ coming again. These mockers overlook a key truth—God has already judged the world once, and He will do it again. But Peter also gives us a beautiful reminder: God’s timing is not delay, but mercy. His patience reflects His desire for everyone to have the chance to repent and turn to Him. This isn’t a message to cause fear—it’s a call to live with purpose and urgency. The Day of the Lord will come suddenly, but for those who belong to Him, it brings hope, not despair. So we stay faithful, stay alert, and allow His patience to inspire our mission.

Finding Joy Within Trials!
Today we begin a verse by verse study in the book of James. This series will challenge us to put our faith into action and allow the hard truths of James to convict and confirm that our faith is genuine. James speaks boldly, calling for lives that bear fruit and reflect true transformation. He opens his letter by encouraging believers who are facing trials—not by offering comfort alone, but by commanding us to consider it joy when we encounter them. But how can we possibly find joy in hardship? He opens his letter by encouraging believers who are facing trials—not by offering comfort alone, but by commanding us to consider it joy when we encounter them. But how can we possibly find joy in hardship? James reminds us that trials are actually opportunities—moments to align our thinking with God’s truth. Every challenge becomes a chance to discover a joy that is not fleeting but eternal. God allows trials because He is doing a deeper work in us, shaping us to be more like Christ. It’s through these trials that our faith is tested and refined, producing steadfastness that leads to spiritual maturity. As Charles Spurgeon once said, “Avoiding trials is avoiding God’s blessing.” So, how do you respond to the trials in your life? What greater work might God be doing in you through them?
The Devastating Corruption of False Teachers P2
In today’s episode, we’re unpacking a sobering warning from the apostle Peter about the danger of false teachers. These individuals are marked by pride, corruption, and a deep resistance to God’s authority. They speak boldly, but their words are empty—offering promises of freedom while they themselves remain enslaved to sin. They prey on the vulnerable, they are wolves in sheep’s clothing and distort the truth to serve their purposes. Peter compares them to Balaam, a man driven by greed and spiritual compromise. Once exposed to the truth, they chose to walk away—and now they face the weight of judgment. Their influence is subtle but destructive, leading others down a path of deception and ruin. This message is a powerful call to stay spiritually alert and discerning. As believers, we must know God’s Word deeply and guard our hearts against those who twist it for personal gain. Join us as we explore this challenging passage and learn how to stand firm in truth, even when deception sounds convincing.

Every Reason to Believe!
In a world full of noise, opinions, and “spiritual” ideas, Peter reminds us that our faith isn’t built on myth or feel-good stories—it’s anchored in real events and divine revelation. He wasn’t passing on secondhand rumors. He was there. He saw Jesus glorified with his own eyes and heard the voice of God on the mountain. But even more powerful than his personal experience, Peter points to Scripture as the ultimate, trustworthy guide.
The Bible isn’t just wise advice or spiritual poetry—it’s the very Word of God, breathed out through the Holy Spirit. It shines like a lamp in the darkness, guiding us until the day Christ returns in full glory.In a time when truth feels slippery and people often chase what’s flashy or new, Peter calls us back to what’s solid and unshakable: the gospel of Jesus Christ, confirmed by witnesses, and preserved in the written Word: the truth gives us every reason to believe!
