Unapologetic Proclamation P2
As we heard in the previous message in this series, the faithful church will always hold fast to the unequivocal authority of the word. Because this is true, the preaching of God’s word is our unconditional calling in the church. In 2 Timothy, we find Paul nearing the end of his life and knowing this, he urgently issues the charge to his young mentee to ‘preach the word’ – above all else – and without apology. It is not an easy road, yet there is no higher calling or greater expression of love than to faithfully preach God’s word. It is a light in the darkness and a hope for the hopeless!

Unequivocal Authority P2
Samuel was not a perfect man but he consistently lived a life of integrity, conviction and faithfulness. His ability to persevere and endure resulted from his reliance and deep connection to God. Samuel constantly sought the Lord and his will, refusing to capitulate to the culture of his day and God in turn graciously sustained and filled Samuel with power. His life was one of consistent obedience, service, love and fear of the Lord. Samuel ran the race and finished strong – a good and faithful servant indeed!
Christ is the Answer! P2
The theme throughout the old testament is that of the coming Messiah. We learn in today’s passage that Jesus – the Messiah – came not to negate the law, but instead, as the fulfillment of all the law and the prophets. He is the true Messiah for whom the people had long-awaited. Jesus came to rescue us from the penalty of sin and provide us with the true righteousness that leads to everlasting life, something we could never attain on our own but is only available by grace through faith. Christ is the “yes’ answer to all the promises of God!
