Truth: Wisdom in the Word
As we approach the end of the age, the teaching and learning of the Scriptures will no longer be hidden in a classroom with a handful of saints who choose to go deeper. God will promote the urgency to understand the truth of the written Word to a prioritized status as deception in the world continues to arise. The Bible serves as our guide into maturity, wisdom and power from God. So essential is the need for us to be anchored in the truth of God’s Word that Paul wrote to the church at Thessalonica that only those who love the Truth will survive the end-times deception and delusion that will rock the planet. How is your relationship with your Bible? Casual? Uninterested? Committed? Convicted? Consuming? What you believe from the Word will serve as your rescue as we approach the end of days. To neglect the written word will be for some the losing of their souls.
Curiosity To Conviction
If there has ever been a time of urgency for us all to get anchored in the truth, it is right now. Scripture is crystal clear that the time prior to the Second Coming of Jesus will be characterized primarily by an atmosphere of intense and persuasive deception. Jesus actually taught that the deception will be so strong that, if God did not sovereignly prevent it, even the elect saints of God would believe the lies. This should get our attention. In the first of several messages on the coming deception, we learn from Jesus how we all must take seriously our need to be people of the truth so that we remain untouched by both the spirits of deception and the messages that are coming forth from them.
Full & Final Victory
One of the healthiest and most helpful thing for a Christian to occasionally do is to remind himself of the end of the story. If we ever lose our grasp on the truth that WE WIN, we will likely find ourselves in a deep struggle. There is no denying that the Christian life is a war. It is more than war, but it is never NOT war. In the present day when evil is abounding, deception is increasing, division is multiplying, and warfare is exploding, we must stay locked in to the promise that an unavoidable victory belongs to the followers of Christ. In Revelation chapter 21, we are promised four new and never-ending realities that will be ours. These promises motivate and empower us to continue on during the wars and pains of this earthly life. Jesus Himself has promised all who trust Him a full and final victory.
Unpacking Sonship
In the Apostle Paul's writings, the concept of sonship refers to the spiritual adoption of believers into God's family as His children through faith in Jesus Christ. This adoption transforms a person's status from being enslaved to sin, fear, or religious legalism into one of freedom, intimacy, and inheritance as a beloved heir of God. It's not about striving, working, or earning a good standing with God. It is all about but a divine act of grace, where the Holy Spirit is given to believers as a seal and witness of this new relationship, enabling them to approach God as "Father" with confidence and cry out to Him in a personal, relational way. Knowing this is a powerful key to transforming our understanding of the Christian experience.
The Hollowed-Out Church
In this generation of American Christians, God is doing both demolition and renovation to the churches we attend. Much like the seven letters to the churches in the Book of Revelation, we see how Holy Spirit is exposing what is lacking in our own local churches. Apathetic church members, disqualified leaders, false doctrines, and immoral living have been tolerated by Christians for decades. The Lord is saying, "No more!” Hollow reputations of superficially “successful” churches are in the crosshairs of Holy Spirit. He desires the reputation of Jesus to be the focus, not the reputation of churches and leaders that seem alive but are actually dead. Jesus has words for churches like this, and He calls us all to listen to Him.
