    Abiding In Love And Faith

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 18, 2019
     | 4,772 views

    As believers, we are called to love our neighbor as ourselves. We are also expected to stand boldly upon the Word regarding the faith. This requires a delicate balance that is only possible through a close relationship with Christ.

    Abiding in Love and Faith 2 John 5-8 As we begin our study today, it is important to remember the context of John’s second epistle. The Gospel was being shared throughout the world and people were responding to the Lord as they heard and received the Gospel. Much of the appeal for the Gospel could ...read more

    Gratitude For The Faithful

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 10, 2019
     | 4,224 views

    Writing to the "elect lady," John was aware of the delicate balance needed to show grace to those who had wronged her while refusing to compromise her convictions and faith. We must love others, but we cannot compromise our faith for the favor of men.

    Gratitude for the Faithful 2 John 1-4 Our text today comes from the second general epistle the apostle John wrote. Along with the gospel that bears his name, and Revelation, John also wrote 1, 2, and 3rd John. It is believed to have been written around AD 85-95, near the end of John’s life. ...read more

    All who claim loyalty to Jesus must be committed to truth & love. We are to follow the truth and act with love toward one another. Love though is not to overshadow or overcome truth.

    2 JOHN TRUTH IN LOVE [Matthew 7:21-23 / 1 Corinthians 13:1-4] Second John is a brief epistle which could have been written on a single sheet of papyrus of standard size [5x9]. The preservation of this brief letter is no doubt a tribute to its spirituality and inspiration. In this short ...read more

    Greeting Fellow Believers Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Nov 17, 2020

    Our loyalty to Christ and other believers should supersede all other factors. We should receive and support every other Christian regardless of race, denomination, political party, or any other affiliation. This message expounds Philippians 4:10-23.

    For the last two messages we have addressed Paul’s expression of gratitude for the gift the Philippians had sent him. That is found in Philippians 4:10-20. There we discovered a wealth of revelation that has filled our hearts with peace and confidence. Those two previous messages focused on three ...read more

    How Are We To Know The Truth?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 9, 2023
     | 1,221 views

    The emphasis of Second John chapter 2 is on the basics of following Christ, of truth and love, and to warn against false teachers. We are not to just read the Word of God, but we are to obey it as well.

    When a believer knows how to walk in the truth, he or she should know how to act, should know what to do, is willing to learn, and is determined to do so. In verses 1-3: The “elder” is John, one of twelve disciples. He also is the author of the Gospel of John, the three epistles, and the book of ...read more

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Apr 30, 2018
     | 5,427 views

    The rubric that our Lord Jesus will use at His judgment seat to determine our rewards can be divided into three categories: positive, negative, and special.

    The Rubric for Rewards: What Is Jesus Looking For? (Matthew 25:14-30) 1. What is a rubric? The word has quite a few different definitions, actually. You might look it up. Webster lists the definition I am using as the fourth: “a guide listing specific criteria for grading or scoring academic ...read more

    Do not just read but obey. To walk in truth, one knows how to act, what to do, is willing to learn, and is determined to do so.

    In verses 1-3: • John was an elder, he loved the church, he was writing this letter to warn the church and congregation to watch out for false teachers. • The Truth is Jesus. o 1 John 2:21, I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the ...read more

    2023 is upon us and it will be a challenging year. There is such diversity in our church fellowships but not always harmony. This message examines Peter, James, and John to gain truths for our churches in the new year.

    MESSAGE FOR THE NEW YEAR 2023 – REVIEW OF WHAT IS ESSENTIAL DIFFERING PERSONALITIES IN A CHURCH FELLOWSHIP We have begun 2023.

     | 355 views

    The clear fact is that all humans need to make themselves ready by faith and good works to be ready at any time for the general judgement, the return of Christ.

    Friday of the thirty-second week in course 2024 Let’s spend a moment with our Gospel passage to find from Church teaching what Jesus is not saying by way of St. Luke.

    There are times when Christians can be inhospitable towards those who are seeking to deceive. Are we welcoming and giving credibility to those who are trying to make us question that Jesus is the Christ.

    You can listen to this sermon at https://www.npbc.org.au/podcasts/media 2 John 1-13 “Sometimes Be Inhospitable” A foundation interpretive principle of Scripture is that Scripture will never contradict Scripture.
