    #5 out of 2 Peter. In 2 Peter 2:1-22, Peter describes the false teachers who were leading the believers astray. He uses 4 Old Testament examples to validate New Testament beliefs and behaviors.

    WHEN IT’S OKAY BE A DUMB DONKEY! “But these, like unreasoning animals, born as creatures of instinct to be captured and killed, reviling where they have no knowledge, will in the destruction of those creatures also be destroyed, suffering wrong as the wages of doing wrong. They count it a pleasure ...read more

    What's That Smell?

    Contributed by Dr. Robert Crowder on Apr 9, 2021
     | 2,787 views

    Peter understood the defilements that the world holds. The ways of the world are an “entanglement” to living the Christian walk. THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF THE GOSPEL MESSAGE IS NOT THE SALVATION OF THE BELIEVER. THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF THE GOSPEL MESSAGE IS TRUE FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD!

    WHAT’S THAT SMELL? 2 Peter 2:20-22 For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first. 21 For it would have been better for ...read more

    Today's Message looks at the Bible as being unique and one of a kind, and how it is both trustworthy and reliable, and then the blessing that come when we trust it with our lives.

    The Bible: God’s Word for Our Day Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIvTrjYxmnw As most of you know, I’ve been working my way through the various doctrines of the Bible that have been the backbone of God’s remnant church, that is, the church that has continued to go back to the basics of ...read more

    Warning Of The False Teachers Series

    There have been these lying false prophets around through the ages. This would be like in a critical war the soldiers can’t just fight the enemy who wear a different uniform, but within their ranks wearing their same uniform are those who would work to see the enemy win to make a profit.

    Peter is writing to the scattered Christians. In his first letter Peter mentions who he is writing to, the scattered Christians of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia. Peter is writing from a Roman prison and the Lord has told him his execution is near. He writes this last letter to ...read more

    How Do You Overcome False Teachers In A Movement?

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Feb 24, 2024
     | 620 views

    Every church movement, every denomination has false teachers that they have to deal with. As Jesus taught, the wheat and the tares are growing together. Ravenous wolves, he predicted would rush into the flock.

    "But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves." -2 Peter 2:1 Every church movement, every ...read more

    Contending For The Faith

    Contributed by Don Campbell on May 8, 2023
     | 1,211 views

    Jude exhorts us "to contend for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints." A falure to clearly identify "the faith" has resulted in the proliferation of denominations and sects because divisions arose of opinions on matters of expediency.

    CONTENDING FOR THE FAITH “Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints” (Jude v.3) INTRODUCTION A. Many speakers and writers became fixated on ...read more

    Should We Change The Way We Do Church?

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jan 23, 2023
     | 3,564 views

    The decline in North American Christianity is prompting various efforts to revise the way we do church. Some of these efforts are clearly counterproductive. Acts 2:42-47 reveals eight practices that must be incorporated in any church model.

    Should we change the way we do church? That question is being asked by a lot of people in America. Something is not working as it should. Almost everyone agrees on that. For the first time in U.S. history, church membership fell below the majority according to a Gallup poll conducted in 2020. This ...read more

    "Peter, Feed My Sheep” (19 Of 20)

     | 1,562 views

    In this passage, Peter continues to deal with the opposition that faced Christians, and that still faces us today.

    Illus: This passage reminds me of the story of the fellow that went to the doctor. The doctor examined him closely, and told the patient, "I have some bad news and also some real bad news to tell you. But before I can tell you the bad news and the very bad news, you will first have to pay ...read more

     | 2,961 views

    Level Set: False teachers are not new, and they have always existed. The legitimacy of God’s Word (the Bible) is where we find our foundation and wisdom, and it is within its pages that we see the dangers of following those who are not grounded in the Word of God.

    The Dangers of False Teachers 2 Peter Sermon Series, Part 3 2 Peter 2:1-22 Introduction - Purpose: Peter gives guidance and reassurance to the growing church -- As a disciple maker his desire is to see others grow in knowledge of Christ -- Promise he stands on: the Gospel we/they are ...read more

    Work Out Your Salvation With Fear And Trembling

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Jun 17, 2022
     | 3,487 views

    Salvation is free. It is God's gift to mankind. Though free, it was purchased with the priceless blood of the son of God, Jesus Christ. It is the most expensive gift you will ever get. Guard it with all diligence and reverent fear. Don't toy with your salvation.

    TEXT: Phil 2:12-13 (NIV) "Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good ...read more

    The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 4:8-11 - Message 14 - Do Not Become Wallowing Sows In Bondage – Protect Your Freedom In Christ Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 1, 2024
     | 542 views

    The Galatians had exchanged the bondage of idolatry for the bondage of the Law. False teachers promise freedom but chain their adherents in bonds. Our freedom in Christ must be protected. Do not use your freedom as an excuse to sin.
