1. Message In 2 Peter – Number 1 – Learning From False Teachers – Part 1 (2 Peter 2:13) Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 27, 2025

Before Peter passed to be with the Lord, he set out for the scattered Christians, pointers to recognise and refute false teachers who were gaining traction among Christians. He exposed these subversive agents of the devil. I am examining them, then adding cautions so we don’t follow.

1. MESSAGE IN 2 PETER – NUMBER 1 – LEARNING FROM FALSE TEACHERS – PART 1 (2 PETER 2:13) [1].

Save Your Sheep

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 4, 2025

A call to reject restored sacrifices and shadows, embracing Christ’s finished work through the torn veil and shepherding believers toward the true Lamb.

There was a moment in ancient Israel every family knew too well. A father would step into the small pen behind the house. His children would stand at the doorway, quiet, watching. He would kneel among the gentle, wool-covered shapes and place his hand on one particular lamb—soft, innocent, ...read more

From Heartbreak To Hope

Contributed by Kory Labbe on Dec 5, 2025

Heartbreak may feel like the end of your story, but Jesus specializes in meeting us in the ashes and raising hope from the wreckage. This passage shows us how He moves toward us when we feel most lost.

The Peace Altar

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 20, 2025

God gives peace before the battle, speaks identity before performance, and empowers fearful people through His presence, not their strength.

Most of us assume peace comes after things change. After the diagnosis is clear. After the conflict is resolved. After the money situation stabilizes. After the fear finally loosens its grip. We tell ourselves, “I’ll have peace when the battle is over.” But the story of Gideon opens with a ...read more

God Uses The Ordinary To Do The Extraordinary

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 24, 2025

It is amazing how some things never change. For example, when Christ was here on earth they had two kinds of men, as we have today. • They had the ordinary man • They had the extraordinary man

It never ceases to amaze me the people that God chooses to do His work. Such as… (1) David. In 1 Samuel 16:1-12 we read how… • Saul had been rejected as king and God sent Samuel to anoint a new king. Vs. 1-3 • Samuel went. Vs. 4-5 • Jesse and his sons were summoned to the sacrifice vs ...read more
