     | 3,184 views

    We have a high life expectancy; we've got plenty of time. So Peter’s warning that the end is near is shocking. Peter speaks as if this truth ought to change our thoughts and actions! Peter’s living life by a different paradigm!

    LIVING LIKE THERE’S NO TOMORROW 1 Pet. 4:7-11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. One day at the Church, Father O’Malley answered the phone, “Hello?” A voice said, “Is this Father O’Malley?” “Yes, it is.” “This is the IRS.

    We see many aspects of Jesus' character in the New Testament. One of His most fascinating attributes is His gentleness with those who love and need Him.

    If you would, please stand as we say together our memory Scripture for this quarter: Matthew 6:31-33 “Do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. “But ...read more

    A walk is a slow, steady, consistent movement from one place to another. A walk moves you from where you’ve been to where you’re going. At the end of Peter’s life, he looked back on his walk. As he looked back, what did he remember? What sustained him

    http://brushforkbanner.blogspot.com/ All throughout the New Testament, the Christian life is compared to walking.

    Paul preached about God’s grace whereas his opponents preached contrary to Paul’s message arguing that the law required circumcision. Why would a prisoner who has been granted freedom want to return to prison?

Some of those images might be warm and fuzzy, while some might be dark and dreary. Some might be reflections of personal ideals and biases—a Jesus who supports the ...read more
