Sanctification Of The Saints Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 24, 2018

Sanctification is a process through God’s grace by which the believer is separated from sin and becomes dedicated to God’s righteousness.

(17) Sanctification of the Saints The concept of sanctification is not well understood, even in Christian circles, and I don’t hear it preached on today. However, it is in both the Old and New Testaments; Paul especially had a lot to say on the subject. I have always believed that the best way ...read more

Called To Be Saints

Contributed by Scott Spencer on Aug 22, 2013

There is something intensely individualistic and ego affirming in the idea that you make your own way. We would all like to think that we could pull ourselves up by our own boot straps, that we are ‘self-made people.’

Romans 1:5-7 4th in the series Called To Be Saints Through him and for his name's sake, we received grace and apostleship to call people from among all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith.

A Greeting To The Saints

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 16, 2018

At times the church faces challenges from without, but often the greatest danger may come from within. If we are to combat the struggles associated with false doctrine, we must be settled in the Word.

A Greeting to the Saints 2 Peter 1: 1-2 This second epistle of Peter is very similar in tone and intent to the second epistles of Paul. In large part, the second epistles were written to follow up on the first, and particularly to combat apostasy and false doctrine. Having written the first ...read more

The Sifting Of The Saints

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 25, 2022

This was something they could hold with one hand, and use the other hand to turn a handle that rotated a wire wheel inside the sifter basket. As they prepared a meal for their ...read more

Equipping Of The Saints

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Nov 15, 2023

Usually, each Sunday, I ask two questions, but today there are a few more questions: Why are you here today? Not here @ CPC, but here on earth? Why were you given this day?

Here’s what I believe: Because as Christians, God’s not done with you yet. Now, if you haven’t accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior, we’ll visit about that a bit later. Maybe you’ve asked yourself that question in a different form- Do I have a calling? Am I fulfilling my calling? What are my ...read more
