Death on SermonAudio

This sermon explores the concept of spiritual stability by examining Peter's urgent desire to remind believers of foundational truths before his death. The central message presents the list of virtues in 2 Peter 1:5-8 as a divine recipe for consistent spiritual growth, countering the common experience of emotional highs and lows in the Christian life. The speaker emphasizes that 'adding' virtue to faith is not a passive act but a deliberate, daily decision to glorify God in all aspects of life, similar to how muscle memory becomes natural through repetition. Through personal anecdotes and the analogy of an orchestra, the message illustrates how this foundational commitment to virtue allows other spiritual fruits to flow naturally, resulting in a life that is fruitful rather than barren. The tone is pastoral and encouraging, inviting the congregation to make a fresh commitment to this process of growth.

A celebration of the truth of the resurrection of believers after death.

Christ's death does more than merely remove sin; it fundamentally changes the believer's nature to restore a favorable relationship with God.
