This week, Pastor Chris about persevering in faith by continually drawing near to God with sincere hearts, holding fast to their hope, and encouraging one another in love and good works. Scripture warns of the danger of willfully rejecting the truth after receiving it, reminding us of the reality of God's judgment for those who turn away. Yet through trials and suffering, we are invited to trust in God's faithfulness, endure with confidence, and live by faith—knowing that His promises are sure and our reward is eternal.
