Box 1317, Baxley, Georgia 31515 Key points from the Lesson: Concludes a three part series focusing on the early New Testament church. The greatest zeal often comes at the beginning of a thing. Ecclesiastes 7:8 states that the end is better than the beginning. Zeal does not have to yield to disillusionment. Jesus has saved us from our sins and given us new life. We need to remember the first works. We need to remember the place of zeal from which we are fallen. We need to return to this place of zeal and remembrance of what the Lord has done for us. We need to remember the promises and proclaim them with zeal. Additional Passages: Ecclesiastes 7:8 Psalm 122:6-9 Isaiah 6:11-13 Isaiah 49:6 Acts 11:26 Ephesians 5:25-27 Revelation 2:5 Revelation 3:15-18

Hebrews Chapter 12 concludes with a final warning about the folly of failing to hear and heed God's revelation to mankind. Pastor Greg Barkman continues his expositional series.

Christ's letter to the church in Pergamum is both a powerful commendation and a solemn warning. Living where "Satan's throne" was, the believers courageously held fast to Christ's name even in the face of persecution and martyrdom. Yet the Lord rebuked them for tolerating false teaching and moral compromise within the church. This sermon calls Christians to stand boldly for the truth, reject compromise, guard the purity of Christ's church through biblical faithfulness, and rest in the glorious promises reserved for all who overcome by His grace.

This sermon argues that the revelatory spiritual gifts of prophecy, tongues, and knowledge were temporary sign gifts intended only for the foundational period of the early church. By analyzing the Greek grammar and context of 1 Corinthians 13, the preacher demonstrates that these gifts ceased when the canon of Scripture was completed, rather than at the Second Coming of Christ. The message strongly critiques modern charismatic manifestations as deceptive practices that contradict biblical teaching on the sufficiency and perfection of God's Word. It emphasizes that while sign gifts have ended, the virtues of faith, hope, and love remain permanent for believers today. The preacher urges the audience to reject extra-biblical revelations and focus entirely on the completed Bible as the sole authority for Christian life and doctrine.
