This sermon emphasizes the imperative to continue in the truths learned from Scripture, using the analogy of blind skiers relying on sighted guides to illustrate how believers depend on God's Word for direction in life. The central message urges Christians to move beyond mere intellectual learning to a state of conviction where the truth holds them, ensuring they remain steadfast amidst persecution and deception. Key theological themes include the inspiration and sufficiency of the Bible for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness, as well as the necessity of abiding in Christ to bear fruit. The tone is pastoral and instructional, encouraging the congregation to trust in the reliability of God's Word as their primary resource for spiritual growth and daily living. The sermon concludes with a reflection on the Lord's Supper, reminding believers that salvation is begun by faith in Christ's death and carried out by faith in His living presence.

We're glad you're with us. Let's open to the Psalms now as we join our teacher in The Truth Pulpit. https://www.thetruthpulpit.com

This message examines the biblical warning against deception in the end times, centering on the concept that individuals perish because they refuse to love the truth. The speaker argues that modern culture is increasingly susceptible to lies due to a loss of discernment and a willingness to accept narratives that align with personal desires rather than objective reality. Through examples ranging from sensationalized archaeological claims to political rhetoric and theological liberalism, the message illustrates how falsehoods often borrow authority, vocabulary, and fragments of truth to gain credibility. The core theological argument is that God sends strong delusion to those who have pleasure in unrighteousness, leading them away from salvation. Consequently, believers are called to test all things against Scripture, hold fast to what is good, and maintain a passionate commitment to truth as their primary defense against spiritual deception.https://atheycreek.com/

Jesus said, "Ye are the salt of the earth" (Matthew 5:13). But what did He mean when He described His followers as salt? What does it mean for Christians to be the salt of the earth in a world that is increasingly turning away from God and biblical truth? In this Bible study, we take a deeper look at Christian influence in a dying world and examine what Jesus meant when He said that His followers are the "salt of the earth." Salt was valuable, useful, penetrating, and capable of preserving. In a similar way, Christians are called to have a godly influence on the people, families, communities, and society around us. 📖 Matthew 5:13 (KJV): "Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men." One of the most important questions we will consider is: What does it mean to be the salt of the earth? Jesus was not simply giving His disciples a religious title. He was describing their responsibility and influence in the world. Christians are called to live differently, speak truth, demonstrate godly character, and point others toward the Lord Jesus Christ. We will also examine the Matthew 5:13 salt of the earth meaning and consider why Jesus immediately warned about salt losing its savour. What happens when believers become so much like the world that their Christian testimony is no longer distinctive? What happens when Christians compromise biblical truth, remain silent when they should speak, or fail to live out the faith they profess?

"If Need Be, I'll Be" The truth that His light reveals, His grace removes, His goodness replaces, and His guidance renews and readies us. The message centers on the truth that God does not merely deliver His people from bondage; He brings them under His loving government so He can guide, refine, renew, and ready them for everyday mission. Drawing from Numbers 15, 1 Peter 1, and Romans 12, the sermon calls believers to keep looking to the Lord, listening to His Word, and allowing Him to govern every step rather than being shaped by the world, past experiences, or what seems right in our own eyes. A major emphasis is that trials are not meant to ruin genuine faith but to refine it. Like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the furnace, believers can trust that God is present in the fire and can use what was intended to bind them as part of their freedom and testimony. Peter's phrase "if need be" becomes the heart of the message: "If need be, I'll be. If You'll be with me, we'll be in it together, so others can be blessed by what You are doing in me through it." God determines the "need be," controls the thermostat, and uses every season to conform His people to the image of Jesus. The sermon also describes the ongoing work of personal revival in four movements: God's light reveals what is wrong, His grace removes what does not look like Jesus, His goodness replaces it with His own character, and His guidance renews and readies us for what He has assigned us to do. Rather than being conformed to the world, believers continually present themselves as living sacrifices so that God can renew their minds and transform them from the inside out. Ultimately, the call is to live
