Walking in Truth

Have you ever been to a church and it just seemed like the main purpose of the church was to make you feel good and entertained? Unfortunately, many churches today are all about quantity and amassing huge numbers of people, rather than the spiritual quality of the congregation. Pastor Johnny will be reminding you that in the Last Day's people will heap up for themselves teachers that tickle their ears, and give fluffy happy messages. You need to be exhorted, convicted, and encouraged!

One of the most dangerous sinful conditions you can have is religious hypocrisy. This is the main sinful condition that made Jesus extremely angry. Today, Pastor Johnny will be explaining how Jesus ate with sinners, trying to save them from their sin. Yet, the religious leaders were continuously rebuked by Jesus. It's a dangerous place to be in when you can go to church, sing worship songs, yet still live like unbelievers. Don't allow the leaven of the Pharisees which is hypocrisy to spread in your life.

As Pastor Johnny continues his teaching through 2 Thessalonians, he'll be reminding you that simply believing in a doctrine isn't the same as having saving faith in Jesus for your salvation. Even the demons believe there's a God and they are destined for Hell. It's more than having an intellectual understanding of the doctrine of salvation and of who Jesus is. You need to have a saving faith in Jesus which leads to obedience to Him. The only proof of salvation is having a transformed life.

Would you consider yourself a loving person? A better question to ask would be: Do those who work with you or live with you consider you to be a loving person? Pastor Johnny will be challenging you today to extend unconditional love toward others and to be more others- centered throughout your day. Having love is better than all of the spiritual gifts listed in the Bible! You can have the gift of prophecy, and you can have the gift of teaching, but if you don't have love all of that means nothing.

As Pastor Johnny continues his teaching series through the book of 2 Thessalonians, he'll be reminding you to extend grace to others because of the amazing grace God has extended to you. If God Almighty who is just in His judgment of your sin has chosen to forgive you and give you grace to be saved, who do you think you are not extended grace to those who have wronged you? You've been called as a Christian to not only receive God's love and grace, but to also help others experience it too.

In this second epistle of Paul to the church of Thassalonica, you'll hear how Paul was warning them against false teachers and heretical doctrines. This also serves as a warning to you as well! Pastor Johnny will be reminding you that there are even more heresies being taught in churches today, and the only way you can stand firm in the truth, is by being a student of the Word of God. Satan is always trying to pervert God's Word by tempting you to believe God isn't good in one way or another.

As Pastor Johnny begins his new teaching series through the book of 2nd Thessalonians, he'll be encouraging you to remain steadfast during trials and to draw strength from the Holy Spirit. The Bible say's: “Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit say's the Lord of Hosts”. No matter what difficulty you may face in your life, God who lives within you has already supplied you with the strength to overcome it. God desires you to press on and to have victory over all tribulation and sin!

Can you look back in your walk with the Lord and honestly say that you're more on fire for Him now then you were in the past? As Pastor Johnny continues his teaching series on the Rapture of the Church, he'll be exhorting us to return back to our first love if we've grown cold. Now is not the time for us to grow complacent in our relationship with the Lord, we need to press on and not grow weary in doing good! God desires that we fall more in love with Him each day.

It's very important for us as Christians to be aware of the times and season prophetically, as it lines up Biblical and which it relates to us currently. Today, Pastor Johnny will be challenging us to not only understand Bible prophecy for our own benefit, but also for the benefit of unbelievers. When you can explain how the Bible prophetically explains current events to unbelievers it's a great way to open up dialogue and to preach the Gospel. Even unbelievers recognize the world will end on

A major percentage of the Bible is made up of prophecy and it's fulfillment. This is why it's so important that we study prophecy and look in current events for them to come to pass. As Pastor Johnny continues his teaching series, he'll be encouraging us to be students of the Word, and to understand End Time prophecies because it causes us to live a more holy life. The fruit that comes from anticipation of the Lords return is always a pure life. We should be preparing ourselves to meet the Lord face to face.
