Be Christological

4 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already. 4 Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 5 They are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them. 6 We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

The Real Jesus Makes a Real Difference

As you know, we’ve titled this series “Secure”. Security is a big deal in our world. Billions and billions of dollars are spent each year with the aim of keeping our stuff, safety, and health secure for this brief period of time that we have on this earth. My friends, God is ALSO concerned that you would feel secure – in the present. But, the security He’s after isn’t related to your stuff or even your health…but for your eternal soul. He wants you to KNOW that you are HIS! He wants you to be able to lay your head on your pillow each night knowing that no matter what happens, you’re good because you’re in HIM!

1st John will help us to see that this security God intends for us to have is rooted in an Accuracy with regard to Jesus that leads to Authenticity with regard to Faith.

The Rich Young Ruler

Welcome, Pat Abendroth, the lead teaching pastor at Omaha Bible Church as he walks us through the Rich, Young Ruler in Matthew 19:16-30 and reminds us how we are justified by faith alone in Christ Jesus alone.

Seeing Jesus As We Ought To

The introduction to Hebrews starts with a loud statement of the passing from one covenant to another. Where God spoke through prophets, now he speaks through his Son. We can directly speak with God through Jesus. All of this is due to Jesus’ life, sacrifice and conquering of death. His entire set of attributes is proof of his deity and his ability to deliver us from our sin. He is worthy of every second of worship we offer to Him.

Forgiveness – The Key to Freedom

“Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.” Colossians 3:13

Transforming Hope

We will face trials and tribulation in this present life. But, Peter turns our attention to hope. Not just any hope, but a transforming hope, and a hope only found in Jesus Christ!

A Proven Faith

After pointing us to a future promise of enternal life and a future in heaven with God, Peter turns us back to our current but temporary reality: this life will give us trials and tests used to build, shape and fortify our faith.

An Incomparable Salvation
