A Charge to Continue | Honoring Dr. Ralph Sexton

In Peter’s second letter, he is locked in on warning the church about remaining faithful in a culture full of deceit, wickedness, and lies. He also warns of false teachers and preachers who take bits and pieces of the Word of God, twist it, and turn it for their gain. Toward the end of his letter, he warns us that one day, Christ is returning, and as that day draws near, the level of false teaching and preaching will increase. All of us are on a journey. God has given us life; for that, we are so thankful and blessed! But on this journey, you'll need to pack and take some stuff. If you're headed for on-campus college life, you will pack your entire world into a few boxes and bags and take it with you. But no matter what your next step is, we all need some absolute truth to be packed into our daily outing called life… 1. Someone is going to challenge your Faith! 2 Peter 3:1-4 2. Some day, this will all be over! 2 Peter 3:8-10 3. God expects you to be somebody! 2 Peter 3:11-13 Pursuing Christian maturity and deepening knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ will stabilize your journey and prevent a Christian from being led astray and arriving at the wrong destination in life.  Jesus said if you love me, obey my commandments. He also said, pick up your cross and follow me!
