Last Words

Join Pastor Allen Bonnell as we begin a powerful new sermon series walking through 2 Peter. Written from "Babylon" (Rome) under the fierce persecution of Nero, this letter contains the urgent last words of the Apostle Peter before his martyrdom. What would you say if you knew your days were short?In this opening message covering 2 Peter 1:1-4, we unpack three foundational truths that anchor us in a world directly opposed to God: -- Level Ground at the Cross: Discover why your faith stands in equal positioning with the greatest saints of history. We are all equally lost without Christ and equally saved by His imputed righteousness through the "Great Exchange." -- Relationship vs. Information: Intellectual data is not enough. Learn the crucial difference between merely knowing about God and intimately experiencing His living voice, presence, and daily grace. -- Power to Overcome: We are saved and sustained by the explosive dynamite power (dunamis) of God alone, not temporary human willpower or rugged self-reliance.Pastor Allen also shares a powerful update from our recent mission trip to Cosby, Tennessee, where 40 team members ran a Vacation Bible School born out of hurricane relief efforts and witnessed 8 teenagers come to Christ. Learn what it means to be granted a new divine nature, escape the corruption of this world, and experience a total spiritual metamorphosis in Jesus.
