Leave a Comment / First Peter, Podcast /

In today’s lesson we will study First Peter 5:7-8. This is the beginning of Peter’s teaching on spiritual warfare and it begins with a right understanding of God’s love for us. This is a necessary part of true spiritual warfare because when the battle gets hot we must rest the who God is and of His care for us. This leads into Peter’s statement that we must be self-controlled because the devil is like a roaring lion looking to devour people. This point of being self-controlled is of tremendous important because it is one of the fruits of the Spirit as listed in Galatians 5. This podcast will most certainly challenge you so do not miss it.

First Peter 4:18-19 are the verses we will tackle today. Peter is still on the subject of suffering for Jesus and this will take us into a couple of very challenging directions. The first being Peter’s statement that it is hard for the righteous to be saved, and then, what the end will be for those who die without Christ. We will also get into the dimension that we are to do good, not only in times of easy and peace, but even in times of great difficulty and persecution. You need to listen to this podcast.

First Peter Part 30 – 4:10-11

Last week we studied First Peter 4:7-9. Verse 7 begins with, “The end of all things is near” and Peter continues his thought through verse 11. We will study verses 10-11 today where he presents a simple, idea that since the end of all things is near we should use our gifts to serve others. So we will look at what it means to serve others through the various gifts that the Lord gives to His people. This is a very necessary lesson for all those who want to obey the Lord’s command to love others as Jesus loves us by faithfully serving others.

Today we will study 1 Pe. 4:7 that begins with, “The end of all things is near” and end at verse nine. Peter lays out this idea through the eleventh verse by presenting four things that we should do because the end of all things is near. We will only examine the first three points this week and leave the fourth for our next lesson. These are some challenging issues that are very practical for those who want to be an authentic follower of Jesus. Since the end of all things is near we should want to know how to live prepared and this Peter clearly addresses.

First Peter 3:1-6 are the verses we will study in today’s lesson. In these verses Peter will address some very important issues about godly womanhood in general and specifically on godly wives. The importance of what Peter is writing about cannot be overestimated because how the character of women and wives profoundly affect a marriage and children. This message is very challenging for women because it focuses upon them and their needs. But men need to hear this message so they can grow in understanding of how to meet the needs of their wives.

In keeping with our study of First Peter we come to a portion of his teaching in chapter 2 verses 21-22 that address the subject of suffering. I know that suffering is not a happy topic, so we are prone to avoid it like a plague. Yet suffering is a reality from which we cannot escape. This means that it is very wise for us to learn about suffer so that we can be victorious through it when it does come our way. In this study we will learn how we are to suffer as true followers of Jesus. You will be challenged by this lesson.

In our continuing study of First Peter we will investigate verses 11-12 of chapter two. In these two verses we will hear Peter’s passionate appeal that we live as aliens and pilgrims in this world. One of the ways this is accomplished is by abstaining from the sinful desires that war against the soul. There is some very soul stirring, thought provoking teaching in this podcast. You don’t want to miss this one for sure.

Today’s Study will be on First Peter 2:9-10. There are a few different topics that we will dig into such as what it means to be chosen and that all true followers of Jesus are part of a royal priesthood and a holy nation. Though these topics are encouraging, my favorite is that we belong to Jesus. This lesson has some very challenging ideas so get yourself ready to learn and grow in Jesus.

The Radical Jesus Part 42

For the last 41 weeks we have been studying The Radical Jesus. We learned that Jesus is absolutely radical and that all those who would be true followers of Jesus are called to be like Jesus–to be Christlike. The simple conclusion to the fact that Jesus is radical is that His followers should be radical like Jesus. Today we conclude this study by bringing some practical application from what we have learned. Next week we will begin a new teaching series.

The Radical Jesus Part 28

Leave a Comment / Podcast, The Radical Jesus /

We have been doing an in depth investigation into the Radical Jesus for over seven months and this will be our last week studying the section on radical faith. One of the primary points of today’s lesson is to help us understand the necessity of returning to the roots of our faith that was seen in the primitive church of the first century. God is a miracle working God and He is waiting for people to rise up to the great need of the hour which is for the saints to operate through great faith. The need is great so the remedy must be greater. A tame Christianity will not capture the heart and mind of the world. We need a signs and wonders, New Testament faith. Then the world will take note and learn that there is a God and that His name is Jesus.

In our second week in our study on radical faith we will begin by examining the great faith of the Roman Centurion. In this account there are some powerful truths about faith and how it works. We will then look at the great need in our day for the people of God to arise to the desperate need of the hour to live out lives of great faith. Whenever the church lives by great faith the world takes notice. God is a miracle working God that still does miracles today. Will we be the people He can do miracles through? Will we live out the radical nature of true faith or will we let Jesus pass us by?
