Hell is a place of great fear, torment, and dread- a place where you do not want to be. Are we carefully looking at our lives to see if we are growing in the faith? Pastor Tony Arnold teaches us in Luke 16:19-31 the story of the rich man and Lazarus.
Do we set limits on our brothers and sisters in Christ when it comes to forgiveness? God does not have limits when it comes to forgiving us and Christ is our example in how we relate to others. Pastor Leon Green teaches us in Matthew 18:21-35 the importance of forgiveness to our faith, and reminds us that we are to forgive because Christ forgives us.

The salvation that we have in Christ Jesus is something no one can take away, and is the foundation in our relationships. Are we loving others in order to meet our own needs? How are we to serve one another without fear? Dr. Willem Van Gemeren instructs us in 1 Peter 3:1-17 why we need to seek holiness and remember that we are co-heirs with Christ.
Are you a true worshipper? God’s sovereignty can be at times difficult to deal with. As members of the community of faith, we are to submit to His word and His ways. Pastor Tony Arnold teaches us in Jeremiah 18:1-8 how the Father molds and shapes us in who He wants us to be, and we can never run away from the One who created us.
Are there times in life when you wonder why life seems unfair? These are the times when we need to be reminded that God is sovereign over all and he uses all things for good and for His glory. The Lord does what He pleases. Dr. Steve Musser shares valuable wisdom in light of Matthew 20:1-16 and 20-28, encouraging the community of faith to continue to love God in times when it doesn’t seem to pay.
