2 Peter 3:16-18 The Danger of False Teaching
Warnings against false prophets and false teachers constitute a major theme throughout the entire bible. Here, Peter urges patience with the plan of God, and caution against the destructive nature of false teachings.
Biblical Foundations of The United States of America
Do you wonder how far The United States has fallen from our foundation? Today we will look at the Biblical Foundation of the Declaration, the US Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. It is shocking how far removed we are from these pillars.
2 Peter 3:14-16 Without Spot or Blemish
In his closing exhortation, Peter brings us full circle back to the way of moral excellence he introduced in chapter one. He also warns against false teachers yet another time.
Galatians 5:7-15 Marks of a False Teacher
Paul sees 6 marks of a false teacher in this section. I have drawn heavily from the InterVarsity New Testament Commentary for the outline of this sermon. Paul deals pretty harshly with false teachers, but many today are more willing to give them a pass. Maybe we shouldn’t.
2 Peter 3:10-13 “… Hastening the Coming of the Day of God”

Paul uses an allegory to explain the fallacy of reverting back to the observation of the Law after having put faith in Jesus as the Messiah of Israel. This is a good lesson for all to learn.
Galatians 4:12-20 I Am Perplexed By You

2 Peter 3:1-7 Scoffers Will Scoff
Peter counters those who doubt the judgment of God against a sinful society. He takes us back to the food of Noah’s time for an example. Be certain, God will not be mocked.
Galatians 4:8-11 To Be Known By God
What is the difference between “knowing God”, and being “known by God”? They is the question we discuss in this sermon.
