Asking for a King
22 October 2023
Would you trade in a brand new Ferrari for a beat up old Corolla? No way! But sometimes, we don’t realise how good we’ve got it and we trade what is good for something worse. But the ultimate tragedy is that we all do this with God. This week we hear from 1 Samuel 8 how rejecting God’s rule always leads to slavery, suffering and loss, but coming under the good rule of God’s king means life.

To The End

How closely would you listen to someone’s last words? This week we hear Paul’s last words from 2 Timothy 3:10-4:22 and we are encouraged to endure to the end, holding fast to God’s word and teaching it to others, because we can have confidence in God’s presence, strengthening and promise.

Passage: 2 Timothy 3:10-4:22

Flee and Pursue

Are you in spiritual danger? Do you need to run? This week we hear Paul sound the alarm in 2 Timothy 2:14-3:9 that we need to get out of danger by fleeing false teaching and trivial arguments and pursuing righteousness, faith, love and peace.

Passage: 2 Timothy 2:14-3:9

A Solider of Christ Jesus

Living for God can mean being called to endure difficult things. We can find the strength for these things in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. This week we see from 2 Timothy 2 the call to be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus, and be willing to endure everything for the sake of the gospel.
