Today we get down to the last challenge – the last four verses of Chapter 3 – the last few words that Peter would ever pen – these are his FINAL WORDS of his FINAL WORDS – and if ever words were “ABOVE ALL ELSE” words – these are them!!!

Many of us have – and many of us have dealt with all kinds of people in our sphere of influence who just marvel (and sometimes not in a good way!) at our decision to believe and follow a man who lived 2000 years ago.

You and I definitely live in a world and culture that is filled with things that are truthful and things that are not truthful. We have to be discerning and be able to tell the difference. Sadly speaking, even within the Church there are things said that might not be congruent with God’s truth. So even within the Church we need to be very discerning and have our spiritual antennas up at all times. This message will help us all discern the difference between truth and error. Using categories that come right from 2 Peter 2, we will explore how to be discerning followers of Jesus who know the difference between truth and untruth.

What happens when LIMITED human beings meet and, through faith, interact with a LIMITLESS God is that spiritual and relational sparks fly – and God’s power, love, righteousness, grace and truth begin to FLOW freely in and through us!

Who or What Do You Rely on Most?

It’s very easy as a 21st century American to take a lot of stock in our own righteousness. We volunteer lots of hours. We give loads of money. We are relatively friendly to strangers we meet. We raise well adjusted families. We’re even pretty moral when we want to be. Compared to many others in this world, we’re “righteous” and we know it. And though obviously this is a good thing, it can also be a bad thing. It can lead to a more “holier than thou” attitude. It can cause us to be blind to our own deficiencies and inadequacies. And it can also tempt us to rely more on ourselves and our righteousness than on God and His righteousness in the sending of Jesus Christ! This message will explore what Peter and the Bible mean by the “righteousness of God” – and why the righteousness of Jesus Christ is truly the only thing that can bring us to God and keep us there.
