It is impossible to become physically fit by merely reading a book about exercise or listening to excellent advice from a fitness expert; rather, it is imperative that we apply the knowledge gained and actually DO the necessary work of dieting and exercising. Similarly, we cannot become spiritually fit by simply reading the Bible or sitting under excellent preaching of the Word; rather, we must earnestly apply what we are learning to our lives and DO what Scripture calls us to do. In James 1:18-21, we learn how to live a transformed life that builds faith and avoids spiritual atrophy ...

Men love darkness rather than light; we need the Holy Spirit to regenerate us and reveal to us the truth of God’s word. Only the Spirit can reveal the depth of our sin and empower us to confess our sin. Only the Spirit can reveal Jesus as the remedy for our sin, and only the spirit can impart desires and longings for us to live in righteousness.

Man’s moral dilemma did not take God by surprise. Before time began Jesus made a covenant with His Father to save His people from their sins. What Jesus did in life and in death actually accomplished something. Christ was a substitute and bore the wrath of God in place of sinners. The punishment that we deserved was put upon Christ. We can now be free from the guilt of sin if we believe in this amazing work.

The Apostle Paul encourages us to pursue knowledge that will transcend us into a life worthy of Christ. Our incentive to live knowingly should not be aligned with how it makes us feel but instead, motivated by our desire to bring glory to God. In this message, Alistair Begg outlines four marks of a life that is pleasing to Jesus – fruitful, knowledgeable, powerful and thankful.

Christians are urged to live out the Gospel by our actions and words. So how do we communicate effectively with those who do not know Christ? Teaching on acting wisely and being opportunistic with those outside the faith, Alistair provides insight to learning to answer questions appropriately, being gracious without being cliché and on how love must cross racial and cultural boundaries.

Do you believe the Christian Bible is the Word of God? Some debate the Bible as having no authority and being unreliable. Others debate parts of the Bible are reliable but other parts are not. Pastor Begg addresses these view points and provides thought provoking teaching on why the Bible is truthful in all parts, is the sole authority, and God inspired. Whichever side of the Bible battle debate you reside, listen today and provide your own personal reflection on the authority of Scripture.
