Get Your Act Together On Purpose

August 4, 2024 • Ray Jones • 2 Corinthians 13:5–10

Bro. Ray is back from his July sabbatical and concludes his series "On Purpose." In this message, we're reminded of God's purpose for our lives and the importance of living it out faithfully. The central theme revolves around 2 Corinthians 13, where Paul admonishes the Corinthians to examine themselves and get their spiritual act together. We're challenged to consider why God may intervene in our lives, preserving us for His greater purpose. The message draws parallels between the Corinthians' struggles and our modern cultural challenges, urging us to value our souls above all else. We're encouraged to guard against habitual sin, false accusations, and denial of truth - all of which can derail our spiritual journey. Through personal examination, prayerful expectations, and purposeful exhortation, we can align ourselves with God's will and hear those coveted words: 'Well done, good and faithful servant.'
