It must be understood that trusting one’s obedience as a way of retaining salvation is far from being only a Jewish problem. It is still a problem today for Christians who struggle with legalism. So, Paul is also working to defend the cross. Faith + works nullify the cross, Galatians 3.21.

Week 5: Seizing the Moment
September 29, 2024 • Jason Schofield , Eric Renegar
The Christian has always burst forth, sharing the good news (Gospel) with anyone they had the opportunity. To contain the soul-saving message of salvation through Jesus would be nothing short of selfishness, uncaring, and discompassionate. Imagine knowing a medical scientist held the cure for diabetes and refused to share it. How would you feel about this person? What measures would people take to force this scientist to share his formula to relieve human suffering? In like manner, a Christian could never hold back from revealing God’s plan when an opportunity is presented.
Perfect Love
September 29, 2024 • Matthew Allen • 1 John 4:7–12
From the beginning, we were created in an exalted fashion… to be like God. This means we have been created for relationships. Just as the Trinity by nature exists in fellowship and relationship … so we have been created with the capacity for relationship. We can love others and love God. And within that is fellowship, care, sharing thoughts, attitudes, and experiences that make love the richest of all human experiences. In John 4:7-21 John presents us with the theme of perfect love.

September 22, 2024 • Matthew Allen, Justin Spargo, John Key • John 3:16–18
The blood of Christ brings complete satisfaction for sin to God. Since this is true, we must understand how we benefit from that shed blood. What must we do to have the blood applied to our souls to cover our sins?
September 25, 2024 • Matthew Allen, Ben Baker • 1 John 2:12–27
In this lesson, we will explore 1 John 2:12-27, where the apostle John provides valuable insights into the Christian Walk. He addresses believers at different stages of spiritual maturity, reminding us of the growth that comes through our relationship with God. John then warns us about the dangers of loving the world and being led astray by false teachings, urging us to remain faithful to the truth passed down from the apostles. As we delve into this passage, we will learn how to stay anchored in our faith, reject the world's temptations, and experience a deeper fellowship with God. Let's open our hearts and minds to John's lessons to live authentically as followers of Christ in a world that often opposes Him.

Because of His Great Love
September 15, 2024 • Matthew Allen • Ephesians 2:4–10
During September, we have been looking at God’s Great Love. Today, we’ll be in Ephesians 2:4-10 - and primarily verses 4-7. In Ephesians 2:1-10, Paul details our salvation and how God made it happen. He tells us how God took the initiative to save us, why He saved us, and the result of the salvation He provides. Your salvation is all in and through Jesus. There is no such thing as salvation without Christ in the middle of it.
September 18, 2024 • Matthew Allen, Eric Renegar • 1 John 2:1–11
In this lesson, we will explore what it truly means to live in fellowship with God and our fellow believers. Building on the foundation laid in the previous lesson, the focus shifts from acknowledging our sins to forsaking them as part of our daily walk in the light of Christ. John emphasizes the vital role Jesus plays as our advocate, continually interceding on our behalf, ensuring that we remain in the right standing with God.

What Shall Separate Us from His Love?
September 8, 2024 • Matthew Allen • Romans 8:35–39
Romans 8:35-39 contains the promise of God’s everlasting love. This is the climax of Paul’s greatest writing — and one of the most important doctrinal sections in Scripture — salvation is by grace through faith and not by human works. And the gist of it all is that through salvation, God has brought you into a relationship with Him. He is so powerful and loving that He will do everything possible to protect, sustain, and provide for that relationship. This allows us to stand in our salvation with great confidence.
