Jesus doesn't have a backup plan when it comes to the salvation of people on earth. He came one time for all time, and then sent his disciples out into the world to make more disciples. Jesus commissioned us to be the "salt of the earth," and "the light of the world." If we're not abiding in Christ and doing what he commands us to do, then we're of no use to his mission or his church.

Firm Foundation
July 23, 2023 • Sean Gasperetti • Matthew 7:24–27
At every stage of life, we are provided with opportunities to either build on the shifting sands, or to build our life on a firm foundation. God is after our head and our heart; our understanding and our passion. It’s not enough just to comprehend the love of God. It’s not enough to hear the words, we must also do something with them.
Genuine Faith
July 16, 2023 • Sean Gasperetti • Matthew 7:13–14
While there are areas of our life in which we may be able to masquerade as something or someone we're not, we cannot fool God. You cannot fake your way into the kingdom. You can't flash your "Good person" badge to enter God's presence, or eternity. There is only one way we obtain salvation and that is through the person and work of Jesus Christ - crucified on our behalf.
