Heaven Is Surreal
We know there’s a heaven, the Bible says so! But what is it going to be like? As we go through Revelation 21 we see some descriptions that help paint the picture for us. But at best, all we can determine is it’s going to be so much better than we can ever imagine!

The Beginning of the End
John again sees a great sign in heaven in this chapter. It’s the unfolding of God’s final wave of judgment.

His kingdom is coming and it’s the beginning of the end for that which is opposed to God.

Persevering & Preaching
Jeremiah asks the age old question, ‘Why does the way of the wicked prosper?’ God’s response is not what Jeremiah was hoping for I’m sure. But God’s concern was more for Jeremiah. All that Jeremiah was dealing with was meant to prepare him for greater challenges and build perseverance. It would enable him to continue preaching the word in all circumstances.

1 John 2:1-11 – Walking In Jesus and Like Jesus
John lays out for us some wonderful news! We don’t have to sin, but if we do, we have an Advocate – Jesus. And He is with the Father standing on our behalf. He has cleansed us from our sin and now calls us into a life of fellowship with Him. And John lays out some tests for the believer to know that we know Him.

Hold Fast: The Jerusalem Council
A crucial moment came for the early church when certain men came up to Antioch to challenge the Gentile believers and promote the idea that these Gentiles needed to convert to Judaism to be saved. It would undue everything that Jesus has already done. So the leaders of the church met in Jerusalem to decide what should be done.
Praise the Lord that they held fast to grace!
