The Church of Jesus Christ is made up of many diverse people. People of every color, nationality and personality. The diversity of the body of Christ is amazing and it is only the Lord Jesus who can build such a dynamic group. The purpose of the church is clear in the Scripture but that does not stop many Christians from having a personal opinion as to its design and reason for existence. These diverse opinions as to the purpose of the Church is probably a result from a confusion of attitude with action. This Sunday we will be reminded of our true purpose as we continue our study in 1 Peter. While it may seem simple on the surface, there is so much work to allow the Holy Spirit to function according to His plan for His people.
We are so thankful for what the Lord has done at TCT over the last year!! This Sunday we will be sharing how the Lord has used us to further His ministry and we will be looking forward to upcoming opportunities to join Him in His work. #TCToneyear
Beautiful pictures of the the Bain sisters baptism at Honeymoon Island this evening!
How often do you consider the cost of your salvation? We know Jesus paid for our sins with His blood but the price paid to redeem us is sometimes not understood fully and because we don't understand it we miss its enormous significance! Knowing the cost of our salvation only brings us into a deeper understanding of God's love for us. This Sunday, we will take a closer look at our redemption and learn its depths as Peter encourages us to fully grasp the amazing grace of God.
Love one another ♥️🤝♥️
For those believers who are growing in the grace and knowledge of Christ, the work of Jesus on the cross and His resurrection becomes a source of power for the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit through sanctification. The deeper a follower understand this truth, the more they become aware of just how great God truly is. Consequently, believers desire to please God and doing things for God helps to scratch our religious itch. However, when we grow deeper spiritually through our understanding of God's Word, we realize that our spiritual transformation that manifests itself in active obedience is truly the best way to show God how much we appreciate all He has done for us through Jesus. This Sunday at TCT, we will lean what Peter teaches us about how an authentic believer truly shows appreciation for their new life in Christ.
It is a fact that we are enamored by what we see, taste, touch, smell and especially feel. Our culture is continually looking for the next "experience." One of the great truths that all believers have in common is our great salvation. As I think on what the Lord accomplished for us and what He has for us in the future is literally too difficult to put into words and "awesome" seems to fall short of an adequate description. This Sunday, we continue with our study in 1 Peter and we are reminded of just how great our salvation truly is. This truth is one that you don't want to miss because there is an abundance of encouragement and true satisfaction in knowing Christ.
