On this podcast, we discuss receiving rewards from the Lord.

Brothers and Sisters in Jesus Christ: God rightly condemned Jews and Gentiles for their sins and then gave over to their sins. God gave them over to their sins so they could suffer…the beginning of their hell…or so they could repent! Now God is always right in what he does! Hear about this today. Our headings are: God is Fair God is Fair to the Faithful God is Fair to the Faithless Our goals are: That you will not question God's fairness in giving over the wicked to sin, but will work to rescue those who are under God's just condemnation and in a dangerous place!

Guest preacher and missionary to the Czech Republic, Adam Cook, looks at the introductory verses of the epistle of 1 Peter. In these few verses, Peter talks about the entire Christian life - from the moment of salvation to eternity future. But the hope that we have in that time does not exempt us from trials and pain. How do we face those times? What is the source of our hope and where is it leading us? As we walk through this life, we are strangers in a strange land, and these verses help us know how to live as representatives of God.

What does it mean that Christ took our sin on the cross and gave us His righteousness?

[New Audio Expositional Sermon] Moses - His Faith and Choices [Exposition of Hebrews 11:23-28] What you believe has an impact on the choices you make in life. And the choices we make in life have consequences. In this expositional sermon, we will see how Moses' faith led him to make choices in life which had great rewards. We too are called to make choices, not by focusing on immediate worldly rewards, but by fixing our eyes on future rewards given by God. May we emulate Moses' faith and experience God's astonishing work in our lives.

As we close this series on the Christian (Incremental) Graces we are implored not to be idle or unfruitful or else we are blind, unable to see or even recognize these graces--a dangerous place to be. We may still be saved, but if we forget our sins and what the Lord has done for us. Rather we are encouraged to give diligence (haste) to make our calling and election sure. That is, having confidence in our faith and His sacrifice. Then one day we will enter into heaven with a great reward as all these graces are preformed (as a dance) perfectly with no sin, praise the Lord!

Do you think you are entitled to more than others? Are you upset when others are welcomed into the body of Christ, yet don't have the disciplined life that you have? Are you condescending and mean to others who have shown up late to the things of God having lived a life of sinful pleasures up until coming to Him? You forget dear friend, that, were it not for the grace of God alone, you would have nothing either.

We will have to face judgment.

After a saving faith in Christ we are encouraged to supplement the faith with Virtue, Knowledge, Temperance (Self-Control), Patience (Endurance), Godliness (Piety), Brotherly Kindness and Charity (Love). These Graces are discussed today with particular application to our daily lives.

Christians should expect to suffer like all people in the world, but they must know that their suffering is for their good because God uses suffering to make them more like Jesus. Whether it is general suffering from trials or suffering because of persecution, God is using the suffering to prepare each believer an eternal weight of glory.

In our study, we see that the number of the Apostles was limited to twelve and the membership was exclusive with signs to establish each Apostle. We are to test and reject all false professions of those claiming to be apostles. And we should recognize that they were rewarded greatly in glory but suffered great persecution in their role as apostles. Also Reference: 1 Corinthians 1:22, 2 Corinthians 11:13-14, Revelation 2:1-2, Romans 16:7, Philippians 3:4-14 https://bbfohio.com
