[07/16/2023 PM] - "God's Design Includes Means of Grace" - 2 Peter 3.17-18

At 5:00 pm we will reconvene for corporate worship, part 2 and take up a wonderful and enriching text at 2 Peter 3.17, 18 with help from Canons of Dort 3/4.17. This is the final Article of the 3/4 head of doctrine and we will take a short break from the Canons before beginning the final "Head of Doctrine" in a few weeks. 2 Peter 3.17, 18 reveals to us the dangers of lawlessness and the direction by God to grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ. This is so important! Please make a plan to be there for the evening service.
