scripture: 2 peter 3:17-3:18

Peter uses his teaching about false teachers and the second coming as a springboard for further instructions on how to live properly. So his goal remains consistent – tell Christians how to live properly for the glory of Jesus Christ. "Take care" - Christians need to be intentionally watchful about what and who they listen to, because it can have serious effects in their lives. We’ve been told to be diligent to be found at peace, but peace and stability can never come from twisting the Scriptures. If you aren’t growing in the grace & knowledge of Jesus Christ, you’ll be unstable. to persevere as a Christian, we must guard ourselves from spiritual error and grow in the grace and knowledge of Him. As often as you consider His patience and grace toward you, give Him glory.

How should we use the Bible in our daily lives? By looking at what Scripture says about its own purpose and usefulness we will be able to understand how we are to grow in our faith. The Bible helps us understand who God is, who we were created to be, and what to be watchful of that would lead us astray. Visit us online at: http://www.RenewalChurch.net
