1 Peter 1:3-5
August 26, 2018
This section of Peter’s letter is a theologically rich doxology/praise of God. It is not only Peter’s praise to God for salvation, but a lesson to his audience and to us about salvation. The lesson is, no matter what rejection you face in this world, no matter how bad things become, don’t lose hope in Christ. For you as a child of God, always have reason to hope, because your hope is a living hope that is in the One who lived, died, and rose from the dead. The certainty of full and complete future salvation should create a beautiful reality of hope in which to live now, on a daily basis. Bask in these truths for a moment, and you will begin to sense that multiplication/increase of grace and peace that Peter spoke of: You, as an adopted child of God, by the plan of God, the sanctification of the Holy Spirit, and the shedding of the blood of Christ have a living Hope that is directly linked to the risen Lord Jesus Christ. Your future salvation and inheritance are as certain as His resurrection was in the past. Thank you for listening. The Church at Pecan Creek is located in Denton, Texas.

1 Peter 1:2
August 19, 2018
Think of the comfort that Peter’s audience of persecuted believers felt when they heard an Apostle of Jesus Christ tell them that no matter how the world viewed them, no matter the level of rejection, isolation, or persecution they experienced, they were elect exiles, who had an eternal home, by the eternal plan of God the Father, the sanctifying work of the Spirit, and the blood of Jesus, the Son of God! Salvation from beginning to end is a supernatural work of God. If you have been saved, the exact same truths of salvation can be said of you as well. You are elect exiles, you have an eternal home by the eternal plan of the God the Father, the sanctifying work of the Spirit, and the blood of Jesus, the Son of God! Take this truth into your mind and your life will be turned upside down as you bask in the reality of your identity, Whose you are, by the grace of God. Salvation is far more amazing than you can imagine, and the more you learn about it from the Word of God, the more beautiful it will become to you. Thank you for listening.

The Apostle Peter is opening up his address to some hurting people by reminding them of their Identity (Whose they are). Even though they are often rejected by the people that are around them, and live like exiles, they are the elect of God. When you embrace your identity in God and begin to realize Whose you are, your life will begin to reflect your identity more and more. Jesus, Paul, and Peter all meant for the doctrine of election to be a wonderful source of strength and comfort. And I hope that you can find that same strength and comfort in this doctrine today.Thank you for listening. The Church at Pecan Creek is located in Denton, Texas.

As we approach the book of 1 Peter, we realize that the words come with authority. They are from an Apostle. and most importantly they have been inspired by God. We submit to God by submitting to His word, which has been given to us through the prophets and the Apostles. Even today, as we have reviewed the life of Peter, may we learn from his teaching and his example.Thank you for listening. The Church at Pecan Creek is located in Denton, Texas.

What does God have to say about homosexuality? (Part 2)
The authority of God’s Word comes from God Himself. Scripture has been breathed out by God and given to us for our benefit, so that we may know how what truth is, that we may know what to believe, what not to believe, how to behave and how not to behave. The Bible is from God, therefore if we desire to know how God views an issue, like homosexuality, then we should look to His Word for the answer.
If we, as Christians, approve of homosexuality, then we are:
- Misrepresenting God like the false prophets.
- Undermining the authority of the Word of God.
- Relabeling unrighteous behavior, righteous behavior.
- Closing the kingdom of heaven to homosexuals by leaving them in their sin.
- Acting without love by withholding the truth about repentance and salvation.

What does God have to say about homosexuality? (Part 1)
More and more we are having to face the issue of homosexuality and we, as Christians, the people that are known to represent God, need to make sure that what we believe regarding the issue of homosexuality rightly lines up with God’s Word, and we need to be better equipped to teach Biblical truth to others. Many Christians are unsure how they are supposed to think about this issue personally, and very confused when it comes to speaking to a homosexual in a loving, caring, and Biblically truthful manner. Everyone has an opinion on homosexuality, but it is our purpose today to put aside emotions, experiences, cultural relativism, and to see what God has to say about homosexuality.

Jul 8, 2018Acts SummaryBy: Trey TalleySeries: Acts
Acts Summary
Luke records that what began thirty years earlier in Acts chapter 1 with 120 Jewish believers quickly growing into the thousands with Jews, then Samaritans, then Gentiles believing. The gospel was being spread all over the world. The gospel had arrived in Rome, which was the epicenter of the known world for power, trade, commerce, and idolatry, but now would become mission central for Paul. Even though he was still in chains, he was able to teach people about “the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness and without hindrance” (v.31).
What are we to take from the book of Acts? The command to witness, the content of our witness, and the commonality of all believers to witness.
