Preaching the Gospel in Faithful Fellowship
Sermons on Church (Page 2)
In Acts 2:41-47 we read the great account of the early church coming together and many being saved through the unity and steadfastness that was among the believers at the time. When we think about our own lives here in America, we have so much freedom and safety that the persecution they faced is often…
As churches that follow Christ, we must heed the warnings of Scripture. 1 Thessalonians 5 contains many reminders of the need for us to be vigilant and wary as the last days draw ever nearer, while we watch for the return of Christ.
When Paul wrote the the church of Thessalonica in 1 Thessalonians 1:1-2:13, he lauded them for the example they were. As we think about our church, are we being an example to those around us? Are we a faithful church that strives to do the work of Christ?

Without each one of us doing our part, the local church can not succeed, the Christian cannot succeed,…
God has called on local Bible believing believers to partner together for a reason – because there’s strength when we come together and partner! In Ecclesiastes 4:91-12 we’re given examples of this strength and the need for Christians to be bound together in Christ. How’s your partnership with Christ and other believers today?
