    April 27 | Be Ready for Jesus - Jude & AD 70
    2025/04/27
    DATE: April 27, 2025 THEME: Be Ready for Jesus SCRIPTURE: Jude & AD 70 Jude, the half-brother of Jesus, wrote a letter to the churches encouraging them to stay focused and ready for Jesus by making sure the pure gospel was being shared and taught, but to reject false teachers. Then around that time, AD70, comes the major turning point of the 1st century - second only to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ - the destruction of Israel. This fulfilled Jesus' prophetic words about the coming of the terrible day of the Lord because of their hard-heartedness. This also affirms and confirms Jesus's words to for us today; Be Ready for Jesus.

    April 13 | Be Faithful to the End
    2025/04/13
    DATE: April 13, 2025 THEME: Be Faithful to the End SCIRPTURE: 2 Peter & 2 Timothy Paul & Peter write their last letters, both of them knowing their time on earth is coming to a close. They desire to instill great strength and courage into the church and the leadership in order to remain faithful to Jesus Christ and stand firm against false teachers and false teaching. These are very loving and pastoral letters written to pour out their love and affection to their readers from a place of suffering, but great hope while they are in prison. Then, both Paul and Peter are executed by the Romans; Paul by beheading (since he’s a Roman citizen, and cannot be tortured of crucified) and Peter by being crucified upside (since he did not believe himself to be worthy to suffer in the same way his Lord and Savior). And so, two of the pillars of the early church were killed, passing the baton of their faith to the next generation of believers they had taught in the faith.

John is known as the "love one another" Apostle. He internalized, embodied, and imparted Jesus's command to love one another in everything he said, did, and taught.
