Refined by Fire, Week 6: 2 Things To Be Sure Of

Refined by Fire is our series in the books of 1 & 2 Peter! These powerful letters were written to early Christians facing persecution to remind them of the hope they have in Jesus and to encourage them to stand firm. Today, Pastor Bartley Sawatsky starts the second half of our series, teaching on "2 Things To Be Sure Of" from 2 Peter 1:1-21. 2 Peter 1:1-21 emphasizes two things that believers can be sure of. Firstly, believers can be sure of their salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, who has given them everything they need for a godly life. Secondly, believers can be sure of the reliability and truth of the scriptures, which are inspired by God and provide guidance and direction for believers. Peter urges believers to continually grow in their faith and knowledge of Jesus Christ, through practicing virtues such as goodness, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness, brotherly kindness, and love. By doing so, believers can be assured of their calling and election as children of God, and will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Join us in person every Sunday at 4:00 pm at 7755 Tenth Line North, Mississauga, ON for a time of worship and teaching.
