So great a salvation.
We have been given a great salvation. However, it can be neglected. Which means what to the believer? Let’s search this out. “Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.

Push-Through
“Push-Through” is a saying that I grew up hearing. It was immensely valuable and still is today. To me, it carries encouragement and challenge. Let me ask you a question. How do you approach God?

Preaching in the New Testament
John the Baptist was the last Old Testament preacher (Luke 16:16), and Jesus became the first New Testament preacher. In fact, for preaching, John Stott (1982) wrote, “The only place to begin is with Jesus himself” (p. 16).
