Peter provides us with instructions regarding the Christian life, centered on our calling to the holy.
The prophets of the Old Testament spoke the oracles of God to the people of God. Those prophets were proclaiming a veiled gospel, always pointing to the ministry that Jesus would perform on our behalf. Peter reveals that the prophets were serving us as they wrote of the sufferings and subsequent glories of Jesus.
Paul exhorts the Colossian believers to walk in Christ in the same way that they received Him in order to avoid falling into believing doctrinal errors.
Jesus Christ is the son of God and God sent his son to not condemn us but to saves sinners from their sin by dying on the cross and rising from the dead defeating death forever and bridging the gap between us and God.

How is the body of Christ through ministry suppose to function as one in Christ.
Today, we answer five important questions. What does it mean that we are elect exiles? What does it mean that the Father foreknew us? What does it mean that the Spirit sanctified us? What does it mean that the Son sprinkles us? What does it mean for grace and peace to be multiplied to us?
A biographical sketch of the apostle Peter, the author of 1 Peter. We want to understand the nature of his relationship to Christ and the believers in exile.
We fight against fixation on ourselves by staying fixated on the finish line, fixated on the faithful, and fixated on fate.
Learn about the Holy Spirit's role in the Trinity, the Old Testament, Salvation, and Sanctification
How does the son, Jesus Christ, function in the Trinity in relation to the Father, The Spirit, Creation, our Salvation and lastly the Church.
The first of three sermons on the Trinity. God the Father's distinct role within the Godhead, over human history, and in the plan of salvation.
God reconciled us through the death of Jesus and presents us as holy before Him
God is a mighty fortress for his people, and our confidence in the Lord should be strong whether we are facing temporary trials or the final judgment of the world.
“Union with Christ” is a collective phrase that is meant to encompass the astonishing number of terms, expressions, and images in the New Testament that refer to the oneness of the believer with Christ.
How Christian believers can be faithful in the midst of persecution
This is an expose on pragmatism and how frequently we as Christians use it in direct opposition to trusting God. Christian's need to distinguish Biblical Worldview from pragmatism and then place trust in God rather than self.
Pastor Caleb provides seven resolutions for LBC for the year 2025. More importantly, he shares how God works in us to cause spiritual growth
Paul declares the deity of Christ by highlighting His supremacy in Creation and Redemption. He is preeminent and worthy of our worship!
A short biography of the city of David - Bethlehem
In the trials of life, God calls His people to find comfort by trusting His promises
The Resurrection of Jesus is harshly attacked by critics. But, the historical resurrection is a central truth of the gospel. In this sermon we find seven reasons why the resurrection is vital for our Christian faith.
Saul died as he lived, an unrepentant fool. He leaves us looking forward for the true and better King who was to come. Saul is Dead, Jesus is alive. Long live the King.
How did David respond to tragic circumstances? Unlike Saul a few chapters ago, David strengthens himself in the Lord, and the Lord delivered David from his enemies.
Paul prays for the Colossians to be filled with the knowledge of God so that they can live lives worthy of the Gospel they have received. This knowledge centers on the powerful redemptive work of God through his beloved Son. This pray contains "ingredients" for a Christian to be mature and grow in their faith.
If you are feeling distant from the Lord by not being saved, being in sin or just trying to survive hard times, you must know that Lord is God and put your faith in him, repent of your sins and put your hope in God and Praise Him, no matter what your circumstances.
David and his men left Israel to live under the auspices of the Philistines. During that time, David is operating as a double agent; fighting against the enemies of God while pretending to fight the people of God. But it is at this point that David is nearly forced to actually fight against the Lord's people. David's only escape is through the kind providence of a merciful God.
When should you answer a fool? When should you not respond?
All true, redeemed, blood-bought Christians should have a co-laboring, cooperating spirit, working together to advance God's kingdom.
Ordination service for Dillon McKeon, Marco Rosero & Jonathan Rodriguez on October 13 2024 at Levittown Baptist Church
Don't use God's providence as an excuse to sin. The true and better king, Christ, wins by humble mercy, love and personal sacrifice. Like Christ, we are called to overcome evil with good.
Paul receives an encouraging report on the church in Colosse, and expresses thanksgiving for their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, their love for all the saints, and their hope and assurance of eternal life in heaven. We can learn much from how this church worshiped God and loved Christ's bride, the church.
When David was fearful, doubting, and discouraged, Jonathan "strengthened his hand in God." God has given us a great blessing by allowing us to be part of a body that is designed to encourage and edify one another in times of need.
What does judgment look like? It can look like God removing His hand of restraint from someone's life, allowing them to do exactly what they want to do. As God removes His hand of restraint from Saul, he allows his paranoia and fear rule over him, leading him to commit genocide against the house of the Lord.
David tries to protect himself from Saul in ways that does not depend on God, but in his own cleverness. However, the consequences of David's sinful lack of trust in the Lord lead to the death of many.

JESUS' MISSION WAS TO MAKE DISCIPLES BY SACRIFICIALLY SUBSTITUTING HIMSELF ON THE CROSS TO BECOME THEIR ALL-SUFFICIENT, ALL-SATISFYING, TREASURE
Biblical Christianity Description: Legalism, Moralism and Christianism are three of the most deceptive "isms" in the Church today. The Scriptures identify, and condemn their deception in the light of authentic Biblical Christianity.
Psalm 14:1 tells us "The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God."" Dont' be a "practical athiest" and live as if Gode does not exist. Unsaved sinner: run to Jesus turn away from your sinful life and embrace the salvation that comes only from Him. Christian: Look at Christ, Live for Him, live more like Christ.
The surest defense we have against temptation is the power of God's word.
