The Portage church of Christ is a group of pre-denominational Christians that are striving to serve the Lord together. Our goal is to please God, and we believe that the best way to do that is to follow the pattern that was established by the churches in the first century and revealed in the New Testament. We have no creed or doctrine except the Bible and we follow the Bible only. We strive for unity in the teaching of New Testament doctrine. Our congregation is not part of, or subject to, any larger man-made religious organization. We are a completely autonomous congregation. We are locally governed, just as the church in the first century was. How does one becomes a member of this church congregation? The exact same way as seen in the Biblical accounts. On the day of Pentecost following Jesus' resurrection, people who repented and were baptized were saved (Acts 2:38) and the saved were added to the church (Acts 2:47). These saved people were members of the body, or church (Colossians 1:18).

In this episode, Bruce reflects on 2 Timothy 4:6–8 and Paul's words as he nears the end of his life.Paul says, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” His life had been poured out for Christ, not measured by worldly success, but by faithfulness to the mission God had given him.Bruce invites us to examine our own lives and ask: am I doing what God is asking of me? Am I living aware of His presence? Am I remaining faithful?This devotional encourages us to practice the simple prayer: “Lord, You are here, and I am here with You.”Where is God calling you to keep the faith today?

SummaryIn this episode, Benjamin Lee explores the significance of the phrase 'trustworthy statement' used by Paul in the New Testament, emphasizing the importance of faithfulness in the Christian life. He delves into key biblical passages, especially 2 Timothy 2, to highlight how faithfulness, rooted in the resurrection of Jesus, should guide our walk with God.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the 'Trustworthy Statement' in Paul's Letters00:29 Where Paul Uses the Phrase 'Trustworthy Statement'01:25 The Significance of 2 Timothy 2:11-1302:22 The Theme of Faithfulness in 2 Timothy04:17 The Fruit of the Spirit: Faithfulness05:43 Paul's Relationship with Timothy: A Faithful Partnership07:38 Paul's Final Words: A Call to Faithfulness09:01 How to Remain Faithful in Difficult Times11:27 Examples of Faithfulness: Soldier, Athlete, Farmer16:38 The Rewards of Faithfulness: Reigning with Christ28:40 The Warning: Denying Christ and Its Consequences30:07 God's Faithfulness and Our Response32:07 Conclusion: Living a Life of FaithfulnessConnect with Me!

This is message 14 in Understanding the Love of God Job 23:1-12 The Christian life is not measured by the absence of trials but by a growing confidence in the God who never loses sight of His children. Even when His presence cannot be felt and His purposes cannot be understood, He knows every step, supplies strength for every burden, uses every trial to refine His people, and calls them to remain faithful to His Word. As believers learn to trust His heart instead of their circumstances, they discover that God is accomplishing a greater work through every difficulty than they could ever see on their own.

Gospel of Mark chapter 13 records Jesus' teaching about future events, often called the Olivet Discourse. He warns His disciples about deception, persecution, wars, and tribulations that will occur before His return. Jesus encourages believers not to be alarmed but to endure faithfully, knowing that the Gospel must be proclaimed to all nations. He emphasizes that no one knows the exact day or hour of His coming, calling His followers to live with spiritual alertness, readiness, and unwavering faith. This chapter reminds us to trust God's sovereignty, remain steadfast during trials, and always be prepared for Christ's return.

During Student Takeover Weekend, student Cole delivered an encouraging message about remaining faithful to God even when the process feels long, repetitive, or uncertain. Looking at the story of Joshua and the battle of Jericho, he reminded the church that obedience often requires trusting God before we can see the outcome. Cole challenged listeners to keep following God faithfully day after day, even when it feels like nothing is changing, knowing that God is still working behind the scenes. Through passages in Joshua and Hebrews 11, he showed that breakthrough often comes after seasons of perseverance, courage, and unwavering faith. Ultimately, the message encouraged the church to stay strong, trust God's timing, and believe that He is faithful to fulfill His promises.

2 Timothy 1:13-18

Teaching from Revelation 1: 9-20, by Dr Zach Kilpatrick.

Even when the people around you turn away from God, He sees and remembers those who stay faithful. God is patient and gives people time to repent, so His silence should never be mistaken for approval of evil. Because of His longsuffering, it can seem like the wicked prosper while the faithful are overlooked, but a day is coming when God will clearly separate those who truly serve Him from those who do not. Until then, outward success is not a reliable sign of God's blessing, and believers must remain faithful without letting the prosperity of sinful people cause them to lose sight of salvation. __________ Malachi 3:16–18 NLT, Exodus 34:6 NLT, 2 Peter 3:8–9 NIV, Matthew 13:28–30 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________    

On February 15th, Bob ingle preached from John 15:8-16:5 in the fifty-third message of our series through the Gospel of John.

What do you do when life squeezes you from every side; financially, emotionally, relationally and staying faithful feels costly? In Revelation 2:8–11, Jesus writes to the church in Smyrna, a church under intense pressure, public opposition, and real loss. They weren't comfortable, admired, or thriving by the world's standards; yet Jesus calls them rich. This message explores how pressure doesn't create faith, it reveals it; why faithfulness isn't about comfort but conviction; and how staying faithful now has eternal weight later. If you're feeling pressed, tempted to compromise, or wondering where God is in the middle of your struggle, this message is for you.
