A Mother's Counsel, Part 3

May 4, 2018

The Bible tells us that possessing convictions is absolutely essential to being a believer. While each Christian is called to believe the truths of the Bible, it is essential for the Christian leader to walk in the full strength of these truthful convictions to be set apart. That’s where we find ourselves today in Sound Doctrine. Pastor Jeff Johnson reminds us of the importance of convictions in what God has to do…and not to do. With all that God has done for us in Christ, it’s those who take up the mantle of spiritual leadership who have cultivated convictions as to how to best serve Him.  It’s the final study of A Mother’s Counsel discovered in Proverbs 31

In the book of Daniel, King Belshazzar saw the writing on the wall. God said that he had been weighed on the scale and he was coming up short; he was a lightweight, no substance. In our culture, there are skeptics who make the same claims when it comes to God’s Word. But they don’t realize that it is pure and has stood the test of time. Today on Sound Doctrine Pastor Jeff Johnson warns us that human speculation always comes up short in comparison to divine revelation. God’s Word can always and ultimately be trusted. So let’s allow God’s Spirit to speak to us through His word today in our message titled, “Knowledge of the Holy” in Proverbs 30 for today’s encouragement in Sound Doctrine.
