Those were the words spoken by Christ to Peter the evening before Christ was taken to be crucified. Peter thought he would die for Christ; Christ knew Peter would deny Him. Why is Satan able to tempt and then snare you?

It’s part of the definition of love; it’s a fruit of God’s Spirit. God tells us, in His opinion, it’s costly, very precious, and a great price! Moses had it. Christ had it. Each of us should have it! Do you and I have “mildness of disposition” and “gentleness of spirit?”

Despite what we see in this world, God has called Christians to be peaceful. There is a demonic wisdom of this world that keeps us from being peaceful. But there is a wisdom and understanding from God showing what we must do and what we must not do to be peaceful.

Better yet, who did Abraham know? Satan wants us to doubt the veracity of God’s Word. There are thousands of insignificant copyist errors, plus purposeful errors. But Abraham received stories from Shem, who knew Methuselah, who knew Adam, and God even spoke to Abraham, who rejoiced to know about Christ our Savior.

The negotiator for Hamas exclaimed that Gaza belongs to the Palestinians. Can we prove that God gave the “land of Canaan” to the Israelites? Do we know the boundaries of the 7 nations whose inhabitants were to be destroyed from this land? Did God allow the United States to take land from existing nations?

When we have the blessing of little children, we are reminded that God tells us we must be like little children to enter the kingdom of God. King Saul was “little in his own eyes” before he became king; but he changed and esteemed himself to be “great in his own eyes.” What about you and me?

New Jerusalem

Revelation 21 describes the new Jerusalem coming down from heaven. Although this magnificent, gigantic city could be literal, the city definitely is symbolic of immortal, eternal spirit beings who have inherited the kingdom of God. Listen to how this can be proven.

God's Seasons vs Our Timing

“Consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation” (2 Peter 3:15). Our timing for God’s intervention is often impatient timing. God has a season, the perfect period when He intervenes in the world, but also in our lives. We must always wait for His timing in our lives.

A World Desensitized to Sin

In a world with so much evil, it could be easy to become desensitized. We can learn from the example of Lot and his wife just how detrimental that could be. We must be willing to forsake all and be committed to the future God has planned for us.

God sent his Son, Jesus Christ, to this earth for one major specific reason. We positively know that reason because the Bible uses the words "sent" and "sending." Are you sure that you know why God sent Jesus Christ?

Determination

The primary help for us to be more determined as Christians comes from God and His Spirit. However, since we are physical beings, we can also experience some physical aspects of life that give us a spiritual boost. With conditions in the world and the events we know are coming in the future, we need much determination.

Most of the nominal Christian churches believe the wicked will suffer agonizing torment in hell fire forever! You know otherwise. But can you answer the gainsayer proving even hard-to-be understood verses confirm a second death for practicing sinners?

What Do We Do When They Don't

Castle Rock, Colorado
Given by Greg Sargent
August 16, 2025

We show longsuffering, self-control and tolerance. Why? You know God is love and that God pours out His love to us by His Spirit. And we know the fruit of love, for example joy, peace, kindness etc. But how do we respond to others, even fellow Christians, who are not demonstrating the fruit of the Spirit. If we really love...
