Resolutions

This past Sunday Pastor Steve preached a message entitled "Worthy Resolutions for 2009."
The text was Jude vv. 17-23, keying on v. 20-23. Here are some key points:

1. Commit to pursuing spiritual growth (v. 20)

Jude urges us to CONTEND FOR THE FAITH
To do that we must know the scriptures and build ourselves up. 2 Timothy 2:15

2. Commit to obeying Jesus.................for the long haul (v. 21)

We must live in such a way as to receive the love that Jesus already has for us. He does not move from us; we move away from Him when we sin.

3. Commit to assisting others in their spiritual growth (v. 22-23)

When we were joined to Christ, we were also joined to all the other redeemed members of His Body.

Good resolutions for each and every year, not just 2009.
