Stand Firm: Take Care That You Are Not Carried Away
In this sermon Pastor Scott finishes this study through 1st and 2nd Peter. We end with the call to take care, or watch out that you are not carried away. Peter, throughout this letter has refuted the false teachers claims that Christ will not return and that there will not be coming judgment. So, instead, he has told them Christ will return, and the current universe will be burned up in judgment. Therefore, since his readers have been warned of this ahead of time, they are to live in response to it, by taking care that they will not be swept away with the errors of the false teachers. We are to stand firm. True saving faith is a persevering faith even in the face of false teaching. The Christian, instead is to be diligent to be judged by Christ as being without spot or blemish. And instead of being carried away by the errors, the false teaching, of lawless people, we are to be growing in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
