Grace-Driven Praise and Gospel Warfare

1 Timothy is a letter written from Paul to Timothy, who is a young pastor of a church in Ephesus. The clear aim and charge of the letter is found in chapter 3, verse 14-15 where Paul writes, "... I am writing these things to you so that, if I delay, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, a pillar and buttress of the truth." Through this series we hope that God would make us into what he desires, a faithful church.

I Fought the Law (And the Law Won) - 1 Timothy 1:5-11

1 Timothy is a letter written from Paul to Timothy, who is a young pastor of a church in Ephesus. The clear aim and charge of the letter is found in chapter 3, verse 14-15 where Paul writes, "... I am writing these things to you so that, if I delay, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, a pillar and buttress of the truth." Through this series we hope that God would make us into what he desires, a faithful church. 

The audio quality is very poor. We thought it best to share the poor quality audio from the sermon rather than not sharing at all knowing that many at Veritas rely on listening to the audio when they are prevented from attending the service. These issues will be resolved quickly. We love you guys! (It may be best to listen without headphones)

The End of Judges - Judges 19 - 21

Judges tells the story of a people who continually remain faithless while God remains faithful to them. In Gods kindness he raised up Judges to draw the people back to himself during this lawless and brutal period in the history of Israel. The purpose of the book of Judges is not to point to good qualities of the "heroes" that God worked through and try to imitate them, but rather to recognize the peoples need for the true hero, Jesus. This remains true today, we are constantly realizing our need for a savior knowing the we cannot attain the perfection that the law of God demands but Jesus has lived the perfect life for us. Let us learn from the mistakes of the Israelites and rely wholly on the true hero King Jesus.
