Given the various and conflicting views of water baptism, we must seek to digest and rightly understand all the related biblical data on this important ordinance.

God graciously works through a variety of means to bring us to repentance, both at the outset of the Christian life and throughout it, so that we might walk in fellowship with him.

We need to understand God’s amazing grace and sincerely respond to it with our whole hearts in light of the sinfulness of our sin.

In striving to embody their faith, Christians should concentrate on developing essential Biblical qualities to increase their effectiveness in ministering to others.

We must make all of life’s decisions with a resolve to do what pleases the Lord, as stewards, knowing that godly choices yield God’s blessings and eternal dividends.

Christmas Eve Service 2023

Just as God sent his Son at the first advent right on schedule, we should be assured that he will also dispatch his Son to establish a world of righteousness at just the right time.

Just as God sent his Son at the first advent right on schedule, we should be assured that he will also dispatch his Son to establish a world of righteousness at just the right time.

Listen to Pastor Mike's brief message following the 2023 Compass Kids Christmas Musical at Compass Bible Church.

We must reconsider the profound reality and far-reaching implications of the incarnate, fully-human, fully-divine Christ.

Express genuine love of God and others through Christ exalting character.

The increasing sin in our world will provoke anger in Christians, but we must be careful and restrained to never allow our emotions to propel sinful words or actions.

Pastor Mike Fabarez preaches a brief message from Acts 20:21 following baptisms at Compass Bible Church.

We are engaged in an internal battle with temptation which will rage until we are glorified, and until then will require daily vigilance and the serious application of every available godly resource.

Change the world through your righteous lifestyle and bold proclamation of truth, and so fulfill your Heavenly Father’s purpose for you as a disciple of Christ.

We should look for every opportunity to be strategic and faithful to serve the needs of those around us, even when we are in difficult seasons of life.

Being a Christian will require unique courage and boldness because of the unavoidable clash of our theology, values, and identity with so much of the rest of the world.

Strategic accommodations and biblically allowable personal adjustments will be necessary as we face the painful misunderstandings sure to continue among God’s people, this side of heaven.

We will have well-meaning friends who, out of love for us, will inadvertently tempt us to abandon the course of Christian obedience God has laid out for us.

God intends for his people to learn doctrine not as an end in itself, but to increase delight in, and empower our duty of, glorifying him.

Our work for God’s people is more than our duty, or an expression of our love for Christ, it is also our loving service for the people we have every reason to affectionately cherish as our spiritual family.

Being useful in the spiritual lives of God’s people is aided by hard work and generosity, and is thwarted by cravings for wealth and the trappings of worldly success.

Our service in the church must always prioritize biblical truth, guarding against the selfish ambitions that fracture the church and derail the sanctification of its congregants.

Knowing time is always running out, we must discern and fulfill our God-given stewardship to faithfully invest in the lives of others.

Guest sermon from Pastor Alex Montoya

Time to Get Serious (1 Peter 4:7-11) | Philip De Courcy

We must sincerely confess our sins that we might experience the confidence of having God’s gracious forgiveness.

We must evaluate our competing desires to serve God and our own comfort, resolutely deciding to persist in fulfilling the particular calling he has laid on our lives as Christians.

Our desire to be useful to the Lord for the spiritual benefit of others must begin with a sincere devotion to the Lord and a commitment to his eternal priorities.

Jesus gives his followers assurance and confidence in their communion with him, through the Spirit, when we sacrificially love others and do the things that are pleasing to him.

We need to repent of treating God as anything less than who he is and what he deserves—orienting our lives toward a reverential response to God.

We must work to be aware, reflective, and profoundly grateful for God’s grace in forgiving us, kindly upholding us, and providing us with a secured eternal hope.

Active, strategic, and frequent encouragement among Christians is biblically essential and should be the priority for all of us.

We ought to be confident in God’s sovereign work to advance the gospel in our generation, always seeking to be a righteous and wise agent in this successful task.

We need wisdom to discern the larger movements of society that rise up with hostility against the gospel and the values of God, knowing the Holy Spirit is graciously at work to defend us.

Modern culture is still inundated with idols, as each day people pursue goals which the one and only true God can truly and completely supply.

In a world that's constantly changing, Christians should find solace in an unchanging God and have confidence in His goodness.

Mature Christians understand the spiritual battle we are in, always assured of the enemy’s defeat and the foolishness of trusting in anything less than the Sovereign Christ.

Each of us must learn to biblically strengthen our fellow Christians in their faith, knowing how to encourage them and to wisely correct them when needed.

Listen to Compass Bible Church Huntington Beach Lead Pastor Bobby Blakey's guest sermon at Compass Bible Church Aliso Viejo.

By God’s grace, we can be recipients of Christ’s incomparable love that provides for our most profound needs by means of his life, death, and resurrection.

Good Friday 2023 at Compass Bible Church

People demand proof that Jesus deserves their submission and allegiance, but God has provided more than ample evidence and it is our honor and duty to relay it to them.

Love and devotion to Christ motivates serious Christians to sacrifice much in their pursuit of being maximally useful to the Lord.

Listen to Pastor Mike Fabarez's message from the March 19, 2023 baptisms at Compass Bible Church.

Listen to Pastor Mike Fabarez's message from the March 18, 2023 baptisms at Compass Bible Church.

We need the courage to faithfully represent Christ and his word in our generation by believing his promises that he will be with us and give us evangelistic success.

The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary President Albert Mohler preaches at Compass Bible Church

All of our connections, relationships, and friendships must be evaluated, strengthened, distanced, or dissolved based on the Lordship of Christ.

Biblical truth demands a response that should always be seriously pondered, quickly responded to, and never passed off lightly.

Your sovereign omnipotent Creator is knowable; he has revealed himself and requires you to become his lifelong learner.

We would do well to be aware of the prevailing worldly rationale which infects our thinking and threatens to pollute the biblical truths that are presented to us.

We must understand the gravity of our sinful plight to realize how gracious God is to draw us to himself through the means of his word.

We must always regard the gospel’s power to transform lives, even while it elicits bitter rejection and hostility from others.

Reflect on how to live wisely in God’s sight because you are always on the edge of eternity.

As Christians we need to know how true biblical hope, through Christ's death and resurrection, differs from a defiled worldly hope; to encourage us to live this temporary sin plagued life with a rejoicing hope looking forward to our reserved perfect home in heaven.

We should always be quick and resolute in an obedient response to God’s word, knowing that it is always worth it.

Christmas Eve service at Compass Bible Church in Aliso Viejo, CA.

Christmastime is the perfect time to anchor our minds on the person and work of Christ, knowing it is the ultimate reason for the incarnation.

Listen as Pastor Mike Fabarez delivers a devotional at the conclusion of the 2022 Compass Kids Christmas Musical.

We must revitalize our engagement in prayer, knowing we have access through Christ to bring our requests to a holy and omnipotent Creator.

When faced with challenges and resistance, Christian must not become unsettled and recoil in their service to the Lord but should instead be propelled to continue and even expand their efforts.

God is the source of all good things, which are designed for and gifted to his people to be gratefully received, enjoyed, and fully appreciated.

Baptism weekend at Compass Bible Church

As we continue to observe the downward spiraling of our world into greater wickedness, we must never lose sight of our central ministry, which is that of calling sinners to be reconciled to God through the Lord Jesus Christ, their only hope.

We must understand the proclivities of earthly governments, and when given the opportunity we must insist they do what is right for the people’s sake and for the good of the church.

We must be prepared and perceptive enough to capitalize on evangelistic opportunities that God has sovereignly placed before us.

As messengers and representatives of the gospel we will experience unjust and costly opposition, in which we should continue to entrust ourselves to our powerful Savior.

We must be mindful of the spiritual opposition we face when we attempt to serve Christ so that we might aggressively pray and dependently trust in the Lord to curtail our adversaries.

The complementary roles of men and women in ministry seen in biblical descriptions and prescriptions are good and godly, always to be joyfully observed by his people.

God will direct you to do what he specifically plans for you to do, as you are diligent to get to doing what he has written, and are discerning about his undeniable adjustments along the way.

Knowing God desires to utilize our lives for his purposes, we must be eager to make whatever strategic sacrifices needed to live out and hold out his unchanging truth.

Understanding the doctrine of God’s holiness will lead us to the humility God requires of us.

Our decisions about the best use of our Christian stewardship will at times conflict with other Christians; when they do we shouldn’t fret, but instead seek constructive solutions.

J. Warner Wallace at Compass Bible Church in Aliso Viejo, CA.

There are profound and desperately needed Christian benefits that come from being highly committed, selfless participants in your church family.

With so many distractions vying for our attention and for our affections, how necessary it is to be reminded of what should be of supreme priority.

In order to live by faith, persistently and dependently go to God for his divine wisdom.

Decide ahead of time to joyfully receive trials from God as a gift intended to strengthen your trust in him and to make you a more complete Christian.

The biblical reality of conversion to Christ bring with it a number of corresponding biblical experiences which all genuine Christians undergo.

Pastor Mike Fabarez answers questions about the Bible and the Christian life during all three weekend service at Compass Bible Church, July 16-17, 2022.

Biblical unity is not only a joyful and gratifying reality, it is also an essential component of any strong, vibrant, and fruitful church.

We must be wholeheartedly submissive to God’s word, sincerely calling for unity among God’s people under those truths, along with their wise application.

The gospel guarantees immediate, full, and unearned forgiveness based on God’s grace alone through faith alone, instructing us to commence with a life of doing good.

There are some debates worth having, especially those about the gospel and the central truths of Christianity.

Listen to Midwestern Seminary President Jason K. Allen's sermon at Compass Bible Church June 12, 2022.

Growing in godliness requires training in godliness.

As we work hard to fight the temptation to envy, God's Spirit fights through us and motivates us by his faithful promise to bring us final and eternal victory over sin.

God has graciously provided Christians his enablement and a set of commands which when faithfully obeyed will safeguard us against the destructive sin of envy.

God’s desire for his people is that we would pursue lives of godliness as an expression of our reverence, love, and worshipful devotion.

To begin to rout out the insidious sin of envy, we would do well to assess the costly toll it exacts on our interior life, our relationships, and the society in which we live.

Dr. Erwin Lutzer preaches at Compass Bible Church in Aliso Viejo, CA May 1, 2022.

We must work to identify the sin of envy, longing with God’s empowerment to experience freedom from this insidious and corrosive problem.

The weight of sin is crushing, but there is relief and full forgiveness in the death of Christ.

Easter 2022 at Compass Bible ChurchChrist’s death and resurrection solved our most pressing problem – a solution that urgently needs our response of faith.

Lifelong faithfulness and effectiveness as Christ’s ambassador is aided by both the unsettling thoughts of our coming evaluation as well as the joyful prospects of our eternal home.

A faithful and fruitful Christian life requires a tenacious endurance, which God supplies those who are resolute in trusting him and serving him.

We can expect non-Christians to often misunderstand the gospel message, but that should only motivate us to passionately and strategically clarify the truth.

As God's called agents in this world we must remain focused on our particular assignments, never fazed by the providential redirections as to how and where he utilizes us.

Believers must welcome their personal responsibility to advance the unity of the church, regardless of their level of spiritual maturity, by enlisting the tools God has provided.

Dr. Albert Mohler preaching at Compass Bible Church

To be useful ambassadors of Christ we cannot be impeded by closed doors, instead we must trust our sovereign God and embrace the opportunities before us whatever they might be.

God’s effective ambassadors must resolve to definitively call people to respond to Christ and be faithful to respond to their responses.

We are motivated to boldly proclaim the gospel when we understand the horrendous problem of sin and death, prizing the gracious forgiveness God made possible through the risen Christ.

Fruitful ambassadors of Christ are enthralled with their Savior who fulfilled the Scriptures and sacrificed himself to purchase our eternal redemption.

Useful ambassadors of Christ need to see earthly blessings as imperfect previews of the forthcoming realities to be graciously granted in God’s eternal kingdom.

We must see ourselves as Christ’s ambassadors always prepared and looking for opportunities to talk about God’s word and his plan of salvation.

We must never forget that it is the omnipotent God who enlists each of us to serve him and advance his truth in our generation.

God has planned a specific set of purposes for our generation and will personally work to enlist you to accomplish a set of them for his glory.

Commit to live according to God’s designated path for a truly happy and fruitful new year.

We must combat all anxieties about the future with a perpetual confidence in God's provision and an obsession with Christ's righteous agenda.

Christmas Eve 2021 service at Compass Bible Church in Aliso Viejo, CA.

The birth of the Eternal King in the humble village of Bethlehem should drive us to think about our values and recalibrate our lives in light of the countercultural Lordship of Christ.

We should never be apprehensive about following the example of biblical history in crafting our own festive traditions to honor and celebrate God’s redemptive work in Christ.

While life in this world can be confusing and complex, there remain a few simple and timeless components to living right for God.

Earthly powers will always be subject to the sovereign judgment of God, our job is to humbly serve the King of Kings and promote his greatness throughout the earth.

Our prayer lives ought to be an exercise in bolstering our confidence in God’s plan, power and purposes amid this seeming chaotic world.

We must never forget that the church is destined for violent opposition from earthly authorities, but we can gain the necessary strength and patient endurance through a fervent prayer life.

We ought to always be attuned to the practical needs of God’s people, ready to do what we can to demonstrate the love of Christ in tangible ways.

God will strongly support and unify the church devoted to Christ, responsive to her leaders, and engaged in his work.

Knowing Christians will have sincere and ardent disagreements, we should be ready when needed to employ reasoned and scriptural explanations in pursuit of Christian peace and unity.

God is at work preparing people for their engagement with his gospel message which we should always be ready to deliver with conviction, hope, and expectation.

As dependent followers of Christ our prayers lives must be defined by grit, developing alertness for battle, and devotedly grateful.

Our conversion to Christ and our subsequent work of sharing the gospel ought to impact and involve a network of friends and family members.

How should Christians respond to the claims of Critical Race Theory? In a special teaching at the September 2021 men's breakfast at Compass Bible Church, Pastor Mike Fabarez examines the arguments of CRT in light of biblical truth.

As with those God used to bring us to repentance and faith in Christ, we cannot let any barriers – theological or practical – get in the way of us sharing the gospel.

We must value and celebrate the pre-Christian grace of God, which he clearly demonstrates in drawing people to a receptive hearing of the gospel of Christ.

Listen to Pastor Chris Mueller's guest sermon at Compass Bible Church Sept. 5, 2021.

We should joyfully and wholeheartedly engage with the Christians in our church as God’s sacred instrument to safeguard and strengthen our loyalty to Christ in our deteriorating culture.

Dr. Frank Turek visits Compass Bible Church to answer the question, "If there is a God, why does he allow evil?"Turek is a leading apologetics expert and is the award-winning author or coauthor of four books: I Don’t Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist; Stealing from God: Why Atheists Need God to Make Their Case; Correct, Not Politically Correct; and Legislating Morality. He is also the president of crossexamined.org.

As Christians in this world, we will face opposition from a relentless enemy and so we must be sure that we are equipped and prepared, ready to stand through the battle.

Listen as Pastor Mike answers audience question during a special Q&A weekend at Compass Bible Church Aug. 8-9, 2021.

Point: God has confidently planned for the success of his church, our job is to trust him and be resolved, always planning to advance his truth, come what may.

We must appreciate and pursue the evangelistic power of a selfless, sacrificial, and generous Christian life.

Repentance requires a discernment of and submission to God’s incomparable power.

We must see the importance of being a highly-committed and fully-invested participant of a healthy (albeit imperfect) church knowing it is an indispensable part of the Christian life.

We must willingly embrace the new and difficult challenges that will necessarily accompany our new life in Christ.

We must never let fear or pain distract us from boldly following God’s revealed will for our lives, knowing that the Lord’s fruitful plan for our lives is always best.

To fully appreciate the grace of Christian regeneration we need to recall the futility and plight of our pre-Christian rebellion against God.

Empowered by God’s grace, we should aggressively pursue godliness and good works while we eagerly anticipate his return.

Christians should boldly and enthusiastically seek to be identified with Christ in water baptism and in our ongoing and unabashed work of evangelism.

We must intently study the Bible so we are competent to guide others in God’s truth which can lead them to forgiveness and new life in Christ.

We ought to always be ready and willing to obediently respond to God’s sovereign direction when he leads us and prompts us to engage non-Christians with the gospel.

As we advance the gospel, we must be ready to faithfully confront and correct those we lead to Christ, knowing that everyone will be tempted to fall into costly and corrupting sins.

We should rely on and revel in the role of the Holy Spirit in our lives, who works to empower and embolden us as God’s redeemed children to effectively represent him in this world.

Advancing the gospel must include a careful explanation of biblical repentance which calls everyone to a lifelong penitent submission to the King of kings.

We are called to verbalize to our generation the saving grace of the gospel of Christ, while always promoting the preserving and enriching grace of good and beneficial deeds.

Our lives should be all about accomplishing the job of gospel advancement, all because the gospel explains to the world how Christ got the job done when it comes to taking away our sin. Every Christian ought to point people to Jesus and encourage everyone to join the work of gospel advancement in our world.

No matter how much pressure and opposition we get from our culture to be quiet about our Christianity, we must resolve to continue telling the truth about Christ and his gospel.

Living in submission to the lordship of Christ may cost us now, but the eternal benefits purchased by his life, death, and resurrection far outweigh the value of living for ourselves.Easter 2021 at Compass Bible Church

Becoming fully acceptable to God by the fragrant sacrifice of Christ ought to lead us to extravagant gratitude.Matthew 26:6-13; Mark 14:3-9; John 12:1-8

God’s Spirit is drawing people to understand his answer to this rebellious world’s problems -- the person and work of his Son, Jesus Christ.

We shouldn’t be surprised at pushback from people when we faithfully deliver the gospel, because God always uses it for the unpleasant work of exposing sin and guilt before he uses it to save.

Dr. Matt Shackelford, Lead Teaching Pastor at Central Church in Collierville, TN, delivers a sermon from Psalm 46 while guest preaching at Compass Bible Church.

We should humbly worship our infinitely transcendent God because he has mercifully reached into every corner of the world to seek and save the lost.

It is always more costly than we think to follow our wayward enticements, and to turn away from obedience to Christ’s life-giving words.

We must learn to fully trust in the omniscient and compassionate triune God who has thoughtfully planned our salvation and will walk us through this life until our redemption is complete.

The vindication of the gospel always involves waiting, difficulties, and rejection—but God provides the resources to patiently and resolutely endure.

We have every reason to fully trust in God’s good promises, knowing how he has faithfully worked and is providentially working to deliver on them all.

It’s becoming increasingly difficult in our society to follow the Lord, but if you will anchor yourself to the Word of God you will find yourself safe in him and able to endure in any and every circumstance.

We must be ready to endure the disapproval and hostility of many to fulfill our purpose in restraining evil around us and winning some for Christ.

We ought to be gratefully reassured by the impeccable promises of God which have guaranteed us a future salvation through the work of the Jewish Messiah.

A godly fear of the Lord will prompt us to sincerely love and highly esteem his fruitful servants who courageously set an example of fighting for truth.

We must fear the Lord as our omnipotent Provider who will graciously meet all our needs to accomplish all he requires.

This next year, we must take seriously the stewarding of God’s investment in us for the purpose of serving and advancing the kingdom.

2020 Christmas Eve Service at Compass Bible Church: Christ's Christmas Mission: Redeem & Rebuild (Luke1:67-75) | Pastor Mike Fabarez

Because our Leader – the incarnate Christ – is sovereign and omnipotent we can traverse any crisis with calm and courage no matter how difficult the circumstances may get.

This December, in a year when we’ve all had to rethink the role of governments, jurisdictions, and authorities, is a perfect time to revisit the claims of a baby born in Bethlehem—who is said to possess ultimate authority and universal jurisdiction. This living Christ logically demands our loyalty, love, and allegiance.

Being faithful and obedient to Christ in a fallen culture will always come with painful consequences for which we should be prepared and be willing to gladly endure for Christ’s sake.

Care much more about your eternal future home than you do about your temporary earthly home.

When our governing authorities actively oppose the work of the Church, Christians must remember that for the good of all we must fear God and be loyal to the King of kings.

Like the early church and the Apostles, today’s Christians ought to sincerely love and highly esteem their church leaders who are gifted, called, trained, and qualified to lead them and their churches into greater fruitfulness.

As a Christian you are commanded to live out your faith in community of the church. But your call is not only community; it's unity as well. Your calling takes humility, gentleness and patience in order to truly live worthy of God's collective call for the church -- all for the glory of God in Christ for all generations.

We must take sin seriously, longing to please our Redeemer and fearing his discipline as we focus on our mission, doing nothing to detract from its effectiveness.

When the church is functioning as it ought, it serves as a strengthening and emboldening oasis for us as we venture out each day to point people to Christ in our anti-Christian culture.

Dr. Bill Mounce delivers a guest sermon from Mark 12:29-30 at Compass Bible Church, entitled Love God With All Your Mind.

We must be careful to never allow our quest to bear the fruit of the Spirit to become a prideful or competitive endeavor.

Hear the stories of God's saving grace in the lives of 18 souls at Compass Bible Church baptism services Oct. 3-4, 2020.

Because God’s Spirit has graciously done so much to redeem us, save us, and give us new life, we ought to certainly give our all to know him, love him, and wholeheartedly follow his instructions for our lives.

Bearing the fruit of the Spirit is a battle that only results in real progressive victory over the desires of the flesh by those who are regenerate and actively reinforce and apply their repentance each day.

Getting our fallen physical and moral impulses to yield to our spiritual desires is never easy, but it is something that God’s Spirit has promised to enable us to do with increasing success as we pray for it and fight for it.

By God’s power our bold, courageous, and sometimes indignant resolve to do right must be thoughtfully governed by a humble, constructive, and Christlike propriety, regardless of the provocations from our sinful world.

God is perfectly reliable, consistent, and faithful in all his words and actions – a virtuous pattern that his Spirit has promised to produce in us as we understand it and purpose to reflect it.

God will change our core desires to enable us to persistently seek after what is good, as we call out for a new heart and continue to resolve to do what is good.

We must learn the definition and application of kindness from an ongoing biblical study of God’s character, in prayerful hope of reflecting that same godly kindness in our relationships.

A vibrant and fruitful walk with God only comes through a consistently cultivated relationship with Jesus.

Christians are promised to have the strength to power through all of the daily demands of life as we hope in the faithful promises and perfect timing of our Sovereign God.

God wants to provide, produce, and promote peace in the most important arenas of your life, as you diligently seek it, pray for it, and pursue it.

God has commanded and will supply what is needed for us to experience and maintain the positive and optimistic virtue he calls joy, regardless of our circumstances.

The presence and activity of God’s Spirit in our lives is displayed by the increasing expressions of Christlike love, which don’t come easy, but will come, as we understand and cooperate with what God is working to do through us.

Because God has guaranteed his children a completely perfect and totally fulfilling future, we must trust him enough to allow these promises to make us confident and courageous until we get there.

Knowing our real home is in Christ’s forthcoming kingdom, we have to get used to being ok with feeling like strangers and exiles in this present life, seeking to uncompromisingly please the coming King.

We must regularly go back to the basics of the Christian life to re-engage and recommit ourselves to our spiritual disciplines - including prayer, evangelism, and apologetics.

What is needed now more than ever is a biblically strong church wherein each member is fully engaged in pursuing godliness and zealously serving the coming King.

When we are witness to the evils of this fallen world we must fear God, be sure of our salvation, and get to work to persuasively share the only message that can save people from the eternal consequences of their sinful deeds.

We need to reject the competitive, shortsighted, and destructive “wisdom” of the world, and instead seek and ask God to provide the peaceful and reasonable wisdom that was modeled for us by Christ.

As Christians we of all people should be confident and fearless about death’s forthcoming reality, assured of Christ’s victory on our behalf over its eternal effects.

When we as Christians are weary or doubting God’s love and provision in the midst of trying times, we need to be strengthened by resolutely believing what is true and by doing what is right.

We must always remember that this world is not our home and that all of our ultimate priorities should be fixed on Christ and his coming kingdom.

Especially in the midst of a societal slowdown, we as Christians must realize the high calling God places on our lives to be productive, industrious, and disciplined workers.You Were Not Made to Idle | Special Weekend Video Sermon | Pastor Mike Fabarez

Even when there are drastic changes to our plans and unexpected restrictions on our freedoms, we must purpose with the Apostle Paul to creatively make the most of every situation to the glory of God.

We must be flexible, deferential, and loving as we experience the divergence of opinion about issues related to COVID-19 and our forthcoming resumption of our services, knowing that there are many convictions which are neither biblically right or wrong.

In the middle of a life-altering health crisis, we must stop to reconsider the message of Easter and the meaning of Christ’s resurrection.

Message from Dr. Albert Mohler on March 1, 2020

Message from Pastor Mike Fabarez on February 23, 2020

God has promised and we should expect his Spirit’s strong support in our efforts to promote his Son as the indispensable and exclusive means of the forgiveness of our sins.

We must keep the prize of Christ’s growing and victorious church in view as we courageously incur any of the adverse consequences of engaging in the good fight of promoting the gospel in our generation.

As messengers of the gospel we must fully appreciate and clearly communicate, not only the eternal benefits of salvation, but also the present benefits of being a follower of Christ.

We, like Peter, must proclaim the offer of forgiveness in Christ by calling people to repentance and the hope of a promised future inheritance in God’s coming kingdom.

Message from Abner Chou on January 19, 2020

We must be careful in our evangelism to be painfully honest about the universal problem of human rebellion against God always keeping the focus on Christ and his power and not ourselves.

We must be more attuned to the effects of sin in our world and boldly proclaim the power of a Savior who will not only instantaneously forgive our transgressions, but will one day reverse all the systemic consequences of sin.
