A People Set Apart

And When Thou Art Converted
Peter walked with Christ, witnessed His power, and ministered in His name—yet Jesus still told him, “when thou art converted.” Examine what true conversion requires, why following Christ is not the same as surrendering fully to Him, and how conversion prepares us to strengthen others.

Approaching God
Through Jesus Christ, believers have direct access to the Father—but how should we approach a holy God? Examine Christ’s role as our High Priest and mediator, the privilege of prayer, and the humility, faith, forgiveness, and reverence that should shape our time in the presence of God.

Are You Truly Saved?
What does it truly mean to believe in Jesus Christ and be saved? Scripture promises eternal life through Him, but does belief leave the life unchanged? Examine salvation, obedience, and the transforming power of Christ—and whether the gospel being preached today tells the whole story.

Be Ye Holy
God commands His people, “Be ye holy; for I am holy.” But what does holiness require in everyday life? Follow Scripture’s connection between holiness, obedience, and what God calls clean and unclean, and examine whether His instructions concerning what we eat still matter for Christians today.

Behold, I Have Made Thee a Watchman
God appointed watchmen to hear His word and warn His people of approaching danger. What does that responsibility mean for believers today? Examine the biblical role of the watchman, the cost of remaining silent, and our duty to stand faithfully upon the Word of God.

Behold, The Lamb of God
Why did Jesus have to die? From the entrance of sin to the sacrifices of the Old Testament, Scripture reveals why blood was required for atonement. Follow the biblical pattern that points to Jesus Christ as the Lamb of God who came to take away the sin of the world.

David and Goliath
David faced a giant he could never defeat by his own strength, yet he entered the battle trusting completely in God. Revisit this familiar story as a lesson in faith, spiritual warfare, and the courage to face opposition knowing that “the battle is the LORD’S.”

Except Ye Repent
Is asking God for forgiveness the same as repentance? Scripture presents repentance as more than words—it requires a decisive turning from sin. Examine what it means to repent, confess, turn, and be converted, and why Jesus warned, “except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.”

Go, And Sin No More
When Jesus said, “Go, and sin no more,” was He commanding the impossible? Examine the biblical difference between committing an act of sin and living in the practice of sin, and how spiritual growth, obedience, and surrender to the Holy Spirit lead believers toward maturity in Christ.

In Christ
What does it really mean to be “in Christ”? Scripture describes more than a profession of faith—it reveals a new creature whose old life is passing away. Examine the transformation, obedience, spiritual growth, and commitment that should become visible when Christ truly lives in us.

In Spirit and in Truth
Jesus said that true worshippers must worship the Father “in spirit and in truth.” What does that require? Examine the heart, doctrine, sincerity, and obedience behind true worship—and why outward religion cannot substitute for a life and profession that agree with the Word of God.

Intimate Idolatry
Idolatry may seem like an ancient sin, yet anything that turns the heart away from God can become an idol. Examine how Satan works subtly within the lives of believers, how seemingly innocent attachments can compete with God, and why each of us must search where our true loyalties lie.

The Fruit of Our Lips
Our words reveal more than we may realize—they bear witness to what is in our hearts. Examine what Scripture teaches about the tongue, profane and vain speech, and the responsibility of those who bear Christ’s name to surrender their mouths to God and honor Him with the fruit of their lips.

The Garden of Gethsemane
In Gethsemane, the humanity of Jesus Christ was revealed under a weight of suffering few can comprehend. Enter the garden through the testimony of Scripture and consider His anguish, His prayer to the Father, His complete submission, and the price He willingly faced for mankind.

The Light of the World
Jesus called His disciples “the light of the world,” entrusting them with both truth and example. Examine the responsibility of believers and church leaders to represent Christ through sound doctrine and godly living—and the danger when false teaching and worldly conduct dim that light.

The Narrow Way
Jesus said the way that leads to life is narrow—and few find it. What does it actually mean to enter the strait gate and remain on that path? Examine the sacrifice, obedience, perseverance, and uncompromising commitment to Christ required when the crowd is traveling another way.

They Who Hunger and Thirst
Jesus pronounced a blessing upon those who “hunger and thirst after righteousness”—but what does that hunger look like in the life of a believer? Examine righteousness by the standard of God’s Word and what it means to desire His ways as urgently as the body desires food and water.

Works of the Flesh
Paul warns that those who practice the works of the flesh will not inherit the kingdom of God—but do we recognize those works in our own lives? Examine what Scripture means by these sins, how they take root in our character, and why believers must put them away and walk in the Spirit.
