What does repentance look like? Have we really repented of our sins?

When you go to a concert, you are mostly focused on the entertainer but when you are gathered with other believers in your worship service, you are not there to be entertained. You are there to worship God with your church family. Today's message deals with some of the relationships in your church family and how to protect them.

Unlike those who will turn away from the true gospel, we must protect ourselves by these four actions.

This week, we looked at Paul's list of qualifications for the deacons and then asked the question "How should the elders, the deacons and the rest of the church work together?"

What is an overseer? Today's message shows the qualifications of being a pastor and also has four applications for the congregation.

What is a godly man and what is a godly woman? That is just two of the questions that we tackled this morning. If we want God to bless our church or bless our homes, we have to be the godly men and women that He has made us to be.

After Junior Sidebottom read today's text, we dove right in these three main thoughts.

1. We should be praying for all people to repent and be saved.
2. God is sovereign which means He answers to no one, He depends on no one and no one can stop Him from accomplishing whatever He chooses to do.
3. We must let the context of the Bible interpret the meaning of the Bible.

We answer many questions today so I encourage you to listen to this and evaluate this message according to God's Word.

Today's passage showed the contrast between the false teachers and the apostle Paul. We need to focus on God's Word so we will recognize what is truth and what is not.
