THE NEED TO KNOW
The New Testament repeatedly commands us to know what we believe.
Follow the pattern of the sound words that you have heard from me, in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. By the Holy Spirit who dwells within us, guard the good deposit entrusted to you. 2 Timothy 1:13-14
In a culture that is rapidly changing & rapidly redefining so much things, this command seems more important than ever.
We need to know what we believe. And we need to know how to live what we believe.
