Earnestly Contending… volume 2

It is our prayer that you will find the contents of this most recent issue of  “Earnestly Contending for the Faith” edifying and useful in your Christian walk.

The Bible Presbyterian Church has a long and proud history of “earnestly contending for the faith once delivered to the saints.”  This bi-monthly publication, we hope, will be found to be solidly in that tradition and we ask for your prayers as we undertake this project.

These are challenging days and it is important that the believer be fully equipped to serve Christ faithfully and …be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ (1 Peter 3:15-16).

We hope this little newsletter will help towards that end, as well as clarify some of the issues of the day—including those within our own family.

Back issues are available here.

Isaiah 40:5-8

5 The glory of the LORD shall be revealed,
And all flesh shall see it together;
For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.”
6 The voice said, “Cry out!”
And he[b] said, “What shall I cry?”

“ All flesh is grass,
And all its loveliness is like the flower of the field.
7 The grass withers, the flower fades,
Because the breath of the LORD blows upon it;
Surely the people are grass.
8 The grass withers, the flower fades,
But the word of our God stands forever.”
