Experiences: How God Uses Our Past to Impact Our Present
Do our experiences from the past have any significance in the present? Would we be the same people we are today if our lives had somehow gone differently? Or do our experiences change us and forever affect the course of our lives? This sermon seeks to answer these questions.

An Encouraging Word Part 3: The Present Joy
Without using any future verbs, Peter draws a sharp contrast between the present and the future. We, as believers, may be suffering now, but we will soon rejoice. We are engaged in life’s warfare now (“guarded by the power of God”) but we will soon be victorious. Our faith is being tested now, but soon it will prove itself purer and more precious than gold.

The Past, Present, and Future of Every Christian
Christians are sometimes accused of looking down thier noses at others who are not saved. But we must remember where God brought us from, and what He's done for us. If we can do this, our mindset will change to actually do what the Lord commanded..."Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature"

The End Determines the Present
As Christians, knowing what happens at the end of our lives should radically influence our actions in the present. Because we know that one day we will stand before the judgment seat of Christ and give an account for our lives here on earth, we should be all-the-more challenged and motivated to live faithfully for Jesus Christ--by pursuing the welfare of others before ourselves.
