“God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and love and self-control” (2 Timothy 1:7, ESV)
Is it evident to those around you that you have self-control? Are you a person who chooses to do what is right even when you may want to do what is wrong? If you are a Christian, this trait should be growing in your life. If you are not a Christian, you are missing out on so much that God has to offer you , and self-control is just one of those things. In a world which seems so out-of-control at times, we need more people who regularly practice self-control. Will you be one of those?

There is a question which must be answered by each of us this morning. It comes from another hymn we often sing:
Who is on the Lord’s side, standing for the right
Lifting up His banner in the thickest fight,
Listening for His orders, ready to obey,
Who is on the Lord’s side, serving Him today?
Are you a friend of Jesus? Are you on the Lord’s side?
Why do people not obey the gospel? An Unwillingness to Believe and Obey. The gospel message about Jesus Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection is all that we need to believe.…
