As Christians, it is important that we approach the Lord's Table in a right manner. It represents our unity with Christ and one another, Christ's authority over us, and his provision for his people.
Salvation belongs to the Lord, and if we are true Christians, we cannot fall away from the faith. However, we are called to examine ourselves, in our hearts and our lives, to see if we are truly in the faith.
The biblical Christian's life should be marked by prayer, which is acknowledgment of God's sovereignty, and particularly his sovereignty in salvation. Only through relying on God can our message be clear, bold, and biblical.
We are all one in Christ, and there is no separation or distinction based on race or ethnicity. The gospel is the only thing that can bring true, authentic unity.
The Bible lays out clear standards for marriage, including mutual love and respect, biblical headship, and joyful submission, and only when we truly love Jesus Christ can we fulfill these roles.
