We must remain constantly vigilant against the unrelenting efforts of God’s spiritual enemies to strategically displace the authority of Scripture with the authority of their own voices.

We must learn to biblically assess spiritual leaders and wholeheartedly commit to those who demonstrate the qualifications God's Word requires.

Because God is jealous for our allegiance to Christ, we must guard our devotion from deceptive and twisted views of Christianity.

We must never perform for our critics or let them shape our character, but we must always stay faithful where God has placed us and aim to please Christ.

Because the resurrected Christ has proven his authority as our divine life-giver and judge, we must respond to his call and trust him for eternal life to escape the judgment we deserve.

God previewed the rich meaning and impact of Christ’s redemptive work through the Old Testament symbols of the Ark of the Covenant, its sacrifices, and its rituals.

We will often be judged by surface-level impressions and assumptions, but we must stay focused on our spiritual integrity and refuse to play the comparison game.

Knowing that we will encounter criticism, we must work to always respond more like Christ, enlisting, powerful, and wise resources that God provides us.
