LONG STORY SHORT
1. WE MUST THINK PROPERLY ABOUT THE END TIMES
2 Peter 3:1-2 Dear friends, this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as
reminders to stimulate you to wholesome thinking. (2) I want you to recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and the command given by our Lord and Savior through your apostles.
2. JUDGMENT IS COMING
2 Peter 3:3-7 Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. (4) They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” (5) But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. (6) By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. (7) By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly. Acts 2:16-17 No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:
(17) “In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.”
3. GOD CURRENTLY OFFERS PATIENCE
2 Peter 3:8-9 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. (9) The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
2 Peter 3:15 Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him.
4. JESUS WILL COME UNEXPECTEDLY
2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.
5. THE END SHOULD IMPACT US NOW
2 Peter 3:11-12(a) Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives (12) as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming.
2 Peter 3:14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him.
6. WE HAVE A HOPE
2 Peter 3:12(b)-13 That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. (13) But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.

1 Corinthians 6:9-11 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of
God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor
men who have sex with men (10) nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers
nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. (11) And that is what some of you were.
But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord
Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
2. A NEW COMMUNITY
Matthew 16:17-18 Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not
revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven. (18) And I tell you that you
are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome
it.
1 Peter 2:9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special
possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into
his wonderful light.
1 Corinthians 12:27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.

LONG STORY SHORT
1. A QUESTION FROM JOHN
Luke 7:18-23 John’s disciples told him about all these things. Calling two of them, (19) he
sent them to the Lord to ask, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone
else?” (20) When the men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to you to ask, ‘Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?’ ”
(21) At that very time Jesus cured many who had diseases, sicknesses and evil spirits, and
gave sight to many who were blind. (22) So he replied to the messengers, “Go back and
report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those
who have leprosy are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is
proclaimed to the poor. (23) Blessed is anyone who does not stumble on account of me.”
Acts 2:22 Fellow Israelites, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God
to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you
yourselves know.
2. A QUESTION FROM JESUS
Luke 9:18-20 Once when Jesus was praying in private and his disciples were with him, he
asked them, “Who do the crowds say I am?” (19) They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, that one of the prophets of long ago has come back to life.”
(20) “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “God’s
Messiah.”
John 20:30-31 Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. (31) But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (12) Then you will
call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. (13) You will seek me and
find me when you seek me with all your heart. (14) I will be found by you,” declares the
LORD, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and
places where I have banished you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back to the
place from which I carried you into exile.”
2. RETURN TO JERUSALEM
Ezra 6:15-16 The temple was completed on the third day of the month Adar, in the sixth year of the reign of King Darius. (16) Then the people of Israel—the priests, the Levites and the rest of the exiles - celebrated the dedication of the house of God with joy.
Nehemiah 8:5-6 Ezra opened the book. All the people could see him because he was standing above them; and as he opened it, the people all stood up. (6) Ezra praised the LORD, the great God; and all the people lifted their hands and responded, “Amen! Amen!” Then they bowed down and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground.
Ezekiel 36:24-28 “For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you from all the countries
and bring you back into your own land. (25) I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be

new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. (27) And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be
careful to keep my laws. (28) Then you will live in the land I gave your ancestors; you will be

17 SEP 2024 · “Covenant”
LONG STORY SHORT
1. THE COVENANT WITH ABRAM.
Genesis 12:1-3 The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you. (2) “I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. (3) I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”
Genesis 15:8-12 But Abram said, “Sovereign LORD, how can I know that I will gain possession of it?” (9) So the LORD said to him, “Bring me a heifer, a goat and a ram, each three years old, along with a dove and a young pigeon.” (10) Abram brought all these to him, cut them in two and arranged the halves opposite each other; the birds, however, he did not cut in half. (11) Then birds of prey came down on the carcasses, but Abram drove them away.
(12) As the sun was setting, Abram fell into a deep sleep, and a thick and dreadful darkness came over him.
Genesis 15:17-21 When the sun had set and darkness had fallen, a smoking firepot with a blazing torch appeared and passed between the pieces. (18) On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram and said, “To your descendants I give this land, from the Wadi of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates – (19) the land of the Kenites, Kenizzites, Kadmonites, (20) Hittites, Perizzites, Rephaites,(21) Amorites, Canaanites, Girgashites and Jebusites.”
2. THE COVENANT WITH ISRAEL
Exodus 24:1-7 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Come up to the LORD, you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel. You are to worship at a distance, (2) but Moses alone is to approach the LORD; the others must not come near. And the people may not come up with him.” (3) When Moses went and told the people all the LORD’s words and laws, they responded with one voice, “Everything the LORD has said we will do.” (4) Moses then wrote down everything the LORD had said. He got up early the next morning and built an altar at the foot of the mountain and set up twelve stone pillars representing the twelve tribes of Israel. (5) Then he sent young Israelite men, and they offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls as fellowship offerings to the LORD. (6) Moses took half of the blood and put it in bowls, and the other half he splashed against the altar. (7) Then he took the
Book of the Covenant and read it to the people. They responded, “We will do everything the LORD has said; we will obey.”
Galatians 3:19 Why, then, was the law given at all? It was added because of
transgressions until the Seed to whom the promise referred had come.
Deuteronomy 7:7-9 The LORD did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples. (8) But it was because the LORD loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt. (9) Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.
10 SEP 2024 · “Curse”
LONG STORY SHORT
1. NATURAL CORRUPTION
Genesis 3:17-19 To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the
tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’
“Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat food from it all the
days of your life. (18) It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants
of the field. (19) By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the
ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.”
Genesis 3:16 To the woman he said, “I will make your pains in childbearing very
severe; with painful labor you will give birth to children.”
2. MORAL CORRUPTION
Genesis 3:22-24 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing
good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of
life and eat, and live forever.” (23) So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden
to work the ground from which he had been taken. (24) After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.
1 John 1:8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.
3 SEP 2024 · “Creation”
LONG STORY SHORT
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
1. GOD IS ALL POWERFUL.
Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal
power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been
made, so that people are without excuse.
Revelation 4:11 “You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and
power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their
being.”
2. GOD IS RELATIONAL
Genesis 1:26-27 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so
that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and
all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
(27) So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
Genesis 1:28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill
the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over
every living creature that moves on the ground.”
Genesis 2:15-17 The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to
work it and take care of it. (16) And the LORD God commanded the man, “You are free
to eat from any tree in the garden; (17) but you must not eat from the tree of the
knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”
Genesis 3:8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God as he was
walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the LORD God among the
trees of the garden.
27 AUG 2024 · “Then Comes a Lifetime Together”
FIRST COMES LOVE
Matthew 19:1-3 When Jesus had finished saying these things, he left Galilee and went into the
region of Judea to the other side of the Jordan. (2) Large crowds followed him, and he healed
them there. (3) Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful for a man to
divorce his wife for any and every reason?”
Matthew 19:4-6 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made
them male and female,’ (5) and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother
and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? (6) So they are no longer two,
but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
Matthew 19:6 “Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
1. WHAT GOD HAS JOINED TOGETHER.
2. LET NO ONE SEPARATE
1) A New Family Together
2) Increased Intimacy

4) Spiritual Connection
5) Security
18 AUG 2024 · “Then Comes Sacrifice”
FIRST COMES LOVE
Ephesians 5:22-33 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. (23) For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. (24) Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
(25) Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for
her (26) to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, (27) and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. (28) In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. (29) After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church – (30) for we are members of his body.
(31) “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the
two will become one flesh.” (32) This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church. (33) However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
1. WIVES SUBMIT
Ephesians 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his
body, of which he is the Savior.
Ephesians 5:24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their
husbands in everything.
2. HUSBANDS LOVE
Ephesians 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself
up for her
Ephesians 5:28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He
who loves his wife loves himself.
Matthew 7:12 “In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you”
Ephesians 5:33 However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the
wife must respect her husband.
