What’s your plan for 2017?
Truth is essential to the life of the Christian in particular and of the body of Christ in general. Pastors need to preach it. Members need to receive it. We all need to obey it. As a new year approaches, are you making plans to continue a careful daily reading of the Scriptures? Make a plan and make it happen.
Today’s reading:
My selection:
I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. 2 Timothy 4:1-4
