Jesus told the church at Ephesus in Revelation 2:4 that, “I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.” Unfortunately, in this day of apathy and indifference, many churches and individual Christians could have that same charge leveled against them that Jesus proclaimed to the Ephesian saints.
In many cases, churches are struggling because of the idolatry in the lives of God’s people. Additionally, there are quite a few that might believe they are redeemed because of their works and they are trusting in what they do in order to be saved, and yet the Bible makes clear repeatedly that it is only by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone that one can be saved from the penalty of sin.
Pastor Josh Tadlock preaches the Scriptures in such a way that emphasizes that God is sovereign in all things including salvation, current events, and that He alone is worthy of praise, adoration, and obedience. It is clear in the Bible, that Jesus Christ is “King of kings and Lord of lords,” (1 Tim. 6:15), and that one day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (Phil. 2:9-11).
Pastor Josh is available to offer a fresh voice on the modern maladies so that people will see their need for a Savior, or to grow in their love for Christ. Please contact us for preaching opportunities so that lives can be changed by God’s life-giving Word.
