Prepare Your Mind for Action Part 1

June 11, 2024

We are living in one of the most significant times in human history.  Christ could come back at any moment.  Now does that mean we can just kick back, relax, and wait around for that to happen?  Actually the Lord wants to use us for His glory, be sober minded, and prepare our minds for action! Let’s see what that entails here today on Light on the Hill, as we join pastor James Kaddis in First Peter chapter one.

References: 1 Peter 1:13-16

When we’re in the midst of a trial we so often cry out to God, “Lord get me out of this!”  But in light of what we’re about to read today on Light on the Hill, a better prayer might be, “Lord what do you want me to get out of this?”  Pastor James Kaddis takes us to First Peter chapter one and shows us that the trials we go through bring more value to us than the most valuable metal on this earth!

We’re about to open the book of Acts, as we continue our intriguing series, “In the Volume of the Book.”  Think of this as a through the Bible study with an emphasis on prophecy.  We’ve all experienced it…. we hear someone say something and the Holy Spirit alarm bells are going off in our heart.  What do you do?  We’ll learn today why it’s so important to fact check, and search the Scriptures to see if it’s really true.

When you lose your job, or your family is falling apart, or your hit with a life-threatening illness you might be tempted to think could it get any worse.  It’s during those times we need to remember what’s waiting for us!  The best is yet to come for the Christian.   God also wants you to know your salvation is secure and nothing or no one can take it away.  Today on Light on the Hill those encouraging truths comes to our attention, as pastor James Kaddis revisits 1 Peter chapter one.

Have you ever received a note of encouragement right in the midst of great suffering?  A well spoken word at just the right time can really be helpful. And that’s what we find in the epistle of First Peter.  It was written to Christians who were unjustly persecuted, and encountering fiery trials like you wouldn’t believe.   We can benefit from the letter too, and receive God’s encouragement and instruction for the difficult seasons of life.  Today on Light on the Hill, pastor James Kaddis speaks of a living hope, and what’s in our future as believers in Christ.

Typically Christians either believe God elects some for salvation, or that man is responsible and has the freedom to choose to be saved.  But is it possible God’s sovereignty and man’s responsibility intersect in a beautiful way?   See how the two merge together today on Light on the Hill as our study of First Peter continues!

The Bible tells us so much about what to expect in the present day, what we can learn from the past, and what awaits us in the future.  If you reject the message of Christ, your future looks bad.  If you’ve placed your trust in the true and living God, your future looks bright.  Today on Light on the Hill we’ll focus on the hope that comes from walking with Christ.

As our world is in the middle of great turmoil and many are discouraged and afraid, we can turn to the solid ground of Scripture for hope and encouragement!  When times are tough, the book of First Peter is a good place to turn.  And that’s where we’re headed today and in the coming weeks on Light on the Hill.  Pastor James Kaddis likens this book to an end times survival guide, as it shows us not only how to survive but thrive in these last days.

Our series, “In the Volume of the Book,” kicks into high gear today on Light on the Hill as we pay a visit to Acts and hear the wonderful prophecy contained in this New Testament book.  Pastor James Kaddis is our Bible teacher and right now we’re going from Genesis to Revelation pointing out significant prophecy as we go along.

Today on Light on the Hill we’re going to walk you through a brief survey and introduction to the book of 1 Peter. This book is relevant for many reasons, but perhaps the most significant benefit that we stand to gain from this book is learning how to live in the most difficult time in world history.

Today we’ll be putting the finishing touches on our series in the epistle of James. In a time of great spiritual warfare, affliction, illness or suffering it’s a good idea to look up and pray.  While we as Christians know we should do that, it’s often neglected at such times isn’t it?  So let’s be encouraged now to pray, seek the Lord, and put Him first in all that we say and do.
