We can’t live out the Gospel by accident. As Alistair Begg explains, we must contend for the Gospel, living with purpose and intentionality. Scoffers and con artists are ever present, waiting to draw Christians off the path. If the body of Christ continues to keep us in the love of Christ, though, we will be saved. We must also deal gently with those who doubt, pointing them to the love which keeps us all, for the glory of His name.
17But you must tremember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. 18They6 said to you, u“In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.” 19It is these who cause divisions, worldly people, vdevoid of the Spirit. 20But you, beloved, wbuilding yourselves up in your most holy faith and xpraying in the Holy Spirit, 21ykeep yourselves in the love of God, zwaiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. 22And have mercy on those who doubt; 23save others by asnatching them out of bthe fire; to others show mercy cwith fear, hating even dthe garment7 stained by the flesh.
24eNow to him who is able fto keep you from stumbling and gto present you hblameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, 25to ithe only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, jbe glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time8 and now and forever. Amen.
