The Comfort of a Persevering Faith

By John Fast

“But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come.” – 2 Timothy 3:1

Anyone who has been observing the current state of professing Christendom and the drift of the church, and who is not totally apathetic to the spiritual and moral decay of our times, cannot help but notice that we live in an age when uncertainty, conciliation, and compromise in matters of faith and doctrine is considered more Christian than dogmatism, exposing error, persevering in the truth, and contending earnestly for the faith once for all delivered to the saints (Jude 3).

Faith

By John Fast

“But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come.” – 2 Timothy 3:1

We tend to think, and with good reason, that we live in dangerous, discouraging, and confusing times. We see much false religion and so few faithful pastors and churches.

Regeneration

By John Fast

“But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come.” – 2 Timothy 3:1

In the previous study I plainly demonstrated the necessity of a true work of God in the heart and of a true conversion and new birth to prepare a person for the sufferings inherent with living in a dangerous season. Exactly what this new birth or regeneration entails, the nature of regeneration, and how it prepares a person for even the hardest and most trying services is what I intend to cover in this study.

What It Takes To Be Ready

By John Fast

“But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come.” – 2 Timothy 3:1

Have you ever experienced in some measure what it is like to receive a crashing blow to your faith on one side, and then almost immediately receive another blow on the other side? Then, before you can regain your senses, you receive another blow to the middle that leaves you gasping (Job 9:18)? Have you ever known what it is to have your faith dazed, stunned, and sent reeling?
