The Remnant
Our mission is Jesus. Family. Fellowship. We don't want to play church. We want to equip people to BE the church. We want people to experience God's life-changing power through His truth and grace. We want people to have a REAL relationship with a REAL God who REALLY loves them. We are not a dead Church. We don't do Religion. We worship JESUS! We reject Cozy Christianity! This is HIS Church, and WE are His REMNANT people.

Prove It!
Speaker: Pastor Ian Robbins
• We don’t change our lives in order to be saved;
When we’re saved, that’s what changes our lives
• True faith always results in a changed life
• Our obedience is the evidence of true saving faith
• Belief = faith in action (James 2:14-20)
• When we obey Him, we prove that we love Him.
(John 14:15, 21)
• Would there be enough evidence to convict you if you were to stand trial for your faith in Jesus?
• We must examine ourselves (2 Corinthians 13:5)
3 test questions to help you examine and ultimately prove your faith
1. What is your relationship with SIN?
• New creation = new relationship with sin
• Are you sensitive to sin?
• Lifestyle of living for Jesus ≠ lifestyle of sin (1 John 3:7-9)
• God’s promise to forgive (1 John 1:9)
2. What is your relationship with the WORD?
• Is it part of your daily life?
• It’s our “owner’s manual” on life (2 Timothy 3:16)
• What kind of relationship should we have?
o Psalm 119 (11, 15-16, 40, 47, 56, 97, 103, 111, 114, 120)
• Why is this important? The Word = Jesus (John 1:1-5)
• How to know that you know that you know Jesus….
o 1 John 2:3-6
• Loving him = lifestyle of obedience
• Jesus (the Word) is the only standard of measurement we can use to truly examine ourselves
3. What is your relationship with OTHERS?
• Cannot be a follower of Jesus without loving others (John 13:35)
• Would you give your life for someone else?
(1 John 3:14-19)
• Your life is your witness
“Work hard to prove that you really are among those God has called and chosen.” – 2 Peter 1:10, NLT
