November 12, 2017 – How To Be A Good Soldier

November 12, 2017

Today Pastor Ben Kingston brings us a message from 2 Timothy 2:1-5 about how to be a good soldier for the army of the Lord.

2 Timothy 2:1-5

Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

  1. A good soldier knows his objective
    1. Love the Lord and enjoy his grace
    2. Share the gospel
    3. The great commission, discipleship.
  2. A good soldier prepares to meet his objective
    1. Suffers hardship
    2. Learns how to handle sin
    3. Follows the steps to success
