Description

Are we called to pray to Mary, the Mother of Jesus? and to call upon Saints to pray for our dearly departed that they may gain entry to heaven?

When so many voices sound “Christian,” how do you tell truth from deception—and stand firm?

In this Part 1 message from 2 Thessalonians 2:13 –17 we unpack how believers—loved, chosen, and sanctified by the Spirit—can hold fast to the apostolic Gospel in a culture buzzing with spiritual counterfeits.

Paul’s charge to “stand firm and hold to the traditions” calls us back to Scripture, not speculation.

In Part 1, Pastor Andrew speaks to a real-world example of false teaching: the claim that Mary was sinless and assumed bodily into heaven—and why this contradicts the Bible’s clear witness that only Christ is sinless and the sole Mediator (Rom 3:23 ; 2 Cor 5:21 ; 1 Jn 3:5; 1 Tim 2:5; Heb 7:24 –25).
Lift your eyes to Jesus’ finished work and live with courage, clarity, and compassion in confusing times.


Key Scriptures: 2 Thess 2:13 –17; Rev 22:11 –16; Eph 2:8–9; 1 Cor 15:1–4; Rom 3:23 ; 1 Tim 2:5; Rom 8:34 ; Heb 7:24 –25; Heb 9:11 –27; Matt 7:15 ; Acts 20:29 .
