 Believers often forget that they are part of a real family, though it is far different from the one into which they were physically born. It is a family that has “obtained like precious faith.” This precious faith is centered in Christ Jesus. Pastor Sexton traces Peter’s theme throughout his second letter, showing us the distinctive marks of this family of faith.

The Teacher’s Guide is a three-ring notebook containing valuable information to assist the teacher in the preparation and presentation of the Bible lesson. These notes are identical in format to the Study Guide. The page numbers on the “Teacher’s Notes” correspond to the page numbers in the Study Guide. Also included are class teaching notes and lesson aims which may be removed from the Teacher’s Guide and placed in the teacher’s Bible to assist in teaching the lesson.

Notable Quotes of Charles H. Spurgeon

Obedience

“We are not saved by obedience, for obedience is the result of salvation! We are saved by faith, because faith leads us to obey! Faith is weakness clinging to strength and becoming strong through so doing.”—1891, Sermon #2209

“Have I a right to be desiring to go to Heaven if I can do any good to you here? Is it not more of a Heaven to be outside of Heaven than inside if you can be doing more for God outside than in?”—1892, Sermon #2262

“A whole-hearted consecration, a child-like confidence, a deep-toned submission—these will make us ready for suffering, whatever it may be.”—1892, Sermon #2285

“Often have I said to myself, as I have come along to this place, ‘I shall have a picked congregation.’ The Lord has an election of Grace and He has also an election of hearers!”—1894, Sermon #2348

“Trust deeds and confessions of faith are useful in their way, even as laws are useful to society, but as laws cannot secure obedience to themselves, so articles of belief cannot create faith, or secure honesty. And to men without conscience, they are not worth the paper they are written upon.”—1891, Sermon #2182
