About this episode

Pastor Louis Kotzé discusses the urgency of living an active faith based on the teachings of the Second Letter of Peter.

The Second Letter of Peter gives us access to some of the apostle Peter’s final words – written with urgency, clarity, and deep concern for the future of the Church. In a world that is temporary and feels uncertain, Peter calls believers to anchor their lives in what is eternal. In this message, Pastor Louis zooms in on 2 Peter 1, reminding us that we have everything we need in Jesus to live godly lives. For this reason, we are urged to make every effort to grow in faith, character, and love, and to remain firmly grounded in truth. In the face of cultural drift and misleading voices, passivity is not an option. This is a call to intentional, active faith: to hold fast to God’s eternal promises, to live out your calling, and to stay rooted in truth in a world that is temporary and constantly shifting. 🔔 Subscribe & Share
