  1. Pastor Josh here.

  2. I would like to give you a preview of our Sunday morning service

  3. on February 9th at Middletown Baptist Church.

  4. We're going to continue on in our study in Second Corinthians,

  5. and we're going to be looking at how we can continue on in the

  6. ambassadorship of being a disciple for Christ.

  7. Now, being an ambassador means that we represent the Lord in what

  8. we say and what we do.

  9. And we're going to look at Second Corinthians, chapter 10, starting

    2 Corinthians 10 chapter mention

  10. in verse 7, and see what it means to be a messenger of the Gospel.

  11. And we're going to look at a sermon called the Marks of a Messenger.

  12. And in Second Corinthians, Paul is essentially defending himself

  13. against folks that are calling him a false teacher.

  14. And really, the, the irony of the whole situation is, is that the

  15. false teachers are the ones calling Paul a false teacher.

  16. And so Paul is speaking to the church there in Corinth, and he's

  17. basically explaining to them how to identify an authentic messenger

  18. or minister of the Gospel.

  19. And so we as Christians need to be able to discern the true message

  20. and true messengers of of the gospel, but also in turn be true

  21. messengers of the gospel.

  22. If we're not careful, we can be deceived by false teachings and

  23. false teachers.

  24. And if we are not careful, we can maybe intentionally or unintentionally

  25. become people that are not representing the truth of the gospel

  26. in our lives.

  27. And so we're going to look at that.

  28. The Marks of a Messenger.

  29. We encourage you to be out on Sunday morning at 10:30 here at Middletown

  30. Baptist Church.
