Sheep Don’t Hang with Goats in the Church (2 Timothy 3:1-5)
Chapter three begins with a challenge about tough times, which are ahead for believers. Surrounding us in the Church will be others who claim to be saved, but are actually make-believers–not saved.

Repent and return to real repentance! We will look at this essential doctrine of repentance. What does it mean? Is it really necessary? What does it look like?
