Christ’s Church at Virginia Tech campus ministry

is a non-denominational Christian community of students who:

--believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God

--believe the Bible is the infallible Word of the one and only true God, and therefore embrace it as our first & final authority for faith & practice as it contains all the truth needed for salvation and living in Christ. (2 Timothy 3:16, Hebrews 4:12)

--strive to put our faith in action, to keep growing in our knowledge and love for God, and to transform our world by living as Jesus lived. (James 2:14-26, Colossians 1:9-12, Romans 12:1-2)

"The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever." -- Isaiah 40:8

A little Straight Talk

"Whoever says 'I know him' but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him, but whoever keeps his word, in him truly the love of God is perfected. By this we may know that we are in him." -- 1 John 2:4-5

Kind of challenging, isn't it? But sometimes we just need someone to love us enough to tell us the truth, straight up and without mincing words, and God does that. God does love us enough to tell us the truth. And he especially does that through the apostle John who wrote 1 John. The whole letter of 1 John is full of very straight talk. Not always confrontational, but always very straight forward. That's one of the reasons I think so many people love this book of the Bible so much.

Our "Men of God" Bible study continues our study of 1 John tonight, exploring a passage of scripture which includes the above two verses. We hope you will come join us.

We meet every Monday night at 7:15 at our campus house. For a map and clear directions just look on the top right side of your screen.

We'd love to have you join us whether this would be your 1st or 50th time, or anything in between.

Hope to see you there.
