There are many ways to get lured away from the truth of the gospel.  You can get caught up in unkindness.  You can look for the easy way out.  You can get more wrapped up in winning arguments than in loving neighbors.  That’s why Paul wrote to Timothy:  “Continue—that is, REMAIN--in what you have learned and firmly believed.”  Today, we are here so that we don’t get distracted by a glitzier gospel, but REMAIN in the hard but blessed path of Jesus Christ.
