Pastor Shawn Crisman - "Biblical Forgiveness?" - Matthew 18:15-35

Pastor Shawn Crisman preached this sermon series "Finish Strong - A Study of Second Timothy" on August 15, 2021 at Kento-Boo Baptist Church. 
 
As Paul lived out his final days in a Roman prison, in the dungeon of a cell, hands and feet shackled, awaiting execution, he left some last minute instructions for a close friend, a young pastor named Timothy. In this letter, Paul demonstrates what it means to go the distance in life, how to run the race until the very last step. This series teaches us how to follow Paul's example of faithful perseverance, so that we, too, can ultimately say, "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." 
 
I. Avoid the wrong people. 
 - 2 Timothy 3:1-5 
 - 2 Timothy 3:5 
 - Matthew 23:27-28 
 - 1 Corinthians 15:33 
 
II. Latch on to the right people. 
 - 2 Timothy 3:10-11 
 
III. Stay close to the Scriptures. 
 - James 1:22 
 - 2 Timothy 3:16-17
