You know, you learn some some deep truth from the book of Revelation from end times Bible prophecy in regards to replacement theology These are the things that are really exciting to us But the reality is this is that the vast majority of the Christian life operates on simply the basics Okay, all the other things is basically like the cherry on top, right? The basics is that which is most important and God actually wants us to be reminded of the basics But not only to be reminded but also to a bounder in more and more so he wants us to know the basics, but he wants us to master them and Abound in them more and more, you know a basic of the Christian life is to live a holy life, right?

You prayed in 2021 You went sowing in 2021 Well the goal in 2022 if you don't have any new necessarily goals Then the goal should be to a bounder in more and more to win more souls to Christ And if you read the Bible once this year, amen Well, the goal should be to read it twice This coming year right to a bounder in more and more if you prayed for about you know in the morning for 10 minutes a day Well, maybe your goal should be to pray for 20 minutes a day in 2022 to a bounder in more and more And so, you know It's great to learn these new truths of the Bible and these are exciting things that we see in the Word of God The dark saints and the parables and now which is hard to understand But the reality is this is that it's far more important for us to master the basics into a bounder in More and more and this is actually what we're gonna look at this evening
