The Church Age is an absolutely great time to be alive! That’s now, the period between Jesus Christ’s first coming and the future Rapture. Believers in this time period, who are called Christians, have the Holy Spirit indwelling them, will never be forsaken by God, and will be the first to get their glorified bodies, just to name a few benefits! Another superb blessing is having the full Bible, which teaches us vital truths about the end times of humanity. We study a little bit of that this morning.

1. Encouraging Others with Uplifting Edification.
2. Praising the Lord with Personal Exaltation.
