These Bible reading plans from TCC seek to help you develop good Bible reading habits. 

1. The self-explanatory alternatives allow you to choose a plan that is right for you.

2. Each schedule varies the length of the assignments to make it easy to catch up if you fall behind.  Weekly rather than daily readings eliminate the sense of pressure if you miss a day. 

3. The months are left blank to give flexibility for your start date.  The blanks next to the assignments allow you to record your completion date and thus keep track of your progress.  

God’s Word is always fruitful in the lives of those who devote themselves to it (Isaiah 55:8-11).  Our elders commend the Word of God to you and trust God will bless you as you read His Word.

Grace and peace,

1. That the early church fathers are reliable teachers due to their proximity to the apostles.

2. That the early church worshipped like the Catholic Church does today.

3. That there is an unbroken and undisputed line of succession from the apostles to the Pope today.

4. That church unity means there should be one and only one external religious organization ruling over professing Christians throughout the world.

5. That a parallel line of oral tradition was handed down from the apostles with equal authority to the written Word of God.

6. That the early church always recognized a supreme pontiff seated in Rome.

7. That Peter was the first Pope.

8. That Catholic apologists are truthful.

9. That individual Catholics can speak on behalf of the church when they contradict formal church doctrine.

Friends, for a more systematic refutation of Roman Catholicism, please see my series “The Bible and Roman Catholicism” (links to come in the comments). I meticulously cite official Catholic documents on matters such as the mass, tradition, the Pope, Mary, purgatory, and salvation, then refute it all over the course of about ten messages.

I need to put it all in a book. I don’t know if the Lord will grant me the time and grace to do so. But the content is out there in audio and video format.

And to those who have accused me of misrepresentation and disputed this material in the past: I stand 100% behind every point and assertion I made when I taught this material nearly 10 years ago, so help me God.

“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places”
(Ephesians 6:12).

I know many of you rejoice with them as well.

But the open affirmation is all the more reason for yokels like you and me to pray in private all the more for these courageous men.

Caesar sees all this, too, my brethren.

And Caesar still has his sword.

GCC is doing the right thing and I support them completely.

The Lord is on His throne and we rest in that.

Still.

As I’ve said before: this is not a drill.

It’s deadly serious.

I don’t speak for anyone at GCC.

But if I did, I’d be pleading with you all the more just now:

“Brethren, pray for us” (1 Thessalonians 5:25).

1. The written Word equips you for everything in life

"All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work" (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

2. The incarnate Word equips you for everything in life

"In Him all the fulness of Deity dwells in bodily form, and in Him you have been made complete" (Colossians 2:9-10).

3. Your heavenly Father directs everything in life for your good

"And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28).

4. The provision of your Father is enough for everything in life

"My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness" (2 Corinthians 12:9).

5. You appropriate these resources through daily prayer

"Do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil" (Matthew 6:12).

There's so much more I could say, but those five principles are more than enough to prove this point:

Whether you lack discernment in the spiritual challenges facing the church, or you are agitated at the events at work in the world, or whether your personal life is the cause of heartache this evening, our gracious Savior beckons you to come, lay your heart out to Him plainly, and find your strength in Him.

He's the Good Shepherd who genuinely cares for His sheep.

So go right now to Christ and tell him all that's on your heart.

Confess your sin and your weakness.

Ask Him for grace and to give you understanding in His Word.

As you do that over time, you'll enter into the rest He promises to give to every discouraged heart that seeks Him in spirit and in truth.

You don't need to be strong. He gives strength.

You don't need to be composed. He helps the weak.

"Come to Me, all who are weary and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and 'you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light" (Matthew 11:28-30).

Yes, we have tribulation in this world.

But our Christ has overcome the world.

And He gladly shares the victory with His own.

It's yours for the asking.
