Hi, this is John.
Today on Theocast, Justin and I want to answer this question.
Now that we're saved, and the gospel is amazing, what should we do?
What's the point of our obedience?
Why should we be holy?
We know that we're supposed to, but what is the motivation behind it?
Well, we actually have some hope and exciting joy for you because your holiness has a whole lot more to do than you just not doing what's wrong.
There's a purpose behind it, and it's an eternal purpose, and one I think that's going to bring you hope and joy.
Stay tuned.
Before we jump into the podcast, we want to tell you about a really important announcement.
We're doing a one-day conference on suffering and the return of Christ.
It's going to be January 18th, 2024, in Escondido, California.
And we're going to be doing it with Abounding Race Radio with the host Chris Gordon.
And we're going to be hosting it at his church, which is Escondido United Reformed Church.
We're going to be having four sessions.
It's going to start in the morning, Thursday morning at 10 a.m., and we're going to go all the way through the evening.
And we're going to have a special guest with us that evening, Dr.
Bob Godfrey, who's going to be joining us in a panel as we discuss the importance of suffering and eschatology and why our eschatology matters.
Please go and register.
It's going to be January 18th in Escondido, California, and we look forward to seeing you there.
