Alex Kremer 9-28-25 | Be Not Ashamed: Standing Bold for Christ in a World That Mocks

Are you afraid to speak up about your faith because of what others might think? The world wants to shame you into silence, calling biblical truth hateful, bigoted, and foolish. But Paul's final words to Timothy reveal a different path—one where suffering for the gospel becomes a blessing, not a burden. This message from 2 Timothy 1:8-12 exposes the world's tactics to silence Christians while showing why the "scandal" of a crucified Savior is actually our greatest confidence. You'll discover why salvation by grace alone threatens the world's pride, how God's sovereign purpose spans from eternity past to eternity future, and what it means to truly know Christ rather than just know about Him. If you've ever felt embarrassed by Scripture's "problem verses" or wondered how to stand firm when culture demands compromise, this sermon will equip you with unshakeable confidence in the gospel that Paul willingly died proclaiming.
