Begone, unbelief,My Saviour is near,And for my reliefWill surely appear;By prayer let me wrestle,And he will perform;With Christ in the vessel,I smile at the storm.

Alistair Begg recently sat down with Simon Calvert from the Christian Institute to discuss how believers, and especially church leaders, should respond to challenges to biblical teaching in the form of broadening so-called “conversion therapy” bans. In this interview, he focuses particularly on the role of pastors in preparing their congregations for faithful, Christlike living in the real world.

Have you ever doubted God’s promises? Perhaps you’ve experienced suffering or hardship and wondered, “If God is powerful and loves me, why is He allowing this to happen?” Or maybe you question His commitment to truly forgive you for your sins. You may struggle with nagging questions like “Are my sins really forgiven?” or “If I’m really saved, why do I keep sinning?”

“We will never grasp the depth of it-the magnitude of the love that brought Him to that cross-and so we joyfully confess with Paul that on the cross, ‘the Son of God loved me and gave himself for me.’” —Alistair Begg

From a literary perspective, one of the unique aspects of the New Testament is its frank portrayal of the phenomenal failures of many of its authors and main subjects. This is nowhere more apparent than in the lives of the twelve disciples, and one of the clearest examples is in Peter’s denials of Jesus.

The Gospel story doesn’t end with a distressed Christ. It doesn’t end with a crucified Christ. Nor does it even end with a resurrected Christ. It ends with an ascended Christ, who is Lord and King, reigning on high from heaven, awaiting the appointed time for His return.
