Who Knows?

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2025/01/27

What is it that keeps people from knowing God? As created beings bearing the divine imprint, we are made for a relationship with God—yet because of our sin, we choose to live without reference to Him, finding our identity and security in other things. In this message on John 17, Alistair Begg examines the prayerful words of Jesus in verse 25 and their encouragement for the believer. Although the world does not know the Father, Jesus does, and through Him, we are graciously invited to meet God as

Jesus’ Own Desire

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2025/01/20

What did Jesus desire? What was it that motivated His life, ministry, and sacrifice while on earth? We get a window into the answer in John 17:24, where Jesus explicitly prays for those whom the Father has given Him. In this selfless, specific request to God, ultimately sourced in the love of the Father for the Son, we see that Christ longs for us to be with Him and to see His glory—a glory that will give us light and life for all of eternity.

Standing Firm in the Grace of God

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2025/01/10

As he drew his first epistle to a close, the apostle Peter turned his focus to the elders of the churches to which he wrote, urging them to lead their people with godliness. Elders and pastors are shepherds over God's flock, Alistair Begg reminds us—ones who should lead by example, cultivating humility, entrusting God with their anxieties, preparing to face adversity, and resting in the security of God's grace.

Stewards of God’s Varied Grace

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2025/01/09

In the fourth chapter of his first epistle, in light of all that he'd written up to that point, Peter continued to unpack how the reality of Christ's sacrifice should shape the day-to-day of the Christian life. Living under the shadow of the cross, Alistair Begg explains, means thinking properly, living differently, and being prepared to face abuse, even as we keep our eyes fixed on the end and endure the path of suffering laid before us.

Honorable Conduct

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2025/01/07

The believers of Peter's day, transformed by God's grace, faced inevitable accusations from the world around them. In response, Peter urged them to defend themselves not by arguing for their position but by living honorable lives. Alistair Begg walks us through the apostle's teaching on Christian conduct in the realms of submission to civil government, servants' duty to their masters, and marriage, helping us to see that the strongest missionary force in the world is not a method or a movement but a

Living Stone, Holy People

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2025/01/06

Having urged the readers of his first letter to "love one another earnestly from a pure heart," Peter went on to explain what such brotherly love would entail. Alistair Begg unpacks the apostle's instructions, which clarify that fellowship demands action. In their new life together, Christians must be prepared to feed themselves on God's Word, establish themselves on the foundation of union with Christ, and stand as witnesses to God's goodness and glory before a watching world.

How Great a Salvation!

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2025/01/04

The initial readers of Peter's first epistle were an eclectic group, comprised of both Jews and gentiles dispersed throughout a broad geographical region and facing various trials and persecutions. Even so, they were unified by the shared reality of having been "born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead." Alistair Begg examines the opening verses of 1 Peter, which describe this great salvation and the hope it offers to all who are in Christ.

Wonders of His Love

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/12/30

Jesus was born to die to save sinners. The baby in the manger is the creator of the universe and the same one who, within hours of His death, prayed for His disciples. He displayed His glory through perfect obedience to the Father—which culminated in His sacrificial death. Examining John 17:22–23, Alistair Begg considers the glory given to Christ. This same glory is extended to believers so that we may reflect in our words and actions a supernatural unity grounded in the Gospel and share in His

The Second Advent

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/12/30

We are living today between two advents: We look back on the first advent, the incarnation of Christ who came in humility to seek and save the lost; and we look forward to the second advent, when, in fulfillment of God's promises, Jesus will return in glorious triumph and majesty to execute judgment and reign forever over all. Looking to Jesus' words in Mark 13, Alistair Begg considers what Scripture reveals about Christ's return and how we are to trust God's promises and prepare for that day.

The Gift of God

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/12/24

Christmas is a popular time of year for gift giving. Sometimes our efforts to find the ideal gift hit the mark; other times, they fall woefully short of expectations. In this Christmas Eve service, Alistair Begg reflects on how Jesus is the only truly perfect gift. He alone fulfills the deepest longings of the human heart for genuine happiness, abiding peace, and everlasting love. But like any present, salvation in Christ can only be enjoyed by those who actually accept the gift.

All One in Jesus

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/12/15

All who trust in Jesus are united in Him with fellow believers. Looking to Jesus' High Priestly Prayer, Alistair Begg explores the foundation and distinctiveness of Christian unity. When the Holy Spirit applies the Gospel's truth to our hearts, the resulting unity is supernatural in origin, doctrinal in substance, evangelical in expression, and pastoral in focus. Believers worldwide are called to come together rather than isolate, so that the good news of the Gospel will be attractively showcased

What Angels Wish They Knew

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/12/15

When the angels announced the birth of Jesus, although they were observers and participants, they could not know firsthand the joy salvation brings. In the incarnation, God the Father did something that was truly unique and unmistakable: He sent His Son, Jesus, to save from their sin all those who would trust in Him. At the center of the Christmas story is not a cradle but a cross—the emblem of the extent to which God went to show His love for us.

“And for Their Sake…”

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/12/08

"Jesus loves me, this I know." This simple refrain from a children's song puts words to a life-altering biblical truth. In this message rooted in John 17:19, Alistair Begg emphasizes the great love Jesus shows to His own—a love demonstrated through His consecration of Himself for suffering on the cross. That agonizing sacrifice, which Jesus willingly entered into, provides justification and, ultimately, sanctification for believers.

“Into the World”

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/12/08

Before His earthly mission came to an end, Jesus prayed for the disciples as they were being commissioned to serve the Lord. Focusing on John 17:18, Alistair Begg considers what God the Father has done, what Jesus has done, and where believers fit into God's eternal plan. Because God loves the world, He sent Jesus to redeem those who are perishing. In turn, Jesus calls the redeemed—empowered by the Holy Spirit—to proclaim the wondrous Gospel throughout the nations.

“Sanctify Them”

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/12/02

In His High Priestly Prayer, Jesus asked God the Father to sanctify His disciples in the truth of His word. In this study of John 17:17, Alistair Begg takes a look at how the doctrine of sanctification is defined biblically, displayed progressively, and discovered submissively. When we trust Christ as Lord and Savior, we're considered holy, set apart by and for God. Through the lifelong process of sanctification, God's Spirit works through God's Word to make believers like Jesus.

Historical Theology

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/11/03

Over five hundred years ago, Christianity was buried under layers of superstition, immorality, and biblical illiteracy—yet questions about life and death, knowledge and authority, and how sinful men and women could be made right with God remained. In this Reformation Day message, Alistair Begg recounts how the church of medieval Europe came to rediscover the Gospel message found in Jesus' life and death. Through Martin Luther and others, the true significance and sufficiency of Christ's death was

The Evil One

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/10/27

Jesus asked God the Father to keep believers from the Evil One while they remain in the world. Focusing on verse 15 of Christ's High Priestly Prayer, Alistair Begg investigates the identity and strategy of the devil, Jesus' victory over evil, and the Gospel-grounded security and resulting activity of the Lord's followers. We're engaged in a spiritual battle—and although Satan is crafty and unrelenting, Jesus has ultimately dealt with the sin and fears of all who are united in Him.

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/10/24

As he drew his first letter to a close, Peter focused in on the reality of suffering that his recipients would endure and the need for leaders to shepherd their flocks well. Like every caring pastor, Peter realized that the people to whom he was writing needed to know God and live in the light of His truth. In this message, Alistair Begg examines Peter's instructions to embrace humility, receive God's exaltation, and rest in God's promise to restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish His own.

“If the World Hates You…”

Truth For Life - Alistair Begg ·

2024/10/20

Hearing and believing Christ's words radically changed His disciples—which provoked the surrounding culture's hostility. Alistair Begg explains that the unbelieving world hates biblical truth and Christlike living because they expose humanity's lostness, immorality, and need of a Savior. Ultimately, Christian conviction ignites a life of conflict, because the same grace that reconciles us to God antagonizes us to the Evil One. Yet Jesus prayed not for God to remove believers from the world but to
