Faith in Christ Alone

7 But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. 8 Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ 9 and be found in Him, not

We Are No Longer Slaves to Sin

Since we have been united with him in his death, we will also be raised to life as he was. 6 We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin. 7 For when we died with Christ we were set

Friends of God

When we were utterly helpless, Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners. 7 Now, most people would not be willing to die for an upright person, though someone might perhaps be willing to die for a person who is especially good. 8 But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to

No Other Way

Proverbs 30:4-6 KJV Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is His name, and what is His son’s name, if thou canst tell? 5 Every word of God is

Never Forget

Psalm 34:8 NKJV Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! God is so good and He loves us so much! Remember reading in the Bible book of John, the story of our Lord’s crucifixion? The story of the pain and agonizing suffering and the blood

The Enormous Love of Christ

The thought of my sins nailing Him there is very sobering. That is why I want to do the right things for the right reasons. I want His perfect will to be done in my life.

Hope for Humanity

Our hope comes from God and our hope is in God. Jeremiah 29:11 NASB For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. Lamentations 3:24 NASB “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,“Therefore I have hope in Him.” 1 John 3:3 NKJV And everyone

A Matter of the Heart

There’s going to be a great threshing (where good and evil are separated) and who will be able to stand? God knows our hearts (1 Samuel 16:7). Matthew 3:12 NASB His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat into the barn, but
