The Sin Solution
Posted on September 17, 2014 3 Comments
Want to know the solution to sin–to the penalty, power, and presence of sin? It’s not The Ten Commandments. It is not the fear of judgment. It is the revelation of Christ. It is GRACE! And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. For the law was given through Moses, but […]
An Unholy Mixture
Posted on September 10, 2014 4 Comments
Some things do not mix. Oil and water. War and peace. Grace and law. Listen to Paul on the relationship between grace and law. Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace. And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is […]

Are you concerned about the changes taking place around you? Are you afraid of where your life is headed? Well, if you belong to Christ, don’t be. His Word assures us that God changes us “from glory to glory.” “But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, […]

Are you weighed down with problems? Is your load too heavy for you? Then take Peter’s advice. Lay it down; let it go. Stop carrying it. “Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” (1 Peter […]

How would you feel? He works for one hour. You work for eight. You do the same job, but at the end of the day, you both get paid the exact same amount. Would you cry foul? Would you feel robbed? Would you have the right to be angry? Then you can identify with the […]

Identity theft is a huge problem in the U.S. Every year billions of dollars are stolen by people pretending to be someone else. I was a victim myself last year. And because my identity had been tampered with by some unscrupulous person, my credit card was blocked and I was unable to
How To Love

Just a few hours before His death, Jesus called His boys together and said, “A new commandment I give you.” What was it? Not be more committed, be more zealous, or be more dedicated. But “Love one another as I have loved you.” He did not give them ten commandments, or five; just one. Love […]

What should you do if the odds against you accomplishing an important goal are 450 to 1? Would that cause you to faint? Do you have the faith required to proceed? In Judges 7, when Israel cried out to the Lord to deliver them from the Midianites, He gave Gideon the impossible assignment of
Does the Devil Frighten You?

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. (1 Peter 5:8) Notice how Peter described the devil. He used the personal possessive adjective, your. This means Satan is not just “the” enemy; he is “your” personal enemy. And you are his personal target. […]
