Through Christ Jesus, God replaced a covenant that required you to keep laws in order to receive promises with a covenant that requires you to believe in the one who promised, and the promise itself, in order to receive it. I can’t rightfully say, “I believe in God.”, without

When someone gives you a promise, they are giving you a guarantee of a future change to your current circumstance. Each promise from God is a spiritual truth which contradicts natural fact. God’s promises are guarantees from heaven that your circumstances will change…

We understand through The Word, especially 1 Thessalonians 5:23, that there are three components of a human - spirit, soul and body. The Word identifies each part and we see how each functions, yet the three are one. A whole person is a spirit being, with a soul living,

Because of faith in Christ Jesus, we are the people of God. This is not the result of any human lineage, race or earthly heritage. Being the children of God has powerful benefits. The first benefit is that God is our Father.

Do you think of yourself as spiritually mature? How does one know if he is spiritually mature? What does that even mean? Should I stop attending church if I am spiritually mature? Do I need a Christian leader, pastor or teacher to know me and speak into my life anymore?

Apostle Paul admonishes the disciples of Christ to “stand fast” or to “hold fast”. It simply means to remain firmly persuaded about what he taught them and to stand firm in their beliefs and conversation. “Conversation” is your manner of speech and way of living…

What does it mean to be firmly persuaded? “Firmly persuaded” is the definition of the Greek word for faith, pistis.  When a person is firmly persuaded of a truth, they will speak of it. When a person is firmly persuaded of a course of action, they will act.

Spiritual gifts and ministrations are all the result of The LORD Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit working in us. If you ask The Heavenly Father for His Holy Spirit, what will He give you? (See Luke 11:11-13) God The Father will give you His Holy Spirit.

Everything about salvation by grace through faith is beautiful, wonderful and awe inspiring. Probably, one of the most exciting things about faith in Christ Jesus is the promise of adoption as children of God. In this promise, we see God’s original intent for humanity…

Dear believers in Christ Jesus, It is important to let Holy Spirit use God’s Word to teach us. (Duh!?!? Right?!) Well, we really must learn to honor God’s Word above opinions and feelings. Let’s look at salvation “by grace through faith”.

What is the only requirement to receive a gift from God? Faith. Faith itself is a gift from God and must be received by faith. That sounds “funny”. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. God has given to each the measure of faith…

One major difference between the old and new covenant is the priesthood. Jesus became the highest priest of the new covenant. And wonder of wonders, He made all who believe in Him into priests of His new covenant. There is no longer just one tribe who serves, one family to
