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…

“Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to

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”.

Be courageous. Apostle Paul was being taken by ship to Rome to make his appeal to Caesar. On the way, a great storm, like a hurricane, came and threatened to destroy the ship and all of the people on it. Take a look at what Paul told the people on

Surprise! God is speaking to me about faith this morning. God does what God is. God is love. God cannot hate you. God is truth. God cannot lie to you. God is good. God cannot do evil to you or tempt you with evil. God is faithful to Himself and

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…

When the prophet Isaiah rebuked Israel in chapter 59, he said that no one is calling for justice or pleading for truth. “He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.” (Psalm 33:5, NKJV) Let us pray that the wicked will be removed

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

Have you ever been desperate? In the sense that you were full of despair? Stressed and Depressed? King David, the author of many psalms of praise, faced times of desperation. Times of being hunted, despised, rejected and alone. He faced these times by turning to God and worshipping and giving

There is a three letter word in The New Testament of The Holy Bible that has huge implications. That word is “LET”. “LET” means to permit or deny, to allow or hinder. “LET” is a lockable gate on a hinge that swings both ways. There is a gatekeeper who keeps

As I have previously stated, part of my core message is the good news that God, as “Our Father”, is more interested in partnering with us than doing for us. He is raising fully mature sons and daughters in the image of Christ Jesus and Himself. My focus tends to

We are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. This righteousness is a gift from God that is received by faith in God through Jesus Christ. We have been sanctified in the inner man by The God of Peace. He is sanctifying us continually by His word. He who sanctifies
