Jeremiah 6.16 records, this is what the Lord says: “Stand at the crossroads and
look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls. But you said, ‘We will not walk in it. (more…)
Isaiah 33.6 promises, He will be the sure foundation for your times, a rich store of
salvation and wisdom and knowledge; the fear of the Lord is the key to this treasure.
We need the foundation of the Lord in these times. His ways are the good ways that make it so that men can live with one another in joy, peace and prosperity. His commands are the means by which men can thrive together for they care nothing for color or gender but require all men to love one another as they love themselves. (more…)
John 2.17 records, His disciples remembered that it is written: Zeal for Your
house will consume Me.
What should it look like today for the Christian to have zeal for God’s house that it might consume them? For many Christians, there is little zeal for the Church. Yet the Bible describes the Church as the bride of Christ, His beloved people, the body over which He is the head, the means by which He accomplishes His will on earth as it is in heaven. (more…)
2 Peter 1.3-4 describes, His divine power has given us everything we need for a
godly life through our knowledge of Him Who called us by His own glory and goodness. Through these He has given us His very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. (more…)
Hebrews 10.14,36 share, by one sacrifice He has made perfect forever those
who are being made holy…..You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised.
The declaration of God over the people of God is that they are perfect. Declared perfect because of the perfect life lived by God in Jesus now appropriated to us who are imperfect and in no way able to live perfect lives. The perfect life required by God has been ‘lived’ by those of us who believe in God through Jesus the Savior Who lived a perfect life but died in judgement from God for our imperfect lives. (more…)
2 Timothy 3.2-5 describes, people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money,
boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
Colossians 3.10 commands, put on the new self, which is being renewed in
knowledge in the image of its Creator.
God the Father has the objective of having all people from all time living with Him forever. This will not be the case but that is because men refuse God rather than because God refuses men. Those who love God, those who turn from rebellion and turn toward obedience, are the children of God. (more…)
Ephesians 4.22-24 explains, you were taught, with regard to your former way of
life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. (more…)
Galatians 5.7 observes, you were running a good race. Who cut in on you to keep
you from obeying the truth?
The Christian life is a journey to a destination where the journey continues forever and ever. Like living with a family, it is daily, forever we hope, changing yet always the same. It is good but sometimes it is hard. It brings us our greatest joy but also can bring us our greatest sorrow.
