Eight characters of blessed people,

Eight characters of blessed people, which represent to us the principal graces of a Christian.

1. The poor in spirit are happy. These bring their minds to their condition, when it is a low condition. They are humble and lowly in their own eyes. They see their want, bewail their guilt, and thirst after a Redeemer. The kingdom of grace is of such; the kingdom of…

Being Healed from the wounds of the past.

It's time to leave the things of the past there, and not bring them with you any more in your life. Many of us are being haunted by the shame of our youth, and our suffering terribly by the wound of the past. We are letting these wounds that have hurt us be carried with us in our relationships with Jesus and relationship with people and even ourselves. We are carry evil tiddings in our heart. ANd all it is doing is causing our soul to be bowed down. You know a major wound that some of us…

God's Wise Mercy

God’s Wise Mercy

We preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to the Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. (1 Corinthians …

Scandalous from the start

Scandalous from the start. Matthew 1.1-17 podcast:

Of all the ways to begin his gospel, why in the world would Matthew start with begats and begots in 17 verses of mostly unfamiliar names that are difficult to pronounce? Why start the gospel – the good news of Jesus Christ with a genealogy? Simply, the bloodline of Jesus Christ was keenly important to establish him as the long-awaited Messiah. (Realize that Messiah and Christ are the same word—Messiah in Hebrew;… Continue

Have you begun an exciting, new journey,

from stepping in a new direction of faith?

For you’ve been given ample opportunities…

Have you figured out by logic and reason,

how to enjoy spiritual fruits of a new season?

and feed your spirit with His foundational…

Poem: Release Yourself

Release yourself from haughty thoughts,

since God’s foolishness is wiser than you;

His wisdom and knowledge transcends time,

unlike the limitations of the Human view.

Release yourself from worries and concerns,

for He has promised to meet your every need;

reap benefits from the gifting that He placed

within your implantation of spiritual seed.

Release yourself now from your earthly cares;

honor Him with your time, tithes and talent!

Test…

Poem: Called to Worship (IX)

Know that your brokenness can be healed

and that your wholeness can be restored.

Reaffirm your divine covenant today,

by completely trusting upon the Lord!

Seek a vital relationship with God now;

be thankful for His daily grace and mercy.

Realize and understand His intentions for you;

Open your eyes and observe what He sees…

regarding His plans, already laid out;

through prayer, request spiritual guidance.

Recognize your heavenly position…

Amid The Dazzling Confusion

The religious atmosphere of the present time is much changed from what it was in my younger days; and I may be allowed to note the difference. The theological crisis through which we are passing is a peculiar one, such as the men of fifty years ago would have thought very unlikely; and I wish to mark some of its more important characteristics.…

this Changes Everything

This Changes Everything. Titus 2.11, 1-10

Why the Gospel? We are on the brink of the Gospel of Matthew--why read the Gospel (which means Good News) of Jesus coming into the world? -> What difference does it make—or does it?

One of the strongest cases for Christianity is the radical life-changing power it wields. Have you ever known anyone who was ‘hard after it’ in terms of worldly passions and pursuits, who was radically changed by the power of the… Continue

THE REFINERS FIRE

Ten thousand enemies cannot stop a Christian, cannot even slow him down, if he meets them in a attitude of complete trust in God. They will become to him like the atmosphere that resists the airplane, but which because the plane's designer knew how to take advantage of that resistance, actually lifts the plane aloft and holds it there for a journey of 2,000 miles. What would have been an enemy to the plane becomes a helpful servant to…
