“The evidence of a genuine saving work of God in the past is the continuation of that work into the present and until that final day. We are saved if we hold fast to the word that was preached to us (1 Corinthians 15:2). We can have little or no assurance of salvation if such is not the case.” ~ Paul Washer, “The Gospel’s Power and Message” It was D.L. Moody who once said…
I have posted a version of this video before, but it still gets to me “Isn’t Salivation Enough?” It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all. 16 Yet for this reason I found mercy, so that in me as the foremost, Jesus Christ might demonstrate His perfect patience as an example for those who would believe in…
“You have become the source of your own joy, joy comes from you and your continuous work, my joy comes from the finished work of Jesus Christ.” Believer! is not this the source – the proper source of your joy – that Jesus lived, and suffered, and died for you – that He paid “all that great debt” you owed to law and justice, and washed away the foul stain of your guilt, in…
“God has called you to bear fruit and you will bear fruit, you can bear fruit. He has called you to stand in His presents clean and without spot, Jesus Christ did not shed His blood for you so that the very first thing you see in glory is a scowl on His face because of all your failures.” Jesus Christ said……. “”I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2…
“A wife who is 85% faithful to her husband is not faithful at all. There is no such thing as part-time loyalty to Jesus Christ.” Vance Havner “Those who have a saving interest in Christ must be willing to part with all for Him, leave all to follow Him. Whatever stands in opposition to Christ, or in completion with Him for our love and service, we must cheerfully quit it, though ever so dear…
One of the problems in the West is we have no concept anymore of a father’s authority and therefore we cannot understand the work of God in the heart of a man. God looks at His children and he says “You will be clean”. Ezekiel 36:25 Therefore say to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “It is not for your sake, O house of Israel, that I am about to act,…
Let me ask you. Do you marvel enough? Do you marvel at anything? Is there any wonder? Do you no longer sit down and wonder what’s up there? Do you no longer just sit and think about what’s waiting for you? Your amazed that He created the world? That He created the universe? You ought to be! But there is something even greater, to keep all of these complexities going. Is astounding! He sustains the…
“The most terrifying truth I can speak to you… Are you ready? Here it is, the most terrifying thing I can tell a man, a women, a child is that God is good! The most terrifying news is God is good! God is good! What’s the problem with that? The apostolic proclamation is NOT pray this prayer, the apostolic proclamation is this… That He commands all men to repent and believe the gospel.” Jesus…
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 2 Corinthians 5:17 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts. Romans 13:14 “Mark it down – your progress in holiness will never exceed your relationship with the Word of God.” Nancy Leigh DeMoss Breath in me, O Holy Spirit, that my thoughts…
I couldn’t help thinking about our Romans Study and my post from last Thursday (May it never be, absolutely not!) as the scripture was being read while my pastor was preaching on the fire of the Holy Spirit in Luke 3:15-18. I was reading and following along in Luke, then something took a hold of me, I love when the Lord teaches me at times like these and I instantly connected it to Paul,…
