“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Romans 8:1 I’ve been listening to a sermon series by Derek W.H. Thomas entitled “Romans 8” published through Ligonier Ministries. It breaks down this wonderful chapter into twelve sermons that, quite frankly, I find fascinating. Many, including Thomas, say that Romans 8 … Continue reading 2019-09-09 Talk Is Cheap.
2019-09-05 A Modern Day Exodus
“and I have come down to deliver them out of the hands of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and broad land, a land flowing with milk and honey.” Exodus 3:8a We’ve started a bible plan at church, so now I’m in two! Just seven months ago … Continue reading 2019-09-05 A Modern Day Exodus
2019-09-03 What A Gift!
“For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor. No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly.” Psalm 84:11 This verse was included in yesterday’s discussion on answered prayer, but I think it deserves more time. This, right here, my friends, is another gigantic promise of … Continue reading 2019-09-03 What A Gift!

2019-08-28 Why Me?
“And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” Acts 9:5a On Monday, I challenged you to think about the reason why God picked Abraham for such an honor. The same with God’s “Chosen People” in the Israelites. The same with you and me, as born-again believers. Come to think about it, the same with Paul or … Continue reading 2019-08-28 Why Me?
2019-08-27 Who’s Telling The Truth?
“So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.” Galatians 3:9 I find it interesting to note how little we speak of Abraham in our churches. Oh, sure, we cover some of the stories from time to time, but not like Paul does or the writer of Hebrews … Continue reading 2019-08-27 Who’s Telling The Truth?
