One day every person will stand before God the Father. Those whose names are not written in the Lamb’s Book of Life will have no opportunity to change their hearts at that point; their eternity is sealed. For those who are recorded in His Book, our eternity is also sealed.…

Christ’s death on the cross and His resurrection three days later opened the door to salvation for us. Before He came, we were subject to a law we couldn’t possibly fulfill. Where was the hope? The Hope is Jesus! His sacrifice made it possible for us to stand pure and…

HYMN DAY! This might be unfamiliar to you. “We are God’s People” was written by Bryan Jeffrey Leech, and is based on 1 Peter 2:9, “You are a chosen people…a people belonging to the Lord.” These words are meaningful and would make a good prayer. We are God’s people, the…

We do not live in a void. Every single one of us leaves an imprint on the world. Some imprints are “deeper” than others, but none of us lives without creating a testimony. I’m sure we know people who have left this life for eternity and we carry memories of…

There are many absolutes in the Bible. Such as Jesus is the Son of God, sent to earth to be the sin sacrifice for mankind; we cannot have a relationship with God the Father unless we have received Christ the Son; we are commanded to love our neighbor as ourself.…

HYMN DAY! This hymn written by P.P. Bliss was originally titled “The Whole World Was Lost in the Darkness of Sin.” It was changed to “The Light of the World is Jesus.” I like the new title better. And I really like the message here. Let’s share the Light! 1.…

In verse 12, Paul builds on the concept of living in this moment and making the most of the time we have. I love to watch sunrises and sunsets, and no matter how many times I’ve sat outside and watched the sun descend or the sun slide above the rim…

Paul wrote a great deal in chapters 1-13 of Romans about what it means to live as a Christian as we walk this earth. If you look back at the past several weeks, we see quite a few commands. Some seem pretty hard to follow! But he wanted us to…
