The message of John 3:16–17 and 1 Corinthians 1:18–24 is one and the same: the love of God and the wisdom of God are revealed supremely in the cross of Christ. The world may see weakness and folly, but to those whom God has called, the crucified Son is salvation, righteousness, and life. Let us therefore hold fast to this gospel, unashamed of Christ crucified. For in Him we behold the very power and wisdom of God.
Blameless
“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful; He will surely do it.” -1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 I look honestly into the mirror and see a man who … Continue reading Blameless
Blessed are the Meek
The meek shall inherit the earth. They are welcomed into the Kingdom of God and enjoy its blessings even now. The meek are not impatient or quarrelsome, nor are they always entangled in contentions, disputes, debates, or strife. Biblical meekness involves an attitude of humility, gentleness, and a steadfast reliance upon God—even in the midst of trials and tribulations.
Christ: Our Reconciliation
Just as Paul pleaded for Onesimus to be received as a brother, so too does the Gospel declare that sinners are welcomed by God through the finished work of Jesus Christ. This passage beautifully reminds us that reconciliation is not found in our efforts but in Christ alone.
Blessed Are They Who Mourn
We may be afflicted in every way. But we are not crushed. We may be perplexed, but not driven to despair. All day long we may be persecuted. But we are not forsaken. Still others may be struck down. But we are not destroyed. Mourning may last through the night, but joy comes in the morning. The only hope and eternal comfort in this world for those who rejoice or for those who mourn is Christ!
The Poor in Spirit
So many in religion think themselves "rich, increased with goods and in need of nothing!" Believing all is well between them and God, they suppose their acceptance is based on personal religious goodness. They assume everything to be fine, knowing not they are wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked.
Faith: God’s Gift of Seeing Christ
Brothers and sisters, may your faith be fixed not on the seen but on the unseen glory of Christ. Let us remember: the same Word that created the world has now recreated our hearts in Christ. And by faith, we walk—not by sight.
Raised With Christ
https://youtu.be/Q8VCsFtmuTE?si=upc1IyZjACgekCmU Raised with Christ: Living the New Life In Colossians 3:1–11, the Apostle Paul reminds believers that the Christian life is grounded not in striving for acceptance with God but in resting in what Christ has already accomplished. Because we have died with Christ and have been raised with Him, we are called to live … Continue reading Raised With Christ
Who is My Neighbor? Christ, Compassion, and the Law
Let us hear the parable rightly: not as a ladder to climb, but a window into the heart of God. Jesus doesn’t just tell us to love—He loved us first (1 John 4:10). And having received such mercy, we are now free to show mercy to others—not to earn life, but because we have life in Him.
The Great Multitude: A Vision of Hope and Victory
Apostle John sees a vast multitude from every nation, clothed in white robes, standing before the throne of God and the Lamb. Their presence is not based on their own merit, but on the finished work of Christ—His sacrifice, redemption, and victory.
