Saved as Sinners
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God Romans 3:23 We all have sinned. The Bible does not mince words when it comes to that. It speaks clearly on that fact, especially where Paul is concerned. We come to know that we never truly measure up to God’s standard. Thank God […]

The Blood Still Has Power
Moses then took the blood, sprinkled it on the people and said, “This is the blood of the covenant that the LORD has made with you in accordance with all these words.” – Exodus 24:8 (NIV) This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. – […]

Tested on the Cross
I love Max Lucado’s He Chose Nails. The title says it all. He chose nails. He endured the suffering sacrifice of the cross. He took the beatings and the piercing of thorns upon His head, but He did it all for our salvation. He withstood trial after trial, dragged from the Jews to the Romans, after […]

Nothing But Christ
Paul asserted to the church at Corinth that he came preaching nothing but Christ and him crucified. What we should gather from this is that Christ and His death on the cross is the main focus of what we need to share with people. We gain no glory for ourselves, for we do not seek […]

Claim His Name
As Christians, we have to understand that our new identity is in Christ. We are intially covered with the sacrificial blood of Christ, then the Spirit of the Lord indwells within us. As we continue to grow and become more steeped in the Word, our faith increases. As we increase in faith, we learn to […]

No Mourning Come Morning
For the prophecies ofold to become true, the Savior had to suffer. A simple reading of Isaiah 53 will reveal His extensive sufferings at the hand of the sinful. I marvel at the mighty work that was accomplished on the cross at Calvary. I am taken aback by the majestic work done throu according to […]
