The first four verses of Hebrews is one of the most informative sentences relating to Jesus saying: (Hebrews 1:1-4)…..”God, who at various times and in different ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds; who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself …
It is called….
We who have been given the gospel, who have believed its message, are blessed beyond measure. God’s gospel was promised before through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures (1 Peter 1:6-12). God’s gospel concerns …
(Psalm 119:89) says…..Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled in heaven. Heaven is not running around trying to figure out the will of God. His Word is settled in Heaven. God surely had enough time before the Bible was written down to make any changes in His plans. Now that He has given His Word, He will keep it and see that it comes to pass. That truth we can take to the bank so to speak. (Mark 13:31) says…..”Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will …
Take a moment and read (Psalm 2). This particular Psalm is a Messianic Psalm, that is, it is a prophesy of Jesus Christ the Messiah, hundreds of years before He was born into this world. This psalm not only spoke powerfully in the day it was written, but it speaks powerfully and prophetically to us as the Church today. No matter how dark the times, how wicked our nation becomes, we can rest with assurance that Jesus Christ, the Righteous King, still reigns as Lord and Ruler over all the Earth …
(Romans 8:32)…..He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for
us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?
Most people approach prayer as an exercise in convincing God to help them. They think they must twist God’s arm, or promise to do something, in order to get God to give them anything. The New Testament paints a different picture. God not only is a willing giver, but has already given to us all things that pertain to life and Godliness (2 …
(Revelation 19:1-10)…..After these things I heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Alleluia! Salvation and glory and honor and power belong to the Lord our God! 2 For true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her.” 3 Again they said, “Alleluia! Her smoke rises up forever and ever!” 4 And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and …
(Psalm 55:16-18)…..As for me, I will call upon God, and the Lord shall save me. 17 Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, and He shall hear my voice. 18 He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, for there were many against me. Take note of what David said in these verses.
David said….”As for me, I will call upon God. David does not say he will call upon a creature, or on idols, or on a image, on …
Not everyone in Jesus’ day thought He was Who He claimed to be, and it’s the same today. Many thought then that He was nothing more than a nobody, and many feel the same today. Many thought He was an evil man, and many feel the same today. Many thought He was irrelevant to the times, and many feel the same today. Many were unaffected by His words, and many feel His words are meaningless today. In His time on earth Jesus was thought of as nothing more than…….
The Sadducees were wrong about the resurrection, just as it is possible for some people to be wrong about the resurrection today. It can happen so let’s go over a few things concerning the resurrection.
Being a servant of God is a great honor. But not many like the idea of being a servant, especially in the likeness of Jesus who gave Himself, who came to serve. He was foretold to come as the – Suffering Servant (Isaiah 52:13-15). He did not come to be served – but to serve – (Matthew 20:27-28) (Philippians 2:7). Even as our Lord and Master – He is the example the servitude that He desires of His disciple(John 13:12-17). Being a servant of our Lord Jesus …
