The all-sufficiency of the Scriptures is an important doctrine to know and understand. for the Scriptures are completely adequate (2 Timothy 3:16-17). God has provided all that we need for life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). We do not need further revelatioThus we have that which is able to build us up and give us our inheritance (Acts 20:32). As Paul prepared the Ephesian elders for the time when he would be gone. He commended them to the word of God’s grace (Acts 20:29-32), which was able to build them up, …

Not everyone in Jesus’ day thought He was Who He claimed to be, and it is 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 however, 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 …

(Hebrews 12:24)…..to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel. The Blood testifies that Jesus set us free from all the curse and made us able to partake of the inheritance of the saints. The Blood testifies that Jesus bought our redemption and set us free from the wrath of God and the work of the devil.

(Ephesians1:7)…..In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace. We …

(Ephesians 2:4)…..But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,…..

The devil promotes the lie that God is mad at people and anxious to condemn them, but the Bible says that God is rich in mercy. It is true that God will judge mankind for his sin, but He is not condemning man because He is mean. Man will be condemned because they do not know God and because they did not believe the gospel (1 Thessalonians 1:5-10).

Mercy means not getting …

(John 20:31)…..but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name. “But how can I believe in an invisible God?” You may not see God, but open your eyes and look around and you will see God in action, through His creation, and His work in His people, in people’s testimonies of God’s provision and deliverance, in miracles happening all over the earth, in answered prayer.

(John 20:29)…..Jesus said to him, “Thomas, because you …

(Psalm 7:1-8)…..O Lord my God, in You I put my trust; Save me from all those who persecute me; And deliver me, ² lest they tear me like a lion, rending me in pieces, while there is none to deliver. ³ O Lord my God, if I have done this: If there is iniquity in my hands, ⁴ if I have repaid evil to him who was at peace with me, or have plundered my enemy without cause, ⁵ let the enemy pursue me and overtake me; Yes, let him trample …

(1 Timothy 2:1-2)…..First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, 2 for kings and all who are in authority, in order that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.

He’s not my president! I never voted for him/her! They are from that ultra liberal party! He/she is to conservative for me! I have heard so many horrible things that people say about the political party they are opposed to. But let’s assume for …

Good morning! Here is an early thought to ponder, “How great is the name of God to us?” “To you individually?” If His name is not great to us, then why isn’t it? The LORD’s name is this name that we can call upon to save us (Psalm 5:11)! That should excite us today! The name of God, when we reflect on Him, should stir so many emotions in us because He is….

The second epistle of Peter is certainly a poignant letter written with an awareness that his death was imminent (2 Peter 1:14). Warning that false teachers would seek to lead them astray (2 Peter 2:1-2). With a hope that they would be mindful of the commandments given to them by the apostles of Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:1-2). 

The final command this aged apostle leaves his readers is a charge to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). …

(1 Thessalonians 2:17-20)…..But we, brethren, having been taken away from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavored more eagerly to see your face with great desire. ¹⁸ Therefore we wanted to come to you—even I, Paul, time and again—but Satan hindered us. ¹⁹ For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming? ²⁰ For you are our glory and joy.
