In Galatians 2:20, he said he had been crucified with Christ. Paul didn’t say, “we are crucified with Christ.” That statement was a personal confession he made out of the bowels of his spirit. And that doesn’t mean the scripture doesn’t apply to us Christians. No, it does. However, it demands that we’ll lay our minds to it.
God isn’t like a shifting shadow. The light He carries is unapproachable (1 Timothy 6:16). It’s so bright that there’s no shadow of turning. He does not change.
Jesus will to keep expanding His kingdom. And that prophecy in Isaiah 9:7 is being fulfilled on daily basis. Learn how it works in this article.
Babies cry to their mothers when they are hungry. In Christ, that implies you must not casually expect to be fed by the labour of your pastor or ministers. Instead, you must pursue knowing God by yourself by becoming more deterministic in consuming sound doctrine in the Word.
Jesus likened His relationship with God’s people to a shepherd and sheep. That means, He being the shepherd, is responsible for guiding us through His voice, and providing for our needs, even if it involves dying for us (the sheep). And yes, He did it because He knew we needed salvation, even when we’ve not yet asked Him.
So many people live in suffering because they fail to consult God on which way to take and what to do. Life isn’t about try and error. It’s about purpose, and the Holy Spirit is the perfect person to help you navigate this life in the light of God. Come to Jesus. Learn of Him, and cleave to His Word. He’ll not fail you.
Salvation is for every person on earth because Jesus came to die for all. But it’s not just a mere escape from hell. It’s also a continual process that seeks to transform you, both inwardly and outwardly until you become just like Jesus. The inworking and outworking aspects of salvation are written in Philippians 2:12-13, and knowing them will help you to understand your walk with God.
So many things people see as earthly have spiritual meaning to them. If only we would study the scriptures and possess spiritual understanding, it’ll become easy to distinguish what’s flesh and what’s from the Spirit.
Before Jesus came to the world, God used to speak through the prophets (Hebrews 1:1). But now, it’s not so. Jesus is the current language of God.
What is a candle? It’s a small substance made of wax and thick thread that lights up when it catches fire. Candles aren’t as bright as light bulbs. Their brightness reaches short distances, and until lit, they’ll never function. What can we learn from this?
Circumstances will come. You’ll see the highs and lows of life several times. But God has vowed to be for you no matter what. He’s not like a man who says one thing and does the opposite the next day. He is God. He’ll perform the Word of His counsel. Trust in His holy Word even if you can’t trace Him in your life, for He will never fail you.
In an information-saturated world and social media, it has become common for people to follow and listen to specific ministers of Christ online. All these things are good. But the truth is, God doesn’t replace any of them. Who you’re listening to is also listening to God, who gave him the message he’s preaching. So follow ministers once what they’re teaching is leading you to Christ.
