“In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” (John 14:2)

No doubt, a much better kind of house than we live in now.

“Religious”, in the negative sense of the word, means any spiritual activity disconnected from the reality of knowing Jesus Christ by faith.

The galaxies are His.
LORD of the Universe.
LORD of Heaven and Earth.
Jesus Christ.

As Christians, the world should become progressively empty and vain to us, because we are not of it, if we are growing in Christ, and with this declining interest in the things of the world, our interest in God and in people should replace it.
…
Faith is given to us to do His will, not our own.
…
When the law becomes political it’s no longer the law, it’s a joke.
….
“Sin can bring pleasure, but never happiness.“
— RC Sproul
…
The Bible says, the body without the spirit is dead, and in the same way, one’s spirit without the Holy Spirit is dead. Apart from the Holy Spirit everyone’s spirit is dead.

….
Whatever sin in others repulses, grieves or hurts us, we need to acknowledge that the same sin lurks within our own sin nature, somewhere deep in our heart, at least in some measure, as we all inherited a sin nature.
We have a sin nature, a natural bent to disobey and shun God, and this is why Jesus said, ‘You must be born again!’ …so He can give us a new nature, which is His nature.
See Galatians 5. Our sin nature is called “the flesh”.
…..
God created each one of us as a masterpiece, then we threw that priceless masterpiece into the sewer. This describes the state of man, and why we all need to become a new creation in Christ.

The creation should serve its Creator.

It’s fair to say that when someone has false views of God, and heretical ideas about the truths of scripture, or a lifestyle which is not harmonious with Jesus of Nazareth, then, if they claim to have intimacy with God we need to ask, which God? And which Jesus? And which Spirit? And which Gospel?
….
Walking in the Spirit is predicated upon a person knowing the reality of the Holy Spirit indwelling them all the time, therefore, moment by moment it is this reality which governs their thoughts, words and actions. If their thoughts, words and actions, choices and decisions, are in harmony with the indwelling Holy Spirit, and they know His witness within them, having peace with what He is at peace with, and being disturbed by what disturbs Him, they live, moment by moment by this dynamic. And if they don’t, they know it and quickly repent.
…..
In any sphere of human life, society, or politics, if you raise the issue of morality, or right and wrong, you are, ultimately, referring to a spiritual concept.
….
What we think about God’s word is what we think about God.
….
Jesus saved me 35 years ago. For every moment of every day since then He has been real to me. I’m very happy He saved me. Very happy He changed my heart toward God, toward others, and toward my own sinful nature. Very happy to no longer fear death and Judgment Day. Very happy to have His assurance and promise that I will live with Him and His people forever.
