When Jesus of Nazareth came along, people saw Him open blind eyes, make cripples walk, and even raise dead people back to life. Then they saw Him die, be buried, and three days later come back to life.

Now, whatever their understanding or beliefs concerning life, death, or God were, the fact of these miracles they witnessed confronted them.

This was not within the realm of philosophy or religion.

They were undeniably confronted with God.

And nothing has changed.

….

No amount of religious observances or rituals can make us Christians.

Only Christ in us makes us His.

…..

Jesus’ physical body is seated at the right hand of the Father in glory.

His Spirit is here, indwelling His people.

…..

Human life literally hangs by a thread.

How fragile we are.

Edwards said that those outside of Christ literally dangle over Hell by a slim thread, and it is the sheer mercy of God the thread hasn’t snapped under the weight of their sin and they drop into Hell.

….

Refusal to pray for someone can sometimes be a refusal to extend mercy.

….

One way to test whether a conspiracy theory is true is to look at the odds or probability that so many people could secretly conspire together to keep a great secret and not break ranks and spill the beans.

…..

It’s futile to seek happiness independent of God.

…..

If you see a dead body, what you’re seeing is someone’s shell. They are no longer in that shell. They are somewhere else.

The inner person is a spirit.

For us who are born again, our spirit lives solely by the Holy Spirit in us. We have no life independent of God.

Christ is now our LIFE.

If we didn’t have Him in us we would be spiritually dead.

And this was our former state: we had a spirit living within this physical shell, but our spirit was dead in sin.

Christ made our spirit come alive by His very presence in us, and recreated us into a new creature, a new person, in His image.

…..

Christian, would you consider yourself to be a servant?

….

Psalm 23:4

“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are WITH me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.”

…You are WITH me.

….You are WITH me.

….You are WITH me.

So I will fear no evil.

…..

Abiding in Christ bears the fruit of that abiding, Jesus taught in John 15.

…..

Read today:

“For Christians, the greatest happiness in this life is knowing that the greatest happiness is not in this life.”

….

Dependence on God manifests in near constant prayer and thanksgiving.

….

The greatest intelligence is God, Himself.

All other forms of intelligence originate from Him.

…..

In the world, truth is a perspective which takes shape according to personal interest. It’s subjective.

…..

Saw a video of some Christians being beaten with pieces of wood for their faith, and they just stood there and took it with dignity. No one could rob their dignity.

It should convict their attackers and the spectators that these people have something they don’t have.

(I can’t mention where it took place)

……

King David’s songs still good after 3000 years. Love singing them.

…..

Aren’t we lucky we evolved the ability to reproduce, otherwise we would have been goners!

Eventually we had to evolve a functioning reproductive system, otherwise what would have happened to the human race?!

….

Titus 2:14
“…who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.”

.
.
We are His own special people.

He is purifying us for Himself.

…..

As Christians, we choose our own discipline. If we drift away from fellowship with God, that emptiness caused by our lack of fellowship with Him is our discipline.

…..

Read today:

“The happier you are within, the less material goods you need to buy.”

…..

All the famous people will soon be dead, gone and forgotten.

Only in Christ does life have eternal meaning.

….

When you see a person do you see a living soul? Or something else?

…..

For every thing which God does for us He’s worthy of being thanked for it.

…..

Societal trends are driven by copycat behavior, which, in turn, is driven by spiritual influence. The starting point is a deep feeling of inadequacy or discontentment.

…..

If people are wonderful, their Creator is much more so.

If people are kind, their Creator, who bestowed them with this ability, is much kinder.

…..

In the Lord’s Table (which is the culmination and fulfillment of the Old Covenant feasts) the simple act of eating a meal and filling our stomachs is elevated to something holy in the sight of God. We can learn something from this, that true holiness is manifested in how we live in this physical world before God: the marriage of the spiritual and the physical.

…

God knows what it’s like to be one of us because He became one of us.

Who wants to have a “Woke Totalitarian Social Credit System”?
