This love is incomprehensible and based on God's mercy, not our own worthiness. We are positionally seated with Christ in heavenly places, and God's love will be revealed to us throughout eternity, demonstrating the exceeding riches of his grace and kindness. [... more]

The psalm celebrates the blessing of children, the defense of the family, and the prosperity and protection of the city, ultimately pointing forward to Jesus as the true fulfillment of everything that had been pointed to and anticipated in all that had been said about the king.

In a World of Betrayal, BE FAITHFUL (Pt. 1)

Betrayal is a painful and common experience, even among Christians. Jesus warned that betrayal would become more frequent in the last days, and it's already happening in our world. We can see examples of betrayal in the Bible, from the story of Judas Iscariot to the betrayal of God the Father by Satan. Jesus also warned that the time of the end would be a time of offense, betrayal, and hatred, where Christians would turn against each other. To avoid this, we need to choose our friends carefully and surround ourselves with people who are loyal to God and to us. [... more]
