This plan was not based on human works or merit, but on God's sovereign election and predestination.

The gospel message is a source of eternal life, and believers have a responsibility to share it with others. The story of Andrew and Simon Peter, who discovered the Messiah and couldn't keep it to themselves, is a powerful example of this. Just like D.L. Moody, who founded the Moody Memorial Church by sharing the gospel with children, we too must be willing to share the good news with those around us. The consequences of not sharing the gospel are severe, as seen in the great white throne judgment in Revelation. On the other hand, those who have discovered the fountain of everlasting life must understand their purpose and be ambassadors for Christ, begging a world to be reconciled to God. [... more]

According to the Apostle Paul, this doctrine has been the cornerstone of the gospel for centuries, and it is the key to understanding our hope for eternal salvation. Through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, God has provided for our salvation, and it is by faith in Him that we can receive this gift.

The ceasefire in Israel may set the stage for God's future rescue, with President Trump's administration playing a crucial role in brokering a deal between Israel and Hamas. However, the agreement has its drawbacks, including the release of Hamas terrorists and the potential for a two-state solution, which could lead to the division of the land of Israel. From a biblical prophecy standpoint, the situation in the Middle East is setting the stage for the end times, with Israel's ascendance and the Abraham Accords being significant developments. The leadership of Israel is not in a position of faith, and the country is facing internal opposition, but God is working His plan for the redemption of Israel, and Christians should pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the return of Jesus Christ. [... more]
