I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus. Acts 20:24
Jesus Christ comes to set the captives free, but then He brings those now liberated slaves home with Him. They become members of His household, members of His family. And as family members, they are able to partake of all the benefits of being God’s children.
Church is essential.
Ministry is essential.
Pastors are essential.
Preaching is essential.
Worship is essential.
Fellowship is essential.
There’s no “new normal.”
To everyone who was hoping 2021 would bring relief from overbearing government lockdowns, masks, and business killing regulation---sorry, but you haven't seen anything yet. Get ready for the Harris team to make Melbourne look like child's play. Voters regret is coming.
When we see things go badly in the public, the all-wise God holds the reins of government in his hand, and whoever the earthly ruler—God over-rules. He knows how to turn all to good. His work will be beautiful in its season.
Thomas Watson
Liberties will be lost, speech will be silenced, and babies will be brutally killed.
And yet, the Word of God is true, the people of God will persevere, and the church of God will triumph.
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.”
—Ronald Reagan
“The Lord does not measure out our afflictions according to our faults but according to our strengths, and looks not at what we deserve but at what we are able to bear.” ~ George Downame
Dear Christian,
For 80 years or less, we’ll suffer.
But for a 1,000 years and more, we’ll rest forever.
For a million years and more, we’ll rejoice forever.
For a billion years and more, we’ll be with Christ forever.
Dear Christian, all the suffering you’ve ever encountered was prescribed by God in love for you, having the guiding desire of your conformity to Jesus Christ.
Psalm 116:15 Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.
Praying for Tim and his family in the midst of this significant loss. So thankful for the God of all comfort.
Cheer up, faint hearted Christian....Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the RULER of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood. -Revelation 1:5
Daniel 4:34-35 ..I blessed the Most High, and praised and honored him who lives forever, for his dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom endures from generation to generation...
