🚨🚨 Good news! 👀
We are all guilty before God, and all our sins separated us from Him.
Jesus, God the Son, was crucified, rose from the dead, and is coming again!
Turn from self, surrender to Christ, and trust in Him alone for forgiveness and eternal life. He's the only way!

Jesus said, "the love of many will grow cold." The acceleration of the decent of humanity toward the judgment of God is fueled by hate. Whether it's the woke left, woke right or MAGA, the common denominator is hate.

Why couldn't God just forgive sin?

Why did Jesus have to die?

Couldn't an all-powerful God simply declare everyone forgiven and move on?

This is the most important question in all of theology.

And the answer reveals something about God's nature that most Christians have never fully grasped.

I was due the penalty of death.
Penal.

Someone else died.
Substitutionary.

Therefore, I don't die.
Atonement.

It really is that simple.

@autocorrect2_0 @valorthodoxia While it doesn't use the word, a bedrock Scripture about sanctification is Philippians 2:13 ... "it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure."

“All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out. For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will but the will of him who sent me. And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up on the last day. For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him should have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.”
-John 6:37-40

This evil, antichrist man just said every child in Belfast who was kicked out of their homes should be dropped from 30,000 feet.

Read what he responded to.

David wrote this in a dry and barren wilderness:

My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness,
And my mouth shall praise You with joyful lips.

I’m not really understanding the comparison between the length of a pool and the height of a building.

[Cuckturd @CattardSlim]

I was bummed about having to fill up my tank & go grocery shopping, but now that I've heard that the reflecting LAKE is taller than the Empire State building, for the 37th time, I feel much better!

@JenniferEValent This reminds me of a story when I was *much* younger ... I was walking through a park and saw a nearby squirrel. I had candy in my pocket, so just to be a jerk to squirrels, I rustled the wrapper so it would hear it. It did, and it jumped up onto my chest! Served me right.

[Philagape @keithrobphil]

@megbasham So this trumps (no pun) helping to kill babies. Got it.
