Thank you to everyone for all the support this week! It didn’t end how I wanted but I am so glad for the experience and the opportunity to represent Troy one last time
This image confronts us with two of the greatest scandals of Christianity.
The first scandal is that none of us are good enough for heaven.
Most people compare themselves to serial killers, dictators, rapists, and criminals and conclude, "At least I'm not that bad." But God does not compare us to Jeffrey Dahmer. He compares us to His own perfect holiness. Scripture says that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. The proud businessman, the moral neighbor, the avid atheist, the faithful churchgoer, and the murderer all stand guilty before a holy God apart from Christ.
The second scandal is that God saves anyone at all.
The real question is not, "How could God save someone like Dahmer if he truly repented and believed?" The real question is, "How could God save any of us?" Every person deserves judgment. Every person deserves separation from God. Salvation is never owed. It is never earned. It is pure grace from beginning to end.
That is what makes the gospel so offensive to human pride. It tells the worst sinner that he can be forgiven through Christ, and it tells the best-looking sinner that he cannot save himself.
The cross levels everyone. We are all condemned in Adam, and the only hope for any of us is Jesus Christ.
Then she clearly didn’t watch it because it wasn’t Trump focused. The focus was on Medal of Honor recipients, the fighters, the U.S. military and the fans.
Mauricio Ruffy proclaims the gospel after his UFC White House win
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus saved my life, he wants to save your life too. Give your life to Jesus" ✝️
The right man won…
“FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.“
Give your life to JESUS!
Can I get an amen?
“You just walk in like you belong.”
“They're so fat and satisfied, they can't imagine it… that someone like me would ever get inside their house, walk their floors, spit in their food, take their gear.”
Steven Spielberg saying his new movie Disclosure
Day will have Christians questioning their faith in God. I promise you Steven it will not. It will only reinforce my knowledge that demons are among us and that Jesus was right about everything.
