Just a Thought: Our salvation changed everything! When God makes us new (2 Cor. 5:17) Everything changes. Our old sin nature is gone and is replaced with a new spiritual nature. My old Body still has its old appetites. But I am no longer a slave to them. My old wicked and deceitful heart has… Read More »

Just a Thought: What happens when one truly gets saved cannot be humanly manufactured. The reason this is true is because salvation is not simply turning over a new leaf, it is getting a new heart and becoming a new you. I know lots of people who have “turned over a new leaf” in their… Read More »

Just a Thought: God chooses to see me apart from my sin. God’s love has caused Him to desire to save men from their sin (Jn. 3:16) He did not wait for us to get cleaned up. Become better people. Nor did He say, “Well if they will love Me I will provide salvation for… Read More »

Just a Thought: If you knew me like I know me, you may never say “There goes a righteous guy.” But that is the beauty of God’s grace. You don’t have to declare me righteous because God already has! Now, don’t get me wrong. I didn’t say I was a saint and you just didn’t… Read More »

Just a Thought: I have heard people say, “God just wants me to be happy!” But scripture is clear He is far more concerned with me being holy. However, when I am holy and drawing closer to Him, that is when I am happiest. Now, the reason this is true is because the closer I… Read More »

Just a Thought: The Lord can even use what the devil means for evil for our good. The Apostle Paul was used in a mighty way by the Lord. From him we have two thirds of the New Testament. He was a missionary and a church planter. He was a pastor and a preacher. He… Read More »

Just a Thought: You don’t have to have your very own guardian angel because you already have many angels who guard you. I hear people speak of (sometimes joking sometimes serious) their guardian angel. Well, they are not completely wrong. We do not have just one guardian angel assigned to us. But the Lord has… Read More »

Just a Thought: You are safe in the arms of the Lord! Daniel certainly believed this. He told King Darius he would be fine no matter what happened. Throw me in the den of lions. The Lord will deliver me one way or the other. Either He’ll protect me or take me home to be… Read More »
