It is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take away sins (Heb 10:4). Only the precious sacrifice of Jesus could do that. “Cling to the Cross, the burden will fall; Christ hath redeemed us once and for all” (Philip P. Bliss). Christ cleansing power can remove the most stubborn stain…
THEY WILL FADE AWAY
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf, and or iniquities like the wind, have taken us away – Isaiah 64:6. Just as the stars fade from view in the greater glory of the sun, so the types and…
BE CAREFUL – CAKE EATERS
But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you, Matt 6:33. “Men in great places are thrice servants; servants of the Sovereign or State, servants of Fame, and servants of business” – Francis Bacon. You are much more a servant of Satan for not…
JUST TO REMIND YOU
We therefore commit his body to the ground, earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust. In the midst of life we are in death. Man that is born of a woman hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. (Book of Common Prayer) Man that is born of a…
THERE IS A WAY
There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death – Pro 16:25. The good news can plant itself in the very midst of those who are seeking to destroy it. The gates of Hades shall not prevail against the church of Jesus Christ; do you…
HIS FAVOUR REST
Glory to God in the highest heaven and on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests – Luke 2:14. The Father had promised him, and the prophets had announced him. The festivals and rituals of the Old Testament pointed to his arrival and His mission. Christmas is the celebration of eternity being realized…
PICK AND CHOOSE ANY COUNTRY OF THE WORLD
I am the light of the world, whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life, John 8:12. When Jesus, through his Spirit, comes into your life, you are transformed and you receive a new heart, a new mind, a new name, a new family, and a new citizenship….
JESUS, THE BREAD OF LIFE
I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty, John 6:35. Hunger is a harsh reality. Millions of people go to bed each night with their stomachs growling. Millions of children, with bloated abdomens and ribs showing, compete with vultures in…
JESUS – OUR GREAT GOD AND SAVIOUR
All authority in heaven and earth has been given to me – Matt 28:18. Jesus has power over creation, over the realms of darkness, over illness and over death. For Jesus every problem has a solution. If you are desperate and in the grip of problems that are greater than your strength, give them…
JESUS, FRIEND OF SINNERS
Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners, Matt 11:19. Jesus is the greatest expression of God’s love for you and me. He knows your pain, sees your tears and listens to your cries. He knows your past and sees your future. He knows your feelings, read all…
WHAT MUST I DO
Then he called for a light and brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shall be saved and thy house (Acts 16:29-31). God’s grace had won another trophy at Philippi.
OUR ONLY MEDIATOR
Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders,…
