FIRST OF ALL

I passed on to you first of all

what I also receieved, that Christ

died for our sins in accordance

with the Scriptures,

That He was buried, that He rose

on the third day as the Scriptures

foretold,

And also that He appeared to Cephas,

then to the Twelve.

Then later He showed Himself to more

than five hundred brothers and sisters

at one time, the majority of whom are

still alive, but some have fallen asleep.

Afterward He was seen by James,

then by all the apostles,

And last of all He appeared to me also,

as to one prematurely born and dead.

For I am the least of the apostles, who

am not fit to be … Continue Reading

SETTLE

May Christ through your faith settle down in your hearts!

May you be rooted deep in love and founded securely on

love,

That you may have the power to apprehend with all the

saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth;

That you may really come to know through experience

the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge;

that you may be filled with all your being unto all the

fullness of God!

(Ephesians 3.17-19).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

BEST NEWS

I am not ashamed of the Gospel (Best News Ever) of Christ,

for it is God’s power working unto salvation to everyone who

believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek,

For in the Gospel (Best News Ever) a righteousness that God

ascribes is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to

faith. As it is written, The man who through faith is just and

upright shall live by faith.

(Romans 1.17 &18).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

UNENDING RICHES

To me, though I am the very least of all the saints,

this grace was granted and graciously entrusted; to

proclaim to the Gentiles the unending riches of Christ.

(Ephesians 3.8).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

RECOGNIZE

David did not ascend into the heavens; yet he himself says,

The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand and share My

throne

Until I make Your enemies  footstool for Your feet.

Therefore let the whole house of Israel recognize beyond

all doubt and acknowledge assuredly that God has made

Him both Lord and Christ the Messiah this Jesus Whom

you crucified.

Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and

they said, Brothers and sisters, what shall we do?

And Peter answered them, Repent (change your views and

purpose to accept the will of God in your inner selves instead

of rejecting it) and be … Continue Reading

IN THE SPLENDOR OF HIS GLORY

When Christ, Who is your life, appears,

then you also will appear with Him

in the splendor of His glory.

(Colossians 3.4).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

NEW AND LIVING WAY

Whereas Christ, after He had offered Himself as

sacrifice for our sins for all time, sat down at the

right hand of God,

Then to wait until His enemies should be made a

stool beneath His feet.

For by a single offering He has forever completely

cleansed and perfected those who are consecrated.

And also the Holy Spirit adds His testimony to us.

For having said,

This is the covenant that I will conclude with them

after those days, says the Lord: I will imprint My

laws upon their hearts, I will inscribe them on their

minds,

He then goes on to say, And their sins I will remember

no more.

Now where there is absolute … Continue Reading

FIRST

We have become fellows with Christ

and share in all He has for us, if only

we hold our first newborn confidence

and original assured expectation firm

and unshaken to the end.

(Hebrew 3.14).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

READ

When you read this you can understand

my insight into the mystery of Christ.

This mystery has never been disclosed

to human beings in past generations

as it has now been revealed to His holy

apostles and prophets by the Holy Spirit.

It is this: that the Gentiles are now to be

fellow heirs with the Jews, members of

the same body and joint partakers in the

same divine promise in Christ through

their acceptance of the glad tidings

(the Gospel-Best News Ever).

(Ephesians 3.4-6).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

ROOTED

May Christ through your faith dwell in your hearts!

May you be rooted deep in love and founded

securely on His love!

(Ephesians 3.17).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
