NEW BIRTH

He saved us, not because of any works of righteousness

that we had done, but because of His mercy, by cleansing

of the new birth and renewing of the Holy Spirit,

Which He poured out richly upon us through Jesus Christ

our Savior.

(Titus 3.5 & 6).

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!

HEALED

He personally bore our sins in His body

on the tree, that we might die to sin and

live to righteousness. By His wounds you

have been healed.

(I. Peter 2. 24).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

DO NOT FRET

Do not fret because of evildoers, nor

be envious of the workers of iniquity.

For they shall soon be cut down like

the grass, and wither as the green herb.

Trust in the Lord, and do good, dwell

in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.

Delight yourself also in the Lord, and

He shall give you the desires of your

heart.

Commit your way to the Lord, trust

also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.

He shall bring forth your righteousness

as the light, and your justice as the noonday.

Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him,

do not fret because of Him who prospers

in his way, because … Continue Reading

ALIVE

What shall we say, then?

Shall we go on sinning so

that grace may increase?

By no means! We died to

sin; how can we live in it

any longer?

Or don’t you know that all

of us who were baptized into

Christ Jesus were baptized into

His death? We were therefore

buried with Him through baptism

into death in order that, just as Christ

was raised from the dead through the

glory of the Father, we too may live a

new life.

If we have been united with Him like

this in His death, we will certainly also

be united with Him in His resurrection.

For we know that our old self was crucified

with Him so that … Continue Reading

HIS KINGDOM

Seek first of all His kingdom

and His righteousness, and

then all these things will

be given you besides.

(Matthew 6. 33).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

BY FAITH

It was not through law that

Abraham and his offspring

received the promise that

he would be heir of the world,

but through the righteousness

that comes by faith.

(Romans 4.13).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

REVEALED

I am not ashamed of the gospel

(Best News Ever), because it is

the power of God for the salvation

of everyone who believes: first for

the Jew, then for the Gentile. For in

the gospel (Best News Ever)  a

righteousness from God is revealed,

a righteousness that is by faith from

first to last, just as it is written: “The

righteous will live by faith.”

(Romans 1.16 & 17).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

THE SON

The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and

the exact representation of His being,

sustaining all things by His powerful word.

After He had provided purification for sins,

He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty

in heaven. So he became as much superior to

the angels as the name He has inherited is

superior to theirs.

For to which of the angels did God ever say,

“You are My Son;

today I have become Your Father”?

Or again,

“I will be His Father, and He will be My Son”?

And again, when God Brings His firstborn into

the world, He says,

“Let all God’s angels worship Him.”

In speaking of the angels … Continue Reading

LAW

It was not through law that Abraham

and his offspring received the promise

that he would be heir of the world, but

through the righteousness that comes

by faith.

(Romans 4.13).
