Love Results in Discipline and Obedience     BELIEVERS ARE CHILDREN OF GOD Prov 14:26 In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.  The person who fears the Lord can be confident that the Lord loves him and that the Lord will always be faithful to care for him as a loving father cares for his child. John 1:11-13 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the s

There cannot be a relationship without communication.   God communicates with us through His word.   We communicate with God through prayer.     Luke 6:12 And it was at this time that He went off to the mountain to pray, and He spent the whole night in prayer to God. Jesus spent much time in prayer speaking to His Father and our Father who is in heaven. When we first believed in Jesus Christ we were born again, we became true children of God. Because we are united with Christ

Teaching the Bible Is the Key to Revival   Ps 119:9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word. If a Christian is to keep his way pure, he must live according to the teachings of the word of God. The word of God gives us directions in our thoughts, in our words, and in our actions. Prov 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. The way to train a child is according to the wor

Thanksgiving is not a once a year event for the Christian. Thanksgiving should be a daily, and a moment to moment event, and a way of life for the Christian. Ps 50:14-15 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High: And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. A sacrifice is a form of worship, and thanksgiving is also. Thanksgiving gives honor to God. When we look to God to meet our needs He does not disappoint us

The only way to be prepared for the things to come.   Exod 33:13-14 Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people. And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. Moses knew that God loved Him, and that knowledge gave him confidence in prayer to God. Moses knew God, but he wanted to know Him better and to know His

We Work for the Lord by Doing All Things As Unto Him   John 6:27-29 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. The first and foremost work of God, the work that God w

The Bible Is Our Standard of Truth - Not Religious Tradition Matt 12:38-40 Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee. But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the hea

WHO ARE THE SONS OF GOD? WHO ARE THE DAUGHTERS OF MEN? Gen 4:25-26 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew. And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD. Cain and his descendants were rebels; they rebelled against God, they did not obey Him, and they did not fear Him. Seth and his

We Are Chosen No one seeks for God. Ps 14:2-3 The LORD has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God. They have all turned aside; together they have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.  See also Rom 3:10-12 No one seeks for God, there is not even one person in the whole wide world who seeks for God. Some people claim to seek for God, but God’s word says that no one seeks for God. The wo

God Saved Us and He Will Keep Us Saved Forever John 10:27-30 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and my Father are one. Jesus Christ gives eternal life to all who belong to Him, and we have His word that we shall never perish. Fu

The Only Way To Please God Heb 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Our knowledge and understanding of God must begin by faith in Him, we must believe He is. By faith we know that God is the creator of all things and as a result, we give glory to God. Rom 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shal

The Work of the Holy Spirit John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Jesus Christ is the only way to be saved, to obtain forgiveness of sins, to be made right with God; He is the only true God, and in Him is the only truth there is about God. Jesus Christ is the source of all life, and the only source of eternal life; no one can approach God except through Him. Luke 12:8-10 Also I say unto you, Whosoeve

LORD AND SAVIOR - ALMIGHTY GOD CREATOR OF HEAVEN AND EARTH   Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. God was in the beginning before anything was created, God always was, God had no beginning. God created all things, everything comes from God. Deut 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: There is only one God, one Creator, one source of all things. John 1:1-3&14 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God

Salvation Was Completed On The Cross John 19:28-30 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst. Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth. When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. When Jesus said it is finished, and gave up His spirit, H

Jesus Is The Only Way   John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. We did not love God, but God loved us and gave His Son to die for the forgiveness of our sins. Everyone who believes in Jesus Christ will not perish, not go to hell, but have everlasting life. Our salvation is all of God’s doing from beginning to end, and it is ours by simply believing in Jesus Christ.

Saved By Grace Through Faith Rom 3:19-26, James 2:10, Rom 3:10, Gal 3:24-26, John 14:6, 1Pet 1:18-19, Gal 2:19-20, Acts 16:31 Rom 3:19-20 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. The Law here refers to the rule of obedience th

Jesus Is the Only Rock of Our Salvation Deut 32:18 Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee. In this verse we see that the God of creation is referred to as the Rock, and sense there is only one creator, there is only one Rock. Deut 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. In this verse we see that the one and only perfect, just, faithfu
