What Shall I Render

In Christ, God has given us a love beyond our understanding and forgiveness that secures our journey.

God is the good Father, and in His house we find blessing, protection, purpose, and belonging.

What God has given us, in Christ Jesus, must remain in our minds and hearts. We must choose to continue to put our trust in Him and His work for us and in us!

The flesh would hold us captive to its desires, and sin would hold us as slaves by the power of law. Christ has redeemed us and set us free, we must continue trusting in Him.

A life of faith is a precious journey. It takes place in real life, all aspects of it!

God never commanded men to use human effort to clothe, cover, or redeem themselves. He calls us to find and remember what He has provided in these regards.

God gave the Law of Moses to show His people, Israel, the sinfulness of their sin and their subsequent need for Him. It never had the capacity to justify the sinner.

The Gospel is God's truth that accomplishes the impossible for us in Christ Jesus.

When God's promises bring us laughter we know His power in our lives.

God paid the price of His Son to rescue you from your sin. Boy, oh boy, what power we find in His rescue?!

The most important revelation in Scripture is always what it can tell us about our God, and we must learn to read the Bible accordingly. Because, without trusting Him nothing we do could please Him (Heb 11:6).

God's call brings us to His Son. We must humble ourselves before that call to find the victory given us in Jesus.

Give thanks to the LORD, His love and faithfulness endure forever. Never will He leave or forsake His own (Psa 118).

The commands of God to repent and be baptized are calling us to Christ. The promise of forgiveness and the Holy Spirit are a call to Christ. God's purpose is accomplished in Christ Jesus.

God's call and promises bring hope where there has been none; and they bring life from the dead!

Christ is more than our example, and the Bible is more than rules.

God is the God who gives endurance and encouragement (Rom 15:5). Christ connects us to God, and Christ connects us to one another for our encouragement and perseverance.

The gospel does not remove pain, suffering, and loss from this life, and it does not satisfy the desires of our flesh. The gospel saves our souls and works to transformed the saved into the likeness of Christ.

When sin finds its way into our lives, we should remember who our God is. Genesis is a good guide into God's nature and the power of His promises!

God's love is powerful to save and it directs us through the hardships of our lives.

The powerful redeeming nature of our God will guide our hearts through the most difficult times (Isa 40-41).

We understand the treasure of political and civil freedoms we have in our country, but God offers a real life giving freedom to us in Christ!

God promised Abraham that He would bless the world through him, by a single Offspring/Seed, and that One born to bless and redeem was the Christ, the Son of God (Gen 22:18; Gal 3:16).

Sin came into the world through man, and subsequently death reigned. God gracefully gives righteousness to reign in life - Rom 5:21.

God's record of Himself in the Genesis account can help us live holy lives, today.
