As Jesus led His disciples, He was constantly teaching them the truth of the Kingdom of God and how things have been created. David says that, “good and upright is the Lord, and He instructs sinners in the way, He leads the humble in what is right and teaches the humble His way.” What an amazing thing that Jesus would want to come to us in order to show us the path of salvation. Jesus is the one w...

Oswald Chambers once wrote, “The most important aspect of Christianity is not the work we do, but the relationship we maintain (with God) and the surrounding influence and qualities produced by that relationship. That is all God asks us to give our attention to, and it is the one thing that is continually under attack.” What an amazing honor that Jesus would call us His friends. A true friend is a...

This past week we were reminded that Jesus will return for us. Jesus said “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you” (John 14:18), intending to mean the sending of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. But the truth is applicable to His Second Coming too! He won’t leave us here. He will return for us! But He will return for us to take us to be where He is...for eternity. When Jesus returns our...

When we are children we are given the promise that at the end of the day our parent or parents will return home for us. We long for that moment in time. We look for that moment in time because they are not with us and we want to see them so badly. We’ve remembered the wonderful truth that Jesus is with us always and with us always to the end of the age. But this week we’ll remember that the Lord,...

Sometimes we get hung up in our faith, believing that Jesus came to us in Baptism and as we’ll look at in the coming weeks, He’ll come again to take us home to Himself. Somehow, we miss that He is with us not just in our faith walk as we discovered in midweek, but furthermore He is with us when our faith walk goes awry, when our lives are difficult. What a blessing to know that in this world that...

This week we’ve been reminded that Jesus comes to us in the living and active Word of God. We were reminded that while He walked this earth and spoke His Word 2000 years ago, we can know and trust that He continues to be present in our lives through that very same Word 2000 years hence. More than that however, today we remember that Jesus is not just with us in His Word, but He is also with us in...

The truth of “God With Us” is absolutely mind-blowing to be sure. Couple that with the fact that He didn’t just come to us long ago, but He willingly and intentionally comes to us in our day and time. Granted it seems different than Him walking this earth and speaking to us in our hearing, but Jesus nonetheless walks among us and speaks to us through His Spirit-filled Word! He didn’t come 2000 yea...

While we accept it willingly, one of the more difficult concepts for the Disciples to wrap their brain around in this idea of “The Incarnation” of Jesus, was that Jesus was actually God...in the flesh. They saw the “flesh guy”. They saw the human being, the Rabbi, the Friend, the Mentor. But they had trouble seeing that He was literally God. Not so for us! We see all that He did and the fact that...
