JESUS SAVES

Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior.

Heavenly Father, We pray for all those non-believers who feel that they have the world all figured out, and who attempt to do life on their own.  We pray for all those who live Godless lives praying to empty non-existent Gods.  You alone are the way the truth and the life.  You alone are God.  You alone are all powerful, sovereign, and almighty.  We pray that all your children will of their own fr...

1 Peter 3:3-4New International Version 3  Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.  4  Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.

Matthew 11:28-30 “29  Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am [ f ]gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  30  For My yoke  is  easy and My burden is light.”

Matthew 18:21-35 The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant 21  Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” 22  Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.[ g ] 23  “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.  24  As he began the se...

We will leave this world as naked as we entered it.  No earthly possessions will go with us.  We will leave our money, our possessions, our cars, our family, our pets, our estates, our jobs, and we will have lost nothing and we will have gained everything!  We will be in the presence of God and reunited with our family members who have gone before us.  Imagine the questions we will finally get ans...

Romans 8:26-27 26  In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.  27  And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.

Many are aware of the miraculous conversion of the Apostle Paul, who went from hunting down, enslaving, and murdering Christians, to becoming the super Apostle who planted over 14 and wrote almost a quarter of the New Testament.  Paul dedicated his life to Christ, and died a martyr. However, we have had some pretty amazing conversions in modern times.  

Will my salvation in Christ be a hall pass to sin? No.  A hall pass is permission given in advance.  Jesus does not give us permission to sin.  As saved Christians we will always struggle with sin, but we will avoid indulging in sin.  Christ covers our struggle with sin.  For those who proclaim that they are saved Christians, but they indulge in sin, they run the risk that they are demonstrating e...

There, is no self-interest, self development, or greater self edification, than the transformation that takes place when you are born-again in Christ.  All too many people put off what is most important until tomorrow, only to find out that there is no tomorrow!  Do not take for granted the time you have, to be saved in Jesus.  If not now…when?  Jesus says to you: “But seek first the kingdom of Go...

It is Christmas time again! Culturally speaking, it has become a tradition where many take time out of their routine to end the calendar year with a celebration of friends and family. Spiritually speaking, it is a time where Christians commemorate the prophesied birth of their lord and savior, Jesus Christ. 700 years before the birth of Christ, the Hebrew Prophet Isaiah prophesied the details and...

A non-denominational traditional Christian Church Service designed especially for podcast listeners.

~ Matthew 1:18-25 Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. And her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly. But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a drea...

Is the devil real or a metaphor for evil? The devil is real.  He is an angel who attempted to rebel against God.  His angelic name was Lucifer.  But when he was cast out of Heaven for his rebellion, he became known by his function: Satan = adversary / enemy.    Satan is a coward.  Satan and his demons (fallen angels) have a mission which is to hurt the heart of God by tempting Gods children to sin...

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” – Matthew 5:8   How do I pray? From the heart!  It does not have to be fancy.  Just faith filled.  We pray to God in the form of thanking, adoring, and worshipping Him, confessing our sins, and apologizing to Him, and asking Him to supply for our needs.  Like any responsible father, God answers our prayers as per His plan, and His will in ou...

“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.” – Matthew 5:7   Are Heaven and Hell real places? Yes.  Heaven and Hell are real places.  They are destinations.  Our souls are eternal and when our bodies die, our eternal souls will go before the Lord for judgement.  Those who are justified in Christ go to God.  Those who rejected Christ shall go to eternal damnation without God.  To do no...

What is the deal with sin? Sin is any wrongdoing that offends God or hurts the heart of God.  Sin puts our eternal souls at risk.  All sin is equally offensive to God.  There is no grading system.  It is all equally bad.  We sin through actions, inactions, thoughts, and words.  All sin is forgivable by God if we are saved in Christ.  Accept one.  The sin of going to our graves rejecting Christ.  R...

Uh…Justification in Jesus? When we are saved (aka) born again in Jesus, through His Grace we are instantaneously justified.  By way of justification, we are immediately moved from a state of sin to a state of Grace, from a state of injustice to a state of justice, from a state of death in sin, to a state of life in God’s righteousness.  We become part of his kingdom right now, and when our bodies...

⁠In Matthew 16:18, Jesus says:⁠ “And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Most people think of the church as a building, a place where people go to worship.  The church Jesus spoke of is the body of believers.  Christ is the head, and the members of the church are like the arms and legs of the body who do the work...

What does it mean to yield to God? To yield is to endeavor to resist our sinfulness and choose the Holy Spirit’s direction in our lives .  In other words, we do what God advises us to do, rather than what we want to do.  We turn our back on temptation and doubt and follow God’s righteous direction.  To yield to God is to give right of way to God.  The reason this is an endeavor is that we as human...

To repent means to “change direction” from walking by yourself away fromGod to the direction of walking with Christ.  Before we can repent, we must admit that we are sinners and that we cannot save ourselves or earn our way into Heaven.  Jesus was famous for saying to sinners, “Follow me”. An addict or an alcoholic, cannot seek treatment until they first admit that they have an addiction problem. ...
