“To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.”— Romans 1:7
“To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.”— Romans 1:7 We are very apt to regard the apostolic saints as if they were “saints” in a more especial manner than the other children of God. All are “saints” whom God has called by His grace, and sanctified by His Spirit; but we are apt to look upon the apostles as extraordinary beings, scarcely subject to the same weaknesses and temptations as ourselves. Yet in so doing we are forgetful of this …
Come To The Cross
Come To The Cross The Bible declares, “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23 KJV). Because of sin, none of us can pay the price to enter heaven. Regardless of how many “good” works we do, we are still sinners by birth, unable to merit God’s favor. We have come short of God’s righteous standards. Thus, in order to enter heaven, we need God’s righteousness. The good news is that, through the finished crosswork of Jesus Christ on Calvary, we can be made “the righteousness of God in Christ” (2 Corinthians 5:21 KJV). …

When You’re Juggling Faith and Heartache~
When You’re Juggling Faith and Heartache~ It’s become more than apparent, that what faith appears to be to someone watching and what faith feels like to someone walking through it, can seem to be completely different and yet, in reality, be absolutely the same. In the wee morning of December 8th,2015, my heart stopped. Getting my world started again, – no matter how many times the clock ticks, or how many days go by, or how many times I flip the page on the calendar over to a new month, is still an ongoing, don’t-know-how-to-do-it, battle every single moment of …
Secure in Our Salvation
Secure in Our Salvation Many people struggle with uncertainty about their salvation. They do not understand that once they have received God’s free gift of Eternal Life and have been born into the family of God, there is no way that they can return to the position of being a lost and guilty sinner in the eyes of God. The very nature of the spiritual life that has been received, ETERNAL, and the Divine Source and Agent of that life, GOD, forbid drawing the conclusion that a saved person can ever again be lost. “And I give them eternal life, …
Genesis 41:4 4 The ugly and gaunt cows ate up the seven sleek and fat cows. Then Pharaoh awoke.
Genesis 41:4 4 The ugly and gaunt cows ate up the seven sleek and fat cows. Then Pharaoh awoke. Pharaoh’s dream has too often been my waking experience. My days of sloth have ruinously destroyed all that I had achieved in times of zealous industry; my seasons of coldness have frozen all the genial glow of my periods of fervency and enthusiasm; and my fits of worldliness have thrown me back from my advances in the divine life. I had need to beware of lean prayers, lean praises, lean duties, and lean experiences, for these will eat up the fat …
Peace of Mind in Perilous Times
Peace of Mind in Perilous Times Pete Garcia Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! ~ Isaiah 5:20 It used to be, that people didn’t need to lock their doors at night, or worry about someone stealing a bike from their front yard. You didn’t use to need to worry about your kids walking to the store by themselves, or just being out all day playing until dinner time. You didn’t need to worry about whether your government was …
Ennochous
Prophecy – Signs Monday, July 02, 2018 Pete Garcia The rapture is one of the most ridiculous concepts ever derived from the pages of Holy Scripture. Who actually believes that one day, all the Christians in the world will suddenly disappear? If the rapture is biblical, then why is the word rapture not in the bible? If the rapture as a theological doctrine is true, then why is it firmly niched in either the conspiracy theory or science fiction section of every major bookstore? If the rapture is true, then why don’t more churches teach it? If the rapture is true, then why …
