The Restorer of Lost Hopes
In a world of trials, hope is not a natural posture; it’s something God’s people choose to cultivate. ROMANS 5:1-5 1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; Not only is Christ the source of genuine hope; He is also the restorer of lost hope. …
“We dwell in him.” 1 John 4:13
Do you want a house for your soul? Do you ask, “What is the purchase?” It is something less than proud human nature will like to give. It is without money and without price. Ah! you would like to pay a respectable rent! You would love to do something to win Christ? Then you cannot have the house, for it is “without price.” Will you take my Master’s house on a lease for all eternity, with nothing to pay for it, nothing but the ground-rent of loving and serving him forever? Will you take Jesus and “dwell in him?” See, …

And now let us consider His work on the cross and what has been accomplished by it. But who is able to speak worthily of this theme of all themes? Who can fathom the solemn yet blessed fact, the death of the Son of God on the cross? What tongue or pen can describe the sad, yet glorious truth, that the Just One died for the unjust, that Christ died for the ungodly! He who knew no sin was made sin for us! And what human mind can estimate the wonderful results of His work on the cross! Some Christians …

9 Unbiblical Statements Christians Believe
By Shane Pruitt There are many things that Jesus-following, church-going, Bible-believing Christians believe that are completely unbiblical. One of the greatest gifts that God gave mankind was the Holy Bible because the Bible is literally God revealing Himself, and communicating Himself to mankind in written word. Anything and everything that we know about God comes from these Holy Scriptures, and they contain the totality of what we need to know about becoming a Christian, and everything that we need to know about living the Christian life. Orthodox Christianity teaches that the Bible was inspired and authored by the Holy Spirit …

Evidence That The Church Began at Pentecost in Acts 2
By Dr. Arnold Fruchtenbaum Ariel Ministries Q. What is the biblical evidence that the Church began at Pentecost in Acts 2? A. The evidence comes in four passages of Scripture. The first passage that deals with the beginning of the universal church is Colossians 1:18: And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. The point of this verse is that the Church is the Body of the Messiah. The second passage that deals with the beginning of the universal church …
By Grace Through Faith
Reflections For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them. (Eph. 2:8-10) The relationship between grace, faith, and our works, is given in this passage. In short, we are saved BY grace, THROUGH faith, UNTO good works. If we alter this relationship we are in danger of creating a false gospel; a false Christianity. It is a fact that …
The Power of Love
God says we are worth redeeming, and He asks us to approach others with the same mindset. 1 CORINTHIANS 13:4-6 4 Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, 5 does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, 6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; Today’s verses teach that love “does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth” (1 Corinthians 13:6). This means believers aren’t to dwell on the harm others …
