Some preachers today offer weak, watered-down proclamations in the name of the gospel.
They tell you to believe, but they don’t tell you to repent.
They tell you there’s a Heaven, but they don’t tell you there’s a Hell.
And they tell you there’s forgiveness, but they don’t tell you there’s repentance.
If we don’t include those things, then it isn’t the gospel. We cannot edit the gospel according to what we like or don’t like. It’s for us to share it as God gave it. Otherwise, we strip the gospel of its power and effectiveness.

Not once in the Bible does it say to worry about it, stress over it, or figure it out.
But over and over it clearly says to
Trust God.

Humble yourselves, therefore under God’s mighty hand. 1 Peter 5:6. Jehovah Elohim, Creator of all things for all time, we bow before You in awe & wonder. We praise Your holy name, & seek forgiveness for all the ways that we have grieved You. Please strengthen us today, we pray.🙏🏻

In a world of confusion, how do we pray for our children?
1. Salvation in Christ.
2. Wisdom in thinking.
3. Discernment in living
4. Selflessness in serving.
5. Joy in suffering.
6. Mercy in acting.
7. Kindness in responding.
8. Hope in enduring.
9. Boldness in standing.

When asked, 'What is more important: Prayer or Reading the Bible?' I ask, 'What is more important: Breathing in or Breathing out?'

Philippians is known as the happiest book in the Bible, yet it was written in prison.
Moral of the story: don’t let your circumstances steal your joy.

There is no form of sinfulness to which you are addicted which Christ cannot remove.

Kieran Perkins’ argument is simply absurd. If even one female swimmer is disadvantaged by a biological male then that is one too many. As already happened with the Lia Thomas case. #qanda
