Man, Salvation and Life
Sinful humanity may be saved from the penalty of eternal death and receive eternal life instead, solely by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ, apart from human merit, works, or ceremonies. Atonement for sins, with its attendant promise of eternal life, comes through Christ’s death and resurrection on our behalf and is received in human experience by faith and repentance.
Repentance
All of us have sinned and will sin again (Rom.3:23) therefore all of us need to repent of our sins and ask God to change us into the Godly nature that Jesus Christ had.
Sunday vs. The Sabbath Day
By the beginning of the second century the church of Rome had begun to migrate to “Sunday” church services rather than the 7th day Sabbath day.
Colossians 2:16 and The Sabbath Day
Colossians 2:16-17” Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come: but the body is of Christ.”
How We Got Our Bible
98 % of the world’s population has a Bible translated in their own language. The Bible is the world’s best selling book and also the book most stolen.
Shepherd Stories
As a shepherd I often think about our Lamb of God. He raises us, takes care of us, doctors us, feeds us, gives us the physical and spiritual medicines we need, He protects us from that roaring lion Satan.
The Feasts of God and His Salvation Plan
God has an amazing plan to restore the relationship that was broken in the Garden and enjoy life eternal as a part of God’s family. Through a series of annual biblical festivals God reveals in a concrete manner how He intends to save us and the rest of mankind.
The Immortal Soul
Mankind was created mortal, not immortal so understanding the Biblical view and definition of “soul” is vital to our understanding of our salvation in Jesus.
