Good Morning, and Merry Christmas to friends of God and disciples of Jesus, the beloved Son of God.  I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation. Romans 1.16. The gospel of Christ is the message of salvation from our sins, Luke 24,46,47. It is for the penitent, Matthew 4.17, all who have eyes that see and ears that hear the seriousness of their betraying the Father and mourn, Matthew 5.4, and hunger and thirst for righteousness, Matthew 5.6. They embrace the good news of the gospel that is offered in Christ, those who believe and confess openly that Christ is indeed the savior sent by the Father from above, Romans 10.9-10, and are eager to be buried with Christ in baptism so their sins might be forgiven, Acts 2.38. For the rest of their lives they live in newness of life, Romans 6.4 watching and waiting for the return of Christ and their eternal life with God, 2 Peter 3.10-13; 1 John 3.2-3.

Good Morning,  This time of the year the economy is booming because of money we spend buying gifts for family, friends and loved ones. But the best things in life are free and the best gift ever was freely given by God and His beloved Son, Jesus. King of all kings, Lord of all lords who stands knocking at the door of man's heart waiting to come in. I am. not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation, Romans 1.16. Pay it forward, take the free gift of the gospel to someone today, you may just save a life.

Good Morning,  According to the scriptures, God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. 1 John 1.5. And Jesus, the beloved Son of God, and son of man, confesses that He is the light of the world and whoever chooses to follow Him will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life. John 8.12. This Jesus also confesses that He is the way, the truth and the life and no one can come to the Father except through Him. John 14.6. And yet men reject His light preferring darkness instead, because they think sins are hidden in the darkness, and exposed in the light. But sin cannot be covered up or hidden from God. Wake up, America, while there is still time.

Good Morning,  Because of the Father's great love for us, we should be called God's children, and so we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him. May we always allow the Lord to direct our hearts to the love of God and to the steadfastness of Christ.  See 1 John 3.1; Thessalonians 3.5.

Good Morning,  Disappointments may come as we travel in this broken world, trials and temptations are sure to raise their ugly heads, but those who have obeyed the gospel and are grounded firmly and deep in the savior's love have a refuge in time of trouble, and His name is Jesus. So remain strong in your faith and courageous in your fight against the evils of the world for they will soon end, and not separate us from our God. Turn your eyes upon Jesus and He will help you endure. There is a way that seems right unto man, but its end is the way of death, but the steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way. Proverbs 16.25; Psalms 37.23.
