Our Salvation
The World is Watching-Jack Blake
Monday, August 26, 2024Good Morning,
Disciples of Christ, beware for as we travel through this pilgrim land with our eyes fixed on our heavenly home, the world is watching and our adversary, the devil, is walking about to see who he can devour. Therefore let us remember to walk humbly with our God and conduct our lives according to His will, letting our light so shine that they will see our good works and glorify our Heavenly Father. Matthew 5.16. Let it be known that we have been buried with Christ in baptism, after crucifying the flesh with all its passions and desires. Galatians 5.24. The world is watching.
Only Through Jesus-Jack Blake
Friday, August 23, 2024GOOD MORNING,
It is only through Christ Jesus and His death on the cross, His burial in a borrowed tomb and His resurrection from death by the Father, that we can have redemption and forgiveness of our sins. It is the power in His blood that washes away our every sin, cleanses our soul and makes us whole again. Thank You, Father, for Your deliverance out of sin's darkness and into the Kingdom of Your Son and His love. See Colossians 1.12-14.
Turn to God-Jack Blake
Monday, July 29, 2024Dear disciple,
Be strong and of a good courage, fear not for I am an unchanging God whose love, mercy, and grace will always be with you who remain. faithful to Me. I am your refuge and strength, a very present help in time of danger. Proverbs 46.1. When all else fails, when friends and family turn against you, turn to Me and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. My yoke is easy and My burden is light. See Matthew 11.28. When everyone else turns you away, Jesus will take you in. Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all else will be added unto you. Matthew 6.33.
The Cure for Sin and Death-Keith Greer
Thursday, July 25, 2024Good morning.
Today we will remember that all men have a serious disease that only one person had a remedy for. That disease is SIN, Romans 3:23. The result of that particular disease is death, Romans 6:23. Mankind with all their human wisdom and wonderful medical knowledge have no solution for this disease. Why? Human remedies are of no help with this spiritual illness. Only the sacrifice of the Son of God gave mankind true hope of finding a way out of this terrible situation, Romans 5:8-9; 1 Peter 1:18-19. Yet, sadly so many don’t know they have this disease. Others will not accept the truth that only by applying that blood to their sin stained soul can one be redeemed and have true salvation. What can we do to help our fellow man? Take the message of the true gospel of Jesus Christ to every person, Matthew 28:18-20. This is the power to save—the message of the cross, Romans 1:16. Why not humble ourselves and look to Him who died in order to give true meaning to this life and that one to come! Open your heart today and mediate on His precious words of life, John 6:63. God leaves that choice to each of us, Romans 6:16-18. Please consider the value of your soul and terrible price to be paid to reject His gracious offer, 2 Corinthians 5:10-11. Time is on God’s side not ours.
True Worship-Jack Blake
Thursday, June 06, 2024Good Morning,
According to the scripture, the hour is coming and now is when, TRUE worshippers will worship the Father in Spirit and in TRUTH. For God is seeking such to worship Him, for God is Spirit. John 4.23-24. So there must be also false or UNTRUE worship that is unacceptable to the Father. In Matthew 15.8-9, Jesus said people draw near to Him with their mouth, but their heart is far from Him and they worship Him with vain worship, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men. And in Acts 17.23, Paul told the Athenians, they ignorantly worship God, ignorant of the truth about worship. So be careful how you worship our God and be absolutely sure you are worshipping God in an acceptable manner to Him according to His word and not the word of man, otherwise your worship is vain and God will reject it. Read, study and hear the "God breathed" word of God, because as Matthew 7.21 points out; "Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord shall enter the Kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. On that great day of judgement by the Lord there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, because of how we worship God here on earth. Matthew 8.12.
