Built on Love and Forgiveness
Our life is built on Love and Forgiveness— in the reverence of God.
When you Love— you must also forgive.
It is only when we forgive that we begin to Love more1 and grow increasingly more in the goodness of God.
Forgiveness is the most important act of Love.
An act of Forgiveness is more pleasing and agreeable to God than any sacrifice.
Only a life of Love and Forgiveness can clear all the mess of sins we commit daily— because Love and Forgiveness pleases God to show HIS Great Mercy and forgive our many sins.
1. Forgiveness is not an easy act of Love. So when you perform the difficult act of Forgiveness, you receive abund

Christian Love- Christian Life
Our life begins to live1 when we begin to Love.
Make Love a ruling principle of your daily life.
Let all your deeds proceed out of Love and Reverence for God.
For without God, there is no Love; without Love, there is no life— no living.
1. Christ gave us the Commandment of Love, to live our life. It is only through Love that our life comes to Perfection in Christ.
Our life will never come to Perfection in this mortal world— however, our life must continue to live on the path of Perfection— to enter into Eternal Life.
This will be annoying to most of you but please listen:
I did not want to be one of those Christians who sound like I'm yelling or going crazy but I feel compelled on a huge level. It's important you all know Jesus is returning sooner than we think. Extremely soon. I know the majority of you do not believe it one bit or perhaps you feel no concern because you don't understand what it is going to be like, but that is how He is going to catch you off guard. Even the Bible, 2 Peter 3:3-4 says, "3 Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. 4 They will say, “Where
When I was a little girl, I was raised as a Christian; raised by good, Christian parents and a grandmother with strong love for the Lord. I didn’t really understand it all, being just a child, but I still knew right from wrong. I still understood the basic concept of going to church and listening to worship music, and knowing that God and Jesus are good, and that He loves us. But as a girl I of course didn’t fully understand like I should have.
For several years I was good; I tried to resist peer pressure, but eventually I cracked under that pressure and gave in to what my friends were doing. It wasn’t so bad at the time, an
“No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.” [1 Corinthians 10:13]
You're going to want to give up. But you can't.
I am still a growing Child of God, who has much to learn, and I definitely haven't gone through the trials as heavy and intense as some of you, but I have had plenty of wars waged in my mind and in my heart within the few months that I've been a Christian. And sometimes it gets so hard to stay focused and control my though
Jesus wasn’t white.
When I say that, I’m not talking about art, da Vinci can keep The Last Supper up on his wall.
Turns out it’s part of human nature to make our God look like us in our minds—you can find paintings of Jesus in all skin tones.
So when I say Jesus wasn’t white,
it’s not a critique of art,
it’s a critique of the church.
If a poor middle-eastern man came into the church would we welcome him?
Would we recognize Jesus in the homeless men on the street?
Would we treat Him like we would our white upper class evangelicals?
If this man told us to love our neighbor, that it was hard for the ri

The Results of Insecurity
Psalms 143:8
We've already seen some of the areas where insecurity shows up. Now we need to turn our attention to its effects.
To start, insecure people have difficulty establishing good, lasting relationships. They simply cannot see how they could add value to anyone else's life. This is a tragic loss, because every single one of us needs deep and meaningful friendships to help us grow.
Also, men and women with insecurity
How far I have fallen!
The Lord's not forgotten
the sins committed knowingly!
If I could count them all,
I'd certainly be appalled
at all the marks against me!
Oh, yes! The Accuser loves to see
me up and run and flee
from God, thinking I am damned!
But, lo! You see that cross there?
The tomb's empty, I could swear!
'Tis Christ, holding out his gracious hand!
I have taken it! So, what now?
Imitate Christ, of course! But how?
Oh, where can I even look?
Doh! It's so obvious!
How could I be so dubious?
Where to start is in the Good Book!
Yes! It's becoming clear now!
I have seen the light!
I know the Gospel and how

The High Cost of Wavering Faith
Deuteronomy 1:19-40
God has given believers personalities, abilities, and spiritual gifts which will equip them to accomplish His specific plans for their lives. But each one must choose to step out in faith and obedience. At times the Lord challenges us to do something that seems beyond our ability, but if we back off, we’ll miss His awesome blessings.
Let’s learn from the Israelites who made several choices that led
Blessed are those who are orphaned for they will be part of a everlasting family.
Blessed are those who are defenseless for they have armor made by God.
Blessed are those who their carry the crosses for they will be carried to the heavenly gates.
