El desafío de Paul de NUNCA VOLVER A IR ALLÍ. No abrace las obras, la ley, la tradición, la ceremonia como un camino de salvación, confíe solo en Cristo por Gracia a través de la Fe. Mantente libre, nunca vuelvas a la esclavitud. Pablo es IMPRESIONANTE en estos versículos y dice cosas a las que incluso los cristianos sólidos reaccionan. Habla de los que se alejan de Cristo, de los que deciden salvarse a su manera. SIN EMBARGO TAMBIÉN celebra la singularidad de la vida en el Espíritu, donde confiamos en Cristo y vivimos una vida de amor por las obras.
You Are Alive in a Dead World (1 Pet 1:3)
As a Christian you are alive in a dead world.
Amie
Raised in a Christian home, God was at work in Amie gently and gradually drawing her to Himself.
Chosen by Grace to Grow & Obey (1 Pet 1:2)
We are chosen by grace to grow and live obediently.
You belong to God, but live in a foreign land (1 Pet 1:1)
Do you know how to thrive when life is difficult? The world is full of danger, but we can be secure in God because of Christ.
Standing Firm In a Foreign Land (1 Peter Intro)
Do you know what it is like to be staying in a foreign country, not know anyone, not speak the language and experience hostility? The believers Peter writes in his first letter did. So Peter exhorts them to be strong in grace- to live by grace and truth, and charges them to stand firm as strangers in a foreign land; Hey, the USA is NOT our first citizenship; we’re actually on enemy turf right now. This is foreign soil for the Christian – so what should we do?
Essential Truths for Healthy Relationships
All healthy marriages, families and friendships grow and change and so do all healthy churches–all healthy churches grow and change. It is often growth and healthy changes that keep us dependent on Christ. But we are not above the drift toward externals nor beyond staleness. So before that happens, before we fall into unhealthy routines, improper speech, unloving actions, I want to have us test our relationships as a church, a family of families, and individual Christians in the church to see where you are.
Danny
Watch Danny describe how Christ changed his life
Some Things to Look Forward to (Dan 12:4-13)
As Daniel wraps up his amazing letter, God also gives Daniel, Israel and us today some things to look forward to–the good stuff. In the final verses of chapter 12, the Lord gives us some answers through some angels who ask the same kind of questions we do. They want to know what is coming. Even with all that has already been revealed in Daniel, there is still more to know, and in the closing chapter there are some truths to look forward to.
Cliffs Notes on Eschatology (Dan 12:1-3)
You are going to get a shortcut to the end times, a quick way to understand eschatology, the study of last things. Daniel gives us an overview of the end times in Daniel chapter 12. Daniel will bring clarity to an area most Christians are fuzzy about.
The A-List of Warmongers from the Future (Dan 11:36-45)
God made it easy for us to believe His future plan for Israel and us by making over a hundred detailed prophecies that all came true within 250 years of Daniel’s writing (the immediate future) so that we would not struggle with the rest of the chapter, which predicts a time that is even future to us (the eschatological future).
The A-List of Warmongers from the Past (Dan 11:1-35)
No matter how hard people try to put an end to human conflict, peace continues to elude our grasp. Why is that? James put his finger on the human reason. Observe what he says in James 4:1-2a, “What is the source of quarrels and conflicts among you? Is not the source your pleasures that wage war in your members? You lust and do not have; so you commit murder. And you are envious and cannot obtain; so you fight and quarrel.”
The Spiritual Warfare of Angels, Demons, and the Saints (Dan 10)
The Bible speaks more about angels and demons than true Bible-believing Christians do, or Bible-believing churches teach. I am thankful we have come to a chapter in the Bible which will help us understand the truth about angels and demons.
