Romans 8 “Therefore there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” because you are/we are free from the law of sin and death and are alive in Christ. [Rom 8:1] They who accept the free gift of salvation can say with Paul; I am now righteous because of the sacrifice of Christ […]
Romans 1 to 4: The gas gauge in our cars registers full or empty. It is our reminder that fuel is needed for our car to work properly and we trust or have faith that those gauges are accurate. Faith is the key to being stranded or not. In Hebrews chapter 11, Abraham is listed […]
Acts 28 John Jacob Astor believed that the Titanic was unsinkable, yet he and his wealth are at the bottom of the ocean because of his stubborn pride and lack of foresight—the Titanic only carried enough lifeboats for half of the passengers—Astor was not saved.
