Just who is a Christian? Is there a litmus test we might use to determine whether a person is truly a child of God?
Who Is a Christian? Part 3
Who Is a Christian, Part 2
A Christian is a person who confesses Christ as Lord and believes in the bodily resurrection of Jesus.
Who Is a Christian, Part 1
One of the questions the evangelical church must be able to answer with strong conviction and with strong biblical support is “Who Is a Christian?”
House on a Rock
Where there is no obedience to the commands of Christ – no life-application of the truths taught by the word of God – then there never was a salvation experience. This takes us to the very core of why there is a plan of redemption in the first place. God is perfect and complete in every way. He needs nothing from us. In fact, He doesn’t even need us.
House on a Rock
When Jesus refers to the rock in Matthew 7 (and again in Luke 6) to whom or what is He making reference?
Blessed People
Maybe the greatest sermon ever is the Sermon on the Mount, preached by Jesus and recorded by Matthew in chapters five – seven of his gospel. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus describes the characteristics, the lifestyle, and the behaviors of those who have been blessed by the grace of God.
Forgiveness, Part 2
Forgiveness is such a challenging concept that the only one who can truly succeed at it is God. Forgiveness on our part requires that we submit to the authority and power of God. Only by doing so can we truly forgive.
Forgiveness
I am convinced that forgiveness is an attribute that belongs uniquely to God. Only God can do it. There is no other power in the Universe that can forgive. It is that hard. Only He can heal such glaring wounds that tear our hearts and bruise our souls. We are powerless against them.
The Kingdom of God, Part 2
Even though we are in such close proximity to God, because He is Spirit, we would never know He was there apart from revelation. That revelation comes by way of the incarnation of God in the person of Jesus Christ. He is the doorway into the kingdom.
