To Abide Is to Act and to Do, in Accordance with the Lord Jesus Christ From a Reformed theological perspective, abiding in Christ’s word represents the fundamental process of truly belonging to God because it encompasses both the sovereign work of God and our responsive participation in that...
Strong and Gentle The popular portrayal of Jesus as perpetually meek and mild misrepresents the biblical account. Instead, Jesus demonstrates a profound combination of strength and gentleness, showing us that true power is not about aggression, but about controlled strength serving a higher...
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9 God’s faithfulness in forgiving sins is a fundamental promise throughout Scripture. As written in 1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to...
“While this “declarative” interpretation is an interesting angle, and I appreciate its attempt to resolve a theological puzzle, I find myself not fully convinced. My primary reasons stem from both the practical implications for the Church and, more importantly, the very character of Jesus...

’ — . And perhaps that’s why so few are on the narrow path, while so many follow the wide one. Too often, we rely on head knowledge rather than a humble heart that is open to God’s simple truths. Understanding grows when we keep it simple. Many of those who followed Jesus were not...
Jesus Tells It Like It Is Jesus never sugarcoats the truth. He speaks plainly about who He is and who we are. We are sinners. He is not. We are flawed. He is perfect. We are created. He is the Creator. For many Christians, John 3:16 is at the core of our faith: But what does it really mean...
