Here is the foundational cure for the evils of racism in human society, faith in Christ as definitive for racial identification.
07/27/21
Faith is a living, bold trust in God’s grace, so certain of God’s favor that it would risk death a thousand times trusting in it.
07/22/21
Jesus did not need a single act of mercy to get him started on the road to mercy, his essence was by nature merciful.
07/14/21
God’s love is axiomatic; it just is. It’s a truism without a logical explanation.
07/13/21
But Jesus didn’t see it that way. He saw his arrest not as the kingdom’s program being thwarted but as it being “fulfilled.”

This opening section of Ephesians is a virtual treasure trove of gospel promises, praising God for who He is and the abundant blessings He pours out upon His saints.

06/26/21
Take away the communal aspect, take away the communal gathering around Christ’s body and blood, and the Christian will begin to suffer a malnutrition of faith.
06/24/21
“Poverty of spirit” is not an ethical value we strive for. It is an act of God’s mercy spoken to the deepest recesses of our soul when it’s overwhelmed by God’s grace.
