Holy Spirit (389)
  1. Christ has accomplished for us that which we could not do for ourselves – he has made us into his image by cleansing us of our sins and making us alive for eternity.

  4. Christian peace is not the absence of problems, but it is the presence of God amid our pain and sorrows.
  5. Dr. Paulson discusses contemporary rejections of Martin Luther.
  6. Many of us have experienced what it feels like to wait and to remain patient this year. This Advent, we are reminded of how the saints before us experienced similar feelings of uncertainty, need, and hopeful expectation as they awaited - both faithfully and unfaithfully - for God to fulfill his promises.

  8. Bearing fruit is wonderful, but you do not stay a Christian through fruit-bearing. You bear fruit and are growing because you are united to Christ.
  9. God is holy, nothing I say or do or pray is going to make God any more or less holy. So what are we praying when we say, “hallowed be your name”?

  11. The following is an excerpt from “The Christian Life: Cross or Glory” written by Steven A. Hein (1517 Publishing, 2015).
  12. Good works do not make a Christian, do not secure the grace of God and blot out our sins, they do not merit heaven.
