The Fullness Of God

…that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God.                                                                                Ephesians 3:19b As January draws to…

The Knowledge Of The Truth

This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the testimony given at the proper time.                                                                                                        1…

Let It Be Known

Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through Him (Jesus) forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you, and through Him (Jesus) everyone who believes is freed from all things, from which you could not be freed through the Law of Moses.                                                                                                                Acts 13:38-39 In today’s passage, we see two foundational pillars…

Saving Knowledge

…nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified.                                                             …

In Accordance With Knowledge

Brethren, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God for them is for their salvation. For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not in accordance with knowledge. For not knowing about God’s righteousness and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for…

The Love Of God

…and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge…                                                                                                      Ephesians 3:19a Have you noticed that God’s Word makes statements that defy human logic and reason? Statements such as, “The last will be first and the first will be last” (Matthew 20:16), “whoever wishes to save his life…

Recognizable Christianity

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.                                                                                                                   John 13:34-35 We end the week…

Love Is The Fulfillment Of The Law

Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law. For this, “You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no…

The Absence Of Love

If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to…

The Litmus Test For Christian Authenticity

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love.                                                 …
