God Forgives – Psalm 103:1-5
1 My soul, bless the Lord, and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 2 My soul, bless the Lord, and do not forget all his benefits. 3 He forgives all your iniquity; he heals all your diseases. 4 He redeems your life from the Pit; he crowns you with faithful love and compassion. 5 He satisfies you with good things; your youth is renewed like the eagle.
Christ/Messiah is Our Only Hope

Have you taken the time to listen to the world around you? The popular buzz of the day is that the world is coming to an END. Well; we should take a moment or two and think about the lack of godly wisdom associated with that statement. When we decide to take a look at the ‘End times’, we are looking directly at God who; is the Creator and the Sustainer of the world and we have to consider that God knows the answer. Mankind with his sciences has no clue and neither does the emotional ‘bark’ of ignorant people know.

Yet, the children of God who have trusted the gospel! By the way, the gospel is simple to trust, even a child of five years old can trust the gospel. 1 Corinthians 15: 3 For I pass on to you as most important what I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures. All people who TRUST the Word of God regarding the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ are saved. You who have trusted Jesus, know that you KNOW. Those of you who have not trusted have NO confidence or trust in Jesus.

When you trust the Creator your soul will respond to your heart’s personal request—My soul, bless the Lord, and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Your soul will rejoice at all of the benefits associated with your trust in the Messiah. He forgives all your iniquity; he heals all your diseases. Trusting God removes all doubt and you know like all children of God that Jesus has redeemed (purchased) with His Blood your life from the pit (hell, eternal damnation). Most importantly, while He wore the crown of thorns for (you), He places on your head a crown of faithful love and compassion and He satisfies your new life in Him with goodness.

Well, if you choose to reject God’s message, your world will come to an end (not the kind of end that is currently communicated around town) but this one—John 3:18 Those who trust in him are not judged; those who do not trust have been judged already, in that they have not trusted in the one who is God’s only and unique Son (Jesus). The judgment of God is already in place, and this is why the people who say that the world is coming to an end, say what they say because they understand the guilt and their lack of trust in God, He alone is the Creator and Sustainer of the World, He is not sustainer of the human viewpoints and systems of the ungodly men and women of the world who by personal choice live religiously in it.

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 203 Luke 21:7   –   So they asked Him, saying, “Teacher, but when will these things be? And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place?” Matthew 24:3 – Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be?

And what will be the sign when all these things will be fulfilled?” Jesus, the Christ of God/Messiah Yesterday we looked briefly at the First coming of the LORD Jesus, born of the virgin Mary, suffered and crucified, killed by the power of sin of which we all had and have a part in. He rose from this death; He is alive again . The apostle Paul writes, “For I deliver to you first of all that which I also received that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 169 Luke 14:7-14 - So He told a parable to those who were invited, when He noted how they chose the best places, saying to them: “When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in the best place, lest one more honorable than you be invited by him; “and he who invited you and him come and say to you, ‘Give place to this man,’ and then you begin with shame to take the lowest place. “But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may say to you, ‘Friend, go up higher.’ Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you. “For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. Then He also said to him who invited Him, “When you give a dinner or a supper, do not ask your friends, your brothers, your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they also invite you back, and you be repaid. “But when you give a fea

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 161.1 SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:   Luke 12:1-5 There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. “Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.” Jesus, the Christ of God/Messiah An excerpt from yesterday’s devotional: In our passage, the point of the LORD is not that of being a newscaster but placing the death of these people beyond human judgment, in fact; Jesus does not look at the death of human beings as we do. All humans, past present and future will die a ph
