     | 317 views

    It is true that God is gracious, but it is equally true that God is just and righteous too. This was perfectly demonstrated by Jesus when He paid the penalty for the sins of all mankind on the cross of Calvary. Those who believe on the Lord Jesus will enjoy His grace and live in His righteousness.

    We read in Jeremiah 9:24, “If any want to boast, they should boast that they know and understand me, because my love is constant, and I do what is just and right. These are the things that please me. I, the LORD, have spoken.”(GNB) If anyone in this world would like to boast about something, he ...read more

    Gethsemane Series

     | 1,264 views

    The cross wasn’t a tragic mistake. It didn’t “happen” to Jesus. He wasn’t a victim of circumstance. Jesus died because He deliberately chose to lay down His life – and he made that choice at Gethsemane. The war was not over, but the battle was won at Gethsemane.

    September 02, 2023 Today we are going to conclude the Gospels section of our series with Gethsemane. The Passover meal was over. Judas had left the group to make arrangements for the betrayal of Jesus. Now as the little party made their way to the Mount of Olives, Jesus made a startling ...read more
