     | 412 views

    A woman of a low class barges into a Pharisee's home to plead for forgiveness from Jesus. He grants her the request. It shows that the common Jews desired the Messiah!

    Ang paksa ay kinuha mula mismo sa panalanging itinuro ng Panginoong Hesus sa Mateo 6:12, “And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.” Minsan iniisip ng ilan na sapat na ang minsang paghingi ng kapatawaran noong tayo ay naligtas — ngunit hindi iyon ang itinuturo ng Biblia.

     | 1,634 views

    Anything that causes us to turn our backs on the two great commandments–love God above all things and our neighbor as ourselves–is sin, and needs the healing power, the forgiving power of Christ.

    January 3, 2019 Tenth Day of Christmas According to one interpretation of the overused carol, The Twelve Days of Christmas, this tenth day is the one which adds “ten lords a leaping” to the list of gifts given us by our true love, Jesus Christ, who is the “partridge in a pear tree.” The ten lords, ...read more

     | 12,414 views

    In one word in the Greek, "Tetelestai!", Jesus proclaimed that his mission was finished. His death covered all our sins, and the pursuit of his mission to the end motivates us to pursue our God-given mission as we accept his forgiveness from the cross.

    You Shall Not Murder Series

    The Bible’s opening plotlines show the firstborn man, Cain, killing his brother Abel. Think of it: the firstborn person in the human race was a murderer.

In 2000, there were 128 reported homicides in Scotland. In 1960, the District of Columbia reported 81 murders. In 1991 ...read more
