Prayer And The Chronically Unhappy

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 21, 2010

For Reformation Sunday, October 1987: Job in the Old Testament and Luther in the Reformation Era were chronically unhappy people, but used that as a form of spiritual energy to drive them toward creative achievement and an honest personal faith.

It looks as though some people are just born to be unhappy. There are some people who are going to approach nearly everything with a complaint or a gripe, who are going to make a personal issue out of everything. Nothing is quite good enough, nothing quite satisfies. There are folks whose ...read more

See: Genesis 37:8-11 He clearly dreamed this dream and it was revealed unto him that one day he would sit in a prominent seat somewhere. Note: I personally believe that in the Old Testament they ...read more

Atonement

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Mar 8, 2016

The Atonement for our sins provided by Jesus on the cross is a once and for all fulfillment of the Old Testament atonement which was temporary. Christ's atonement is pivotal in understanding salvation by grace and faith alone in Jesus Christ.

The cross is the logo of Christianity - the cross was the great intersection of God with humanity! One of the great provisions of the cross is the atonement. Let's read about atonement in Romans 3:21-26 (Please open your Bibles and follow along as I read from God's Holy Word) I was looking online ...read more

Confirmed By God
