    Do You Get It?

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 11, 2023
     | 1,437 views

    There is nothing that Jesus cannot do. But we can only get the message if we don’t let ourselves be distracted by trivia, and if our relationship with God is healthy.

    One of the reasons people loved to listen to Jesus was that he talked about things they knew about, scenes and events from their everyday lives.

    Opening illustration: During a NASA space shuttle launch, you will hear the phrase “negative return.” It is a phrase that is part of the abort protocol. It means the shuttle has reached the point and speed at which a return to the launch site is impossible. No astronaut wants to be at “negative ...read more

[The Scriptures have powerfully argued that eternal salvation is by faith in Christ and not by good works, heritage, or law keeping.] ...read more
