Respect for God’s Discipline

Passage

Hebrews 12:3-11

Prayer

Dear Father,

Help me to keep my eyes on Jesus. Despite the hostility poured on him by sinners, he obeyed you, even to the point of death.

Help me submit to your discipline, for I know that it assures me that I am your legitimate child, not just a slave.

Help me to respect your discipline, as from a heavenly Father, even more than discipline I received from my earthly father.

Help me bear up under the painful aspects of your discipline, understanding that it yields the fruit of righteousness.

Teach me to rely on you and trust you, as a small child does a father. Let me become as a little child, that I may enter your kingdom!

In the name of Jesus I ask. Amen.

Jesus Will Not Reject You

04/03/2017 04/03/2017 Daily Wisdom

JOHN 6:37 LB 37 But some will come to me--those the Father has given me-- and I will never, never reject them. People may reject you. But Jesus won't. Jesus died for sinners. He loves them and will help them -- if only they will come to Him. Jesus didn't come to condemn us, but to help us. Think of the Bible account of the woman caught in adultery. JOHN 8:11 NIV 11 "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin." Religi..

Jesus Is Your Righteousness

03/03/2017 03/03/2017 Daily Wisdom

ROMANS 5:1 NLT 1 Therefore, since we have been made right in God's sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us. God offers righteousness as a free gift to everyone who receives the Lord Jesus Christ. Righteousness means right-wise-ness, or being right. So righteousness is right standing, or good standing with God. It does not mean human "perfection." Righteousness is a gift from God -- not something you can earn or achieve. God simply decl..

2 CORINTHIANS 5:19 NIV 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. The Good News is about reconciliation between God and man. Jesus Christ accomplished it. Mankind was estranged from God.

Why Do Unborn Babies Matter? Just Because They Are

01/03/2017 02/03/2017 American

A few of us were having a conversation yesterday and something a member of the class I lead said reminded me of a quote I had just read and to which all pro-lifers would probably say a hardy “amen.” The great apologist G. K. Chesterton once wrote, “All men matter. You matter. I matter. It’s the hardest thing in theology to believe.” Rob Renfroe took Chesterton’s observation and concluded, “And that God—the God who is big enough to speak all of that [just the part of the universe we know about] ..
