Good News! He died for all, even for the the worst sinner. (Romans 5:6-9)

  When we were utterly helpless, Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners. Now, no one is likely to die for a good person, though someone might be willing to die for a person who is especially good.  But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.  And since we have been made right in God's sight by the blood of Christ, he will certainly save us from God's judgment. When each one on earth were utterly helpless...We have to get to that point in our lives before we can  saved.  We have to come to that point when nothing, absolutely nothing can save us except Christ.  As long as you are still hanging to a piece of raft on the water.  You are not utterly helpless.  Christ will come at just the right time to save you.  Jesus Christ didn't come to die for good people or those that think they are good.  He came to die for the worst sinners.  If we can admit it, we all at one time have done some bad things but even

The Party is almost over! (John 16:7-11) (2 Thessalonians 2:7)

June 05, 2020 But it is actually best for you that I go away, because if I don't the Counselor won't come.  If I do go away, he will come because I will send to you.  And when he comes, he will convince the world of its sin, and of God's righteousness, and of the coming judgment.  The world's sin is unbelief in me.  Righteousness is available because I go to the Father, and you will see me no more.  Judgment will come because the prince of this world has already been judged. Jesus was letting his disciplesknow before his crucifixion that soon he would go away but that he would not leave them alone, consequently, he would send the Counselor which is one of the title of the Holy Spirit.  Another title for the Holy Spirit is Comforter.  These titles refers only to the Holy Spirit relation to the believer. Unfortunately, the Holy Spirit has been abused by a lot of people.  To name a few of those abuses, he is not a "it" making him a thing.  He is a person, h

Receive the Living Water (John 4:3-10)

So he left Judea to return to Galilee. He had to go through Samaria on the way.  Eventually he came to the Samaritan village of Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.  Jacob's well was there; and Jesus, tired from the long walk, sat wearily beside the well about noontime.  Soon a Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, "Please give me a drink."  He was alone at the time because his disciples  had gone into the village to buy some food. The woman was surprised for Jews refuse to have anything to do with Samaritans.  She said to Jesus, "You are a Jew, and I am a Samaritan woman.  Why are you asking me for a drink?" Jesus replied, "If you only knew the gift God has for you and who I am, you would ask me, and I would give you living water." Today in our world people are obviously angry, defeated maybe by all that is happening and I don't blame them.  There is a lot to be angry about.  We just have to kee
