Now Is The Day Of Salvation
(2 Corinthians 6:1-2) The grace of God has been given for all people to be able to come to Christ when and if they accept God’s grace. The invitation is open to all mankind, but it is up to each and every person to accept God’s inviting grace and so be saved from their sins…

Salvation Is Near
(Romans 13:11) The primary reason people come to Jesus Christ is that they recognize the fruitless ness and worthlessness of their life on earth through sin, and are seeking salvation. Jesus Christ is the Saviour and He is the way we must find salvation for salvation comes from God alone, through Jesus Christ. But there…

Hope Of Salvation
(Romans 8:22-25) In my last post we looked at the fact that God has subjected the whole of this creation to futility. This world, in fact this universe that we live in is basically futile for it will not last. And if there is one thing common to all mankind it is the desire for…

Defeating The Serpent
(Acts 28:1-6) In my last post on this blog I wrote about the protection of The Lord. As Christians we are protected in many different ways, both physically protected and spiritually protected. We do have a responsibility to not put ourselves into situations where we are in danger if we can, but that is not…

Who Can Be Saved?
(Acts 19:18-20) Who can be saved? This is an interesting question. When you look at some of the things preached in many churches you would think that there are very few who can or have the right to be saved. And then others believe that almost everyone will be saved. Whether we like to admit…

Promise of Salvation
(Acts 2:36-41) As Peter concluded his oration on Pentecost Day we see the unfolding of the first massive calling to the people and the revelation of salvation.

Plotting Against Jesus
(John 11:45-53) After Lazarus was raised from the dead, a great many of the Jews believed in Him. They recognised the power of God in Jesus for no one had ever seen a man resurrected before. This confounded the leaders, the chief priests and the Pharisees and threw them into despair. They were utterly at…

Jesus Came to Save, Not to Condemn
(John 3:17-18) Quite often you hear people talk about how hard it is to be a Christian. They talk about all the rules and regulations and laws and how if you make a mistake you’ll be condemned to hellfire and brimstone. Unbelievers in particular talk about God as if he were ready to damn every…

The Son of Man Will be Lifted Up
(John 3:9-15) While speaking to Nicodemus, the Lord provides him with an insight into why He had come. He shows this by using a parallel from the old testament to show how the faith revealed in Christianity would work. In this section there are several valuable lessons to be learned which will benefit us today.…

He Came to Save the Lost
(Luke 19:1-10) There was a belief amongst the religious people, and perhaps all the people, at the time when Jesus appeared that he was coming to be king over the earth. They had an expectation that he would reign as supreme and all powerful and that the religious leaders would perhaps take positions of authority…

Who are the Little Flock?
(Luke 12:32-34) Did you know that there are two flocks that follow Jesus? At least there are or will be until all is accomplished and the two are combined into one flock. Jesus talks about a little flock in this section of scripture saying, “Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure…

Being Serious About Salvation
(Mark 9:42-50) How serious are you about salvation? How serious should you be? Is it the most important thing in your life? Should it be the most important thing? To answer these questions read this section of the scripture, for it gives us an indication of how serious we should be about this opportunity the…
