19 Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God’s people and members of God’s household, Because Jesus has taken down every barrier there was between us and God, we can be in right relationship with Him. There are no second class members of God’s family. Either you are part ofContinue reading “5Aug2010 Ephesians 2:19”

4Aug2010 Matthew 19:24
24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. From what I have read, the eye of a needle referred to a small door in a large door at the entrance of a city.Continue reading “4Aug2010 Matthew 19:24”
3Aug2010 Ephesians 2:10
10 For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. God has a plan for our lives. There are positive things we are to accomplish, things that reflect His character. God is working in us. He is remaking us so that weContinue reading “3Aug2010 Ephesians 2:10”
2Aug2010 Galatians 6:1
1Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted. We have the responsibility to intervene when someone is being pulled under by sin. But we must be very careful that we don’t get sucked under as well. One ofContinue reading “2Aug2010 Galatians 6:1”
1Aug2010 Matthew 19:12
12 For some are eunuchs because they were born that way; others were made that way by men; and others have renounced marriage because of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it. Eunuchs could not participate in sexual relations. There are people who chose to remain single for theContinue reading “1Aug2010 Matthew 19:12”
31July2010 Matthew 19:9
9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery. The Gospel is offensive. It gets right in people’s face, right where they live. Jesus did not pull punches. This verse, and the several other verses that confront divorce, are very hard to hear. ThisContinue reading “31July2010 Matthew 19:9”
30July2010 Galatians 4:19
19 My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you, Paul had a deep desire, a God-given desire, that the Gospel would change those reading his letter and ministry would be profoundly changed by its message. His message was one of change at the deepestContinue reading “30July2010 Galatians 4:19”
29July2010 Matthew 19:6
6 So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate. From the beginning of time marriage was meant to be a permanent connection between a man and a woman. This is a universal truth laid out in Scripture. Only death could sever that union. When aContinue reading “29July2010 Matthew 19:6”
28July2010 Exodus 40:34
34 Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. The Lord has delivered the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, passing them all through the Red Sea, saving them from the chariots of Egypt. He has given Moses instructions on setting up a place of worship forContinue reading “28July2010 Exodus 40:34”
27July2010 Galatians 3:24-25
24 So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we might be justified by faith. 25 Now that faith has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law. The law had a job to do, but now the law’s job is finished. For believers in Jesus, weContinue reading “27July2010 Galatians 3:24-25”
