Do You Love Me?- Holiness
Chapter 15 of JC Ryle’s book “Holiness”
Thanksgiving (& Contentment)
The holiday season provides for us opportunities to grow in the grace of God.
The Church Which Christ Builds- Holiness
“Upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it” (Matthew 16:18).
Holiness: Chapter 10- Remember Lot’s Wife
Jesus told His first disciples, “Remember Lot’s Wife.” He still speaks to disciples today…We must not look back, longingly, at the world as this ancient woman did.
The Weight of Glory
The longings that we have in this world, that are satisfied from time to time- but only temporarily- these longings point us forward to a place where they will be permanently satisfied- Heaven.
Holiness: Lot- A Beacon
A reading from J.C. Ryle’s book “Holiness”
Christ, Our Rest
By believing the Good News we have heard, we are called to enter into the rest that Christ gives to us- a rest that fulfills what both the Sabbath Day and the Promised Land pointed to in the Old Testament.
The Danger of Being Pliable
A genuine Christian is one who perseveres to the end. The way we are taught to persevere is to keep our eyes on Christ- or, as this passage says, to “consider Jesus.”
Champion for Men & of Men
Mankind needed a champion, one to step out as a representative of the human race to achieve our salvation. There was only one way for this to happen, and it came from the mind of God in the Person of His Son. God took on flesh & blood and came to the rescue.
