    Walking in a Manner Worthy to Our Calling

    May 28, 2020 / 1 Comment

    “Walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called” Ephesians 4:1 (ESV) “Walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.” Colossians 1:10 (ESV) This word worthy is used to mean “as if you deserve it”.   “Walk in a manner worthy of the Lord”, boils down to: you have received God and His gift and now walk as if you deserve it.  As Christians we know that what we deserve is death because of our sin (Romans 6:23) and that the eternal life which we have received is not…

    Why Should I Care About God?

    May 21, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Sometimes we think of God as a far off being who takes no interest in our lives. We don’t think of Him as caring about our worries, desires, problems, and joys. We know that Jesus is supposed to be our best friend, God like our daddy; but this is just head knowledge that doesn’t serve us very well when deep down we think that God is actually just waiting to catch us out when we do something wrong.

    Who do you trust in? Think about that seriously. Do you trust your mom, dad, husband, wife, girlfriend, boyfriend, best friend, cousin, teacher…?  Do you trust God? If you said no, I would encourage you to read this But I would guess you said yes. I mean after all, most of the people reading this blog have made a major decision: the decision to trust in God for their eternal salvation.  You have decided that for a future you cannot see, cannot know about with absolute certainty, cannot fully comprehend because our entire human mindset only views that which begins and ends. You have trusted God for that eternity believing…
