If you are like me, when you hear a statement like “God is sovereign”, it gives you peace but it can also leave you perplexed as you wonder what exactly that means and whether or not you should do anything. When we are facing difficulties, it lifts the burden on us when we realize andContinue reading “God’s sovereignty and Us”

Looking to the Immutable One
“Trust and obey, for there’s no other way to be happy in Jesus but to trust and obey”. Such are the words from the nineteenth century hymn which are still so true today. If there is one thing we know as Christians, it is that we serve God and we answer to Him, not theContinue reading “Looking to the Immutable One”
The New Thing
Prophecies have this particularity that they make you look forward to a thing, they increase your longing and expectation so that you do not grow complacent and give up. That is why, the Bible is filled with prophecies about what the Lord will do, the return of Christ and the judgement that is coming. Moreover,Continue reading “The New Thing”
Which Side are you On?
Despite the current trends of the world where nothing can ever be known for sure, the Bible is very clear. There is no confusion in that book whether it is gender, or marriage, sexuality, finances, race, you name it. There is a disparity that is quite flagrant between what the Bible teaches and what ourContinue reading “Which Side are you On?”
More than a Saviour
The greatest act of love we know is from Jesus dying on the cross to save mankind from their sins. One of the reasons it is extraordinary is because Jesus died for his enemies, the ones who killed him. To all those who would believe in him, including his enemies, he gave a new life,Continue reading “More than a Saviour”
Waiting for the Lord’s Return
I have recently started reading the book of Revelation and every time I do, it seems the book opens to me in a new way. While I am not yet deep in the book, I thought it would be interesting to share what I have noticed so far in the first two chapters and howContinue reading “Waiting for the Lord’s Return”
Righteous Living – the portion of the just
This is the call of the Christian, to live righteously in this world as we await the coming of our King and the fulfillment of all that is ours in Christ Jesus. Indeed, anyone who has crossed over from death to life through Jesus’ sacrifice knows he or she has become a new creature andContinue reading “Righteous Living – the portion of the just”
Freedom is your portion
Paul opens the fifth chapter of the book of Galatians with this bold statement: “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.” (Galatians 5:1). There is no other reason why we have been set free, except to be free! The sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the Son of God on the cross did moreContinue reading “Freedom is your portion”
The wisdom of God
These are the first verse from the hymn “Immortal Invisible” by Walter C. Smith which depicts the grandeur of the God we serve. This is not all that God is, for who can know the mind of God? Christians serve a God who cannot be described, cannot be contained in a box, cannot be understoodContinue reading “The wisdom of God”
The mystery of election
The bible is filled with this. It’s pervasive in its lines. Election, as defined by Benjamin Merkle is “God’s choice of individuals to receive his favor before they have done anything good or bad” [1]. The concept of election is really God’s right that He exercises over people. He chooses whom he wants as PaulContinue reading “The mystery of election”
