In Jesus, God raises you from the paralysis of sin and death, not only for your comfort, but also so the power and grace of God could be displayed in your life.

Before you were converted, God gave you gifts. He created you intentionally. He knit you together in your mother’s womb. But sometimes we take those gifts and point them in the wrong direction. Repent and redirect your gifts towards God’s glory and the good of His church.

Jesus comes to us in love even and especially when we don’t deserve it. God, in Jesus, has paid the price for every past sin and for every sin that you will ever commit, from now to glory.

There is no one beyond the scope of God’s redemptive purposes in Jesus. Every penitent sinner is welcomed into the household of God.

You might be a sincere and kind person, motivated by the best of intentions, but unless you are living under the lordship of Jesus, you are opposing God.

Nothing is beyond the redemptive scope of God’s goodness. He can take the apparent unmitigated loss of Stephen being stoned to death and use it to bring about the conversion of St. Paul.

The church must be adaptive in its means, but unshakable in its ends. Don’t ever compromise on the main thing – the preaching of Jesus Christ through the word of God.

Anyone, anywhere can be forgiven and saved, not because of who you are, but because of who Jesus is.

Don’t bow down to the altar of worldly wealth. Instead, overflow with hearts of generosity and fully trust in the Lord Jesus Christ.

We can rejoice with boldness in the face of persecution, because even hardship serves a purpose under the loving, sovereign hand of God.

In the lame beggar we see a picture of our spiritual state before Christ. We are poor, needy and without hope in ourselves, but we have a Saviour who reaches down and raises us up.

Christian devotion, as described in the early church, looks like dedication to apostolic teaching, fellowship, the breaking of bread together, and prayer.
