Men Spoke By God
In scripture, we have more than archetypal stories, we have eyewitness accounts carried along by the Holy Spirit.

Follow along as R.D. Glenn unpacks Psalm 119 in our ‘God’s Word Written’ sermon series.
A failure to give God’s word a place of primacy in our life is at the root of sin and a ploy of the serpent.
Christ abided by all things written in the law for us and in our place. Therefore in him we are adopted as sons of the Father and heirs to the promise.
If God sends hardship and difficulty in your life, it is not punishment – Christ has fully paid for your punishment in full, instead, it is his loving design. He loves you too much to allow you to stay on the path to disaster. When God disciplines you, it is evidence that you are his own.
Faith can result in conquering, but it can also result in something better – a cross-shaped life. God takes our losses and turns them into something beautiful.
In the Old Testament sacrificial system, people offered the best they had to God, but now in Jesus, God offers the best he has to us.
For the Christian, death is no longer something to be feared, for we have a Saviour and Mediator who has conquered death and has once for all dealt with our judgment, by the sacrifice of Himself.
Jesus is the mediator of a new and better covenant of hope – a covenant not written in a book, but instead written on our hearts.
How can a Christian person have assurance and confidence before a holy God? Jesus is able to save you to the uttermost. By his intercession, Jesus wraps us in himself. He envelopes us so that we can draw near to God.
