Nailed to the Cross
If you are plagued by besetting sins, press more deeply into the knowledge, love and the worship of Jesus. You need more than just behaviour modification – you need to dive deeper into the Gospel.

What is it that makes a Christian person different? In a world awash with despair, Christians are notable for their hope.
True belief in Jesus is never just a cerebral exercise. If someone is truly saved, their life will be marked by Faith in Christ, love for all the saints and a heavenly hope.
If you are struggling to hold onto your life and faith, know from scripture that Christ is holding on to you. God doesn’t promise that you won’t be bruised, but he does promise you won’t get lost.
Grace does not cancel our efforts, it empowers our efforts. We never passively drift towards holiness; we find holiness when we draw near to Christ and actively swim upstream towards the gospel.
Contend in your Christian life through remembering and returning to the gospel, day after day.
The Christian faith has content. Contend for it. Don’t change it, don’t water it down. You’ve received it—now pass it on. God’s grace comes to you on its way to others.
In a world that holds out vice as virtue and sin as righteousness, it is the ministry of the Holy Spirit to untangle these knots in your heart and ground you in the truth of Christ.
Christ has ascended and is going to come back to bring the Kingdom of God in its fullness. Don’t waste your time staring up into the sky. Go and be His witnesses to the ends of the Earth.
God doesn’t promise you a life of ease, but he does promise he’ll be with you through it all. There is no place, no time, where you are ever apart from the Lord Jesus Christ.
