While Peter was still saying these things, the Holy Spirit fell on all who heard the word. And the believers from among the circumcised who had come with Peter were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out even on the Gentiles. For they were hearing them speaking in tongues and extollingContinue reading “Which came first?”

Way of the Spirit
Or do you not know, brothers—for I am speaking to those who know the law—that the law is binding on a person only as long as he lives? For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of marriage.Continue reading “Way of the Spirit”
Chosen…
So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation—if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good. As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in theContinue reading “Chosen…”
Who is in Christ?
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.

Called to be Bold!!!
Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men, they were astonished. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus. But seeing the man who was healed standing beside them, they had nothing to say in opposition. But when they had commanded them to leaveContinue reading “Called to be Bold!!!”

But theyContinue reading “stand with God…”

Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. Do not grumble againstContinue reading “so that you may not be judged…”
Out of the depths…
Psalm 130 is the appointed psalm for today. And it begins, “Out of the depths I cry…” Have you ever felt like you were so far away from God that you didn’t what to do? That you were in the depths of Sheol, or worse? “What can I do, everything is crumbling around me and noContinue reading “Out of the depths…”
Trinity…
This is an icon of the Holy Trinity that I have fallen in love with. It is so beautifully depicted and shows us the reason behind the Trinity. On this Holy Trinity Sunday we talk about one of the doctrines of the church that we do not understand or comprehend. We try to explain the Trinity throughContinue reading “Trinity…”
If the world hates you
Have you ever been hated? Have you ever hated anyone? I was told once in a bible study I was leading that hate is a very harsh word, and as Christians how could we ever hate anyone… Well I hated someone. They had wronged me and my family, and they did things that I neverContinue reading “If the world hates you”
