Romans 14:12 Giving An Account

So then each of us shall give account of himself to God. Romans 14:12 Every business and organization has to have someone who stands in as an accountant. That person is to record all financial transactions, both in purchasing and selling, to keep a track record of the money. This is so that there is record proof of what was spent and saved, where all of the money is. It benefits the investors…

A Bonfire of Vanity: Advice From the Wisest Man Who Ever Lived

Tom Wolfe (who wrote, “The Bonfire of the Vanities”) said, “The surest cure for vanity is loneliness.” Another person who understood vanity was (an older and somewhat jaded) King Solomon. After living a life of wealth and achievement, and after marrying hundreds of wives and keeping dozens of concubines, he wrote this: “Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and…

Ordo Salutis: Glorification

1 Cor 15:12 And if Messiah is proclaimed that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 1 Cor 15:13 And if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Messiah has not been raised. 1 Cor 15:14 And if Messiah has not been raised, then our proclaiming is empty, and your belief also empty,

Rom 8:23 And not only so, but even we ourselves who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, we ourselves also groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body. Rom 8:24 For in this expectation we were saved, but expectation that is seen is not expectation, for when anyone sees, does he expect it? Rom 8:25 And if we expect what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with endurance.

Rom 8:30 And whom He ordained beforehand, these He also called, and whom He called, these He also declared right. And whom He declared right, these He also esteemed. — 1 Corinthians 15:12-14 and Romans 8:23-25, 30 | The Scriptures (ISR 1998) The Scriptures 1998 Copyright © 1998 Institute for Scripture Research.

Choose your Podcast App to Play this episode This program focuses on how we can unknowingly be held captive to deception and lies of the devil based on our lack of studying and walking in the Truth of the Word of God.

Are You Depending on God?

By Adrian Rogers “Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.”  Romans…

Day 4

August 15, 2024

Dear friend,

Habits seem harder and harder to break. Which makes sense. The older I get, the more I become what I've been. The longer I've been doing the same things again and again and again, the deeper the patterns impress upon my heart. The dirt trails I have walked for three decades are now packed earth, paved road, highways.

But just because it's more difficult doesn't mean I should stop trying. Sin habits are still habits. I do them without thinking; they are so ingrained into my being and my soul. And yet, there's the still, small voice, the itty-bitty truth drowned out by routine... Think. Start thinking.

Think about who you are––beloved, saved, sanctified, adopted, made new.

Think about whose you are––child of the king, purchased and pardoned for a purpose, set apart for infinite glory and joy.

Think about why you continue to be––to glory in and enjoy a good God, to know and be known by Him, to reign with Him and be His bride, His body, His child (metaphors for infinite truths).

Think about where you are headed––eternal joy, seeing Jesus face to face.

Think about how you will get there––by faith... and through many dangers, toils, and snares... and carried along by grace and truth and divine power.

And as you think of these things, your affections might shift, even minutely, off course of where they were pushing your soul. And maybe the fires of lust get swallowed up in greater, stronger, divinely directed conflagrations.

Take some Philippians 4:8 pills and let them shape you a la Romans 12:1-2. Eat that bread of the Word and digest it thoroughly and soak in it (Psalm 1:1-3) and absorb every nutrient you can obtain (Psalm 119:11) and wield it powerfully (Ephesians 6:17) against the lies that have shaped you for years. But do it one day at a time, one step at a time, one leg at a time, one breath at a time (Philippians 3:13-14).

And you'll get there, friend.

And I struggle alongside you. It's tough out here. But we have infinite hope in an infinite Savior.

With affection,

Your brother

Trusting the Lord in Times of Suffering: An Expository Study of Alma 14

In our journey of faith, suffering can often feel insurmountable. It's in these moments that we must remember Christ's example and His ultimate sacrifice.

Alma the Younger and Amulek are led away from the fire that has consumed the believers in Ammonihah. Suffering is an inevitable part of the human experience, especially for believers striving to walk the path of righteousness. In Alma 14, we find a profound example of enduring faith amidst unimaginable trials. Alma and Amulek faced severe persecution and witnessed the martyrdom of the faithful,…

The Best News About the Past is That It's Really a Present

If there is anything to be learned from history, it’s that we should learn from the past. George Santayana famously said, “Men who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” So history can be educational, but there is another observation about the past that we should remember: we can’t live there… The Apostle Paul put it this way: “Brethren, I do not count myself yet to have…

...BUT IS IT BEST?

How can asking the right question equip us, by God’s grace and through the Spirit’s power, to live a radical Christ-centered life? In this article, we explore what it means to live our lives by asking the question, Is it best?

How can asking the right question equip us, by God’s grace and through the Spirit’s power, to live a radical Christ-centered life? Back in the early 2000’s, when I was working at my first real job out of college as a lowly marketing guy, our company’s leadership encouraged us to read and adopt many of the flavor-of-the-day inspirational business books of that era. I learned about Good to Great,…

It's been almost two weeks and I'm still not over my DM giving my AC monster artificier one rage a day. Sure, I can't cast spells DURING the rage, but there are so many spells that aren't concentration on the artificier spell list. *checks spell list and there's only one* yep so many! Forreal though Freedom of movement is a good spell to cast on a tank with 22 ac at level 5, more soon after. I think this class RAW has a 27 ac max, before any extra magic items given by the dm. What I REALLY want is to be able to wear two cloaks at the same time, of protection and displacement, because that would just be mean honestly. 27 ac AND disadvantage? With a +17 to hit (Fighting Tiamat she has the highest to hit bonus) that's STILL a 1/4 chance to hit.

But then giving me access to HALF damage for physical attacks? That DO manage to hit me? Fucking insane. And this is all from the complex backstory my character has lol

Jesus Delivers Us From Slavery

Exodus 12:31 He called for Moshe and Aharon by night, and said, "Rise up, get out from among my people, both you and the children of Yisra'el; and go, serve the LORD, as you have said! 32 Take both your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone; and bless me also!" 33 The Mitzrim were urgent with the people, to send them out of the land in haste, for they said, "We are all dead men." 34 The people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneading-troughs being bound up in their clothes on their shoulders. 35 The children of Yisra'el did according to the word of Moshe; and they asked of the Mitzrim jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and clothing. 36 The LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Mitzrim, so that they let them have what they asked. They despoiled the Mitzrim. 37 The children of Yisra'el journeyed from Ra`meses to Sukkot, about six hundred thousand on foot who were men, besides children. 38 A mixed multitude went up also with them, with flocks, herds, and even very much cattle.

Romans 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer? 3 Or don't you know that all we who were immersed into Messiah Yeshua were immersed into his death? 4 We were buried therefore with him through immersion to death, that just like Messiah was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection; 6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin. 7 For he who has died has been freed from sin. 8 But if we died with Messiah, we believe that we will also live with him; 9 knowing that Messiah, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no more has dominion over him! 10 For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God. 11 Thus also consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Messiah Yeshua our Lord. 12 Therefore don't let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. 13 Neither present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. 14 For sin will not have dominion over you. For you are not under law, but under grace. — Exodus 12:31-38 and Romans 6:1-14 | Hebrew Names Version (HNV) The Hebrew Names Version Bible is in the public domain.
