  • God's Amazing Grace
    Jan 29 2025

    The Holy Bible defines grace as the Sovereign LORD God’s kindness, unmerited favor, forgiveness, goodness, blessings, salvation, and eternal love. The essence of the Holy Trinity (Triune) of God - the Sovereign LORD God, His Son Christ Jesus our Lord, and the Holy Spirit of God - means grace and peace. Grace is a good gift from God. The Holy Bible speaks of the Sovereign LORD God coming and giving His amazing grace, forgiveness, and mercy to Jacob (Israel), Israel’s children in Exodus, the prodigal sons, Apostle Paul, and many others, not because of any righteous act nor ritual but when they were dead in Satan’s darkness and bondage. The Good News (Gospel) is the message of the Sovereign LORD God’s amazing grace and love for all people by sending His Son Christ Jesus to bring salvation (healing) and a new spiritual life through faith in Him and His Son Christ Jesus as Lord and Savior. Those who have experienced the Sovereign LORD God’s amazing grace, salvation, and forgiveness receive the Holy Spirit of God with new hearts, equipping, strengthening, and transforming them to live holy lives and producing good fruits of righteousness and love within their lives and hearts. The Sovereign LORD God empowers believers in Jesus to walk with Him by humble faith from their whole hearts and live blameless lives filled with honesty, decency, and integrity. Christ Jesus declared in His teaching that living a life of mercy, forgiveness, goodness, humility, generosity, faith, and love for one another leads to God’s blessings and grace. Everyone can access the Sovereign LORD God’s abundant grace and mercy through our repentance (turning from Satan) with faith and obedience to Him and His Son, Christ Jesus as Lord and Savior. The Sovereign LORD God gives His abundant grace, favor, and inheritance to those who repent and turn from evildoing and live and walk with Him by faith in truth and goodness with a humble spirit. The New Testament writers encouraged believers of Jesus to continue living in God’s grace with obedience to Him and never abuse God’s grace with Satan’s dark living.

  • Miracles
    Jan 22 2025

    The Holy Bible is filled with miracles, including Israel’s exodus from Egyptian slavery and deliverance at the Red Sea, the miracles of Joshua, David versus Goliath, and the prophets Elijah and Elisha, the miraculous birth and resurrection of Christ Jesus, and the numerous miracles and wonders of Jesus and His true disciples. Miracles are extraordinary and supernatural events declaring the power and divine work of the Sovereign LORD God and His Kingdom into the human affairs of the world. Signs and wonders” are often defined and associated with miracles in the Holy Bible. Also, there are individuals with the divine gift of miracles given by the Holy Spirit of God to help strengthen, edify, and encourage the church of Jesus. Miracles are for God’s glory. However, miracles are NOT magic, but they are connected to the Sovereign LORD God’s providence - the protective care of God (fate, destiny, or divine intervention). The Sovereign LORD God can perform miracles and wonders as He controls and governs all aspects of life in the heavens and earth. The Holy Bible teaches that the Sovereign LORD God makes the rain fall, causes the grass to grow, and holds all things by His word and power. Satan and his lawless workers of darkness also perform miracles, signs, and false wonders for money, pride, and fame to take people away from the loving Sovereign LORD God Almighty and His abundant grace and goodness. Christ Jesus taught that everyone can recognize these lying demons of Satan by their bad fruit and evil deeds of darkness. The Sovereign LORD God and His Son Christ Jesus are greater, mighty, and more powerful than Satan and his evil workers of darkness. Everyone can access the Sovereign LORD God’s miracles of grace through our humble prayers, seeking Him with our wholehearted belief and faith in His goodness and grace found in Christ Jesus our Lord. Nothing is impossible nor too hard for God.

  • Who Is God
    Jan 16 2025

    The Holy Bible states that there is ONE true and living God of heaven and earth, and He is the Sovereign LORD God and Holy Father of Christ Jesus our Lord, who is our Mediator and Peacemaker with God. The Sovereign LORD God is King of the Universe, and He is ONE with this Son, Christ Jesus and the Holy Spirit of God. There are many names for the Sovereign LORD God in the Holy Bible, including Adonai, El Shaddai (God Almighty), Elohim, and the Holy One. The essence of God’s Name is Yahweh or Jehovah - translated as the LORD, meaning “the I AM WHO I AM” or “I AM the Existing One,” and He is the Father of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob filled with unending love, mercy, forgiveness, and justice. The eternal Sovereign LORD God like His Son Christ Jesus is the First and Last - Alpha and Omega. Every one who loves and trusts the Sovereign LORD God is known by Him. The living Sovereign LORD God reigns and rules the world, and we can always trust in Him as our loving provider, shield, and helper. However, an idol is nothing in the world because an idol represents no real god and possesses no power, and we must NEVER worship an idol or any other god. The all-knowing Sovereign LORD God is our good and faithful Heavenly Father, and He and His Son Christ Jesus are our Savior and Creator of the heavens, the earth, the sea, and all living things that live in them - our life. The heavens and earth reveal the Sovereign LORD God’s existence and power as our merciful Redeemer, Savior, and LORD of Heaven’s Armies (Sabaoth). Finally, the Holy Bible states that everyone must love and trust but also fear the all-wise Sovereign LORD God with all our hearts, souls, minds, and strength as He is the King of the Universe. Let the whole earth seek and worship the Sovereign LORD God and love Him first with our hearts, and also love one another because love and goodness strengthen the church of Christ and the world.
