How nice is it to have a president again, who isn't afraid to say "Jesus" or "Merry Christmas?"
Thank you Jesus for having mercy on our nation!!

Several years ago, a neighbor kid kicked a football and shattered a small basement window. We were a family of six living on a teacher's salary at the time, so I boarded it up, thinking I'd get to it someday. The frame was rusted shut. I couldn't fix it.

No one loves me more than Jesus Christ does, and no one is more committed to me than Jesus Christ is. That gives me a peace that passes understanding and sets me free to love and serve people no matter what. —@SteffenAMueller in @Tabletalk bit.ly/2WIll44

"Unhitch the Old Testament,"
"Reject biblical gender roles,"
"Elevate Jesus' words over Paul's,"
"Interpret Scripture through a cultural lens,"
"Modernize Scripture for the culture..."
All of these are just new ways of Satan asking the same old question, "Did God actually say?"

If we could understand how patient God is with our weaknesses, we would not fail to show patience to others.

A news flash from ancient history — we have an account of death, burial and resurrection of Jesus, including named eyewitnesses and groups, dating back to within months of the event. That’s historical gold!

I didn't become a Christian because God promised I'd have an even happier life than I had as an atheist. Rather I became a Christian because the evidence was so compelling Jesus really is the one-and-only Son of God who proved his divinity by rising from the dead.

How not to waste your rest:
1. Ask God to protect you from wasted leisure.
2. Give your best energies to feeding your soul on the sweetness of Christ.
3. Don’t do anything that would diminish your capacities to revel in the riches of the Bible.

Sinners should not turn to Jesus simply because they are scared of hell; they should repent and trust Jesus because God has been so kind to save them from hell. Huge difference.

Q 18. But who now is that Mediator, who in one person is true God and also a true and righteous man?
A Our Lord Jesus Christ, who is freely given unto us for complete redemption and righteousness.

The Bible offers Jesus to all people without distinction without any embarrassment that Christ did not die for all people without exception. bit.ly/2YzsxQq
