Call on Jesus!

Acts 2:21
"And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved."

CALL on JESUS as your SAVIOR!
YOU shall be SAVED!!
Today's verse is from the book of Acts. We are focused on words from the Apostle Peter's sermon. He is teaching in a way to awaken the hearers to embrace faith in Jesus Christ. These hearers will go on to join the church! His words build upon the promises of GOD from the Holy Scriptures. 

We call on the Holy Ghost to help us learn from the Holy Scriptures and understand God's promises better. As restated by the Apostle Paul in the letters to the Romans; "...confess with thy mouth... believe in thine heart ...THOU shalt be SAVED." As we read in Isaiah and in 1 Peter; "...and with His stripes WE are healed."

And, it was also Peter who taught that it "was FOREORDAINED BEFORE the foundation of the world," Before man, before the earth, before the universe, before the angels; God planned for the atonement of our sins!

All creation is here for the GLORY and PRAISE of Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross. (Period.)
We will want to change the way we live. 🤔✝️🙏
Amen.

obedient unto death

Philippians 2:8 "And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross." Are you offended? The creator of the universe became incarnate and walked with people. He served people. He sacrificed Himself for you and me. Was this work beneath Him? Did He have to do this? Why is THIS God's plan? Who am I to question GOD'S plan? In this letter, Paul's Holy Ghost inspired writing tells us to put others’ interests ahead of our own. Paul tells us to live from a spirit of selflessness, compassion, and unity, reflecting the character of Christ and His love for humanity. A love that is truly "MIGHTY!" "MIGHTY" is one of the names the prophet Isaiah recorded for the Messiah. This is NOT the typical way to be "MIGHTY." Jesus is GOD, and all the glory and majesty that comes with that. And God came down from heaven to be born into the family of people. GOD lived with us and died for us. ...

the donkey

Luke 19:32-34 "32 And they that were sent went their way, and found even as He had said unto them. 33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt? 34 And they said, The Lord hath need of him." God's Grand Plan is your REDEMPTION! Since GOD can make that happen, getting a donkey to ride into Jerusalem is easy! Before the celebratory crowd is shouting "HOSANNA!" Jesus sent 2 Disciples to get a donkey. What is described in today's verses is exactly the way Jesus said things would unfold. Here we can see Jesus is in charge of ALL creatures. The people and the donkeys!  In the verses leading up to here we can read that the Disciples are not getting it. They are thinking the Messiah was going to take David's throne. Take Israel back from the Roman occupation. People did not understand God's Grand Plan. Even though Jesus told them all. On their way to Jerusalem they pass through Jericho. Zacheas was there, the...

encouragement

Ephesians 6:10 "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might." We continue our study of the Lord's Prayer. This week, "Deliver Us From Evil." is also translated as "Deliver Us From The Evil One." We need to remain "sober" and "vigilant." A big part of this is studying the Holy Scriptures, like we are doing. We want to form a solid united front against Satan.  For the heart of our studies we turn to Paul's letter to the Ephesians. It was one of four letters Paul wrote while in prison in Rome. Paul cared deeply for the Ephesians. He lived with them for three years as this church was forming. He wants to encourage them and help them become successful. His words can help you and me today.
