THE PASSION OF CHRIST ON HUMANITY

Image
GOOD FRIDAY For the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many. (Mark 10:45) SEVEN WORDS OF CHRIST ON THE CROSS The seven words of Jesus Christ on the Cross came as a result of the passion He had on humanity. Man fell in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3) and God so loved the world and thought it that the perfect sacrifice that would restore man back to Himself was a true sacrifice of His one and only begotten Son (John 3:16). Jesus gave himeslf to humanity to reconcile man back to His father. He left all the pleasure above, came in all humility, did not not consider equality with God but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, became obedient to death, even death on the cross (Philippians 2:5-11). Thus we are redeemed forever  if we believe in Him and assured eternal life. The following are the last words of the Lord as f He faces crucifixion: First Word: Luke 23:34 “Father, forgive them, for they ...

You Are Not Beyond God’s Mercy

You Are Not Beyond God’s Mercy Some people smile in public but quietly carry heavy regret inside. There are memories they wish they could erase, choices they wish they had never made, and moments they replay over and over in their minds.

NO MATTER YOUR POSITION

N O  M ATTER  Y OUR  P OSITION     In 2 Samuel 7:2–3, King David, though a powerful and established leader, exemplifies true humility and spiritual maturity. Despite having the authority and resources to build a temple, David did not take matters into his own hands simply because he was king. Instead, he chose to do what was right by first consulting the prophet Nathan. This shows that David recognized God’s ultimate authority and sought His guidance before proceeding with his plans.  THE POWER OF SEEKING PERMISSION David's actions demonstrate that true leadership involves acknowledging God's authority and seeking His guidance. By doing so, David shows that even when we have the power to act, it's essential to prioritize God's will and permission. KEY TAKEAWAYS: 1.  Humility in leadership:  David's approach teaches us that true power lies in humility and recognizing God's sovereignty. 2.  Seeking God's face:  By seeking permission, David...
