Oh LORD

HOME OF ARTICLES  “And there came a voice to him, “Rise, Peter; kill and eat.” But Peter said, “No, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.” (Acts 10:13-14 RSV)   Peter was undoubtedly one of the closest disciples of Jesus Christ. He was undoubtedly the most zealous and outspoken among the twelve chosen disciples who followed Jesus Christ everywhere during His earthly ministry. When the Lord Jesus called Peter to follow Him, he promptly left all his fishing boats and nets to follow Jesus. Matthew 4:18-20 – NKJV  18 And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.  19 Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.”  20 They immediately left their nets and followed Him. Moreover, when the band of soldiers and the officers of the Jews came to arrest Jesus, it was Peter who rose to defend the Lord Jesus by drawin...

GOD’S ULTIMATE PLAN

HOME OF ARTICLES    “And this is the plan: At the right time he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ – everything in heaven and on earth.” (Eph. 1:10 NLT)   All things in heaven and on earth, visible or invisible, were created by the Lord Jesus Christ, the Word of God. John 1:1-3 – NKJV  1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  2 He was in the beginning with God.  3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. Not only were all things created by the Lord Jesus, but all things were created for Him, and he is also holding all things together. Paul attests to this truth. Colossians 1:15-17 – NLT 15 Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation, 16 for through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see – suc...

THE FAITH OF THE SON OF GOD

HOME OF ARTICLES       "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me." (Galatians 2:20 KJV)   God forbids us to use different measures or standards in our dealings with people. God strictly commanded the children of Israel to have and use perfect and just measures in all their transactions. Deuteronomy 25:14-15 – NKJV 14 You shall not have differing measures in your house, a large and a small. 15 You shall have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure, that your days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD your God is giving you. Proverbs 20:10 – NKJV 10 Diverse weights and diverse measures, they are both alike, an abomination to the LORD. The Scripture also warns against partiality. James 2:1-4 – NKJV  1 My brethren, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, wit...
