Key Verses:


“And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.”‭‭ ~ 2 Corinthians‬ ‭3‬:‭18‬


“In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace.” ~ ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬


‭““Come now, let us settle the matter,” says the Lord. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.”‭‭ ~ Isaiah‬ ‭1‬:‭18‬


‭“If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” ‭‭~ Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭9‬



Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭4‬-‭10‬



‭“For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.” ~ ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭1‬:‭4‬-‭6‬


“However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”— the things God has prepared for those who love him—”‭‭ ~ 1 Corinthians‬ ‭2‬:‭9‬


‭“And, “I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.””‭‭ ~ 2 Corinthians‬ ‭6‬:‭18‬


‭“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”‭‭ ~ 2 Corinthians‬ ‭5‬:‭17‬ ‭


“You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.”‭‭~ Ephesians‬ ‭4‬:‭22‬-‭24‬ ‭




A Message from Melissa: “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” (1 Thess.‬ ‭5‬:‭21‬): Study the Scripture for yourself and remember that I am just a person sharing the Gospel. I make mistakes. I don't explain the Word of God in a way that will resonate with everyone. I am not going to get it right all the time, and nor will any teacher, preacher, YouTuber, or pastor. I believe we can learn so much from each other, but no person's teaching can replace getting into the Bible yourself. As Christians let's focus more on the truth that unites us -- that we are saved by grace through faith because of what Christ did for us on the cross -- rather than on the details meant to divide us. Thank you for being here, and thank you for giving me grace.
