Spiritual freedom in Christ leads to other kinds of freedom and empowers us to endure temporary enslavements while we wait for the Lord to make all things new.

God opens doors for the gospel. God opens hearts to receive the gospel. God opens homes for the gospel to spread.

Christianity is a reasonable faith. A faithful Christian is a thinking Christian. However, no one gets converted unless the arguments of the gospel affect their heart which happens through astonishment at the person of Jesus Christ.

Grace is for everyone.

We can experience the power of God's grace in personal conversion, community of the church, and our calling to share grace with others.

It is the message of God's grace in Jesus that can change an approval-seeking, praise-craving heart. Just as Jesus refused to impress, we too must rely on the power of his gospel.

The gospel offers more than we know to ask. God works in our life now and gives us the hope of final restoration in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

The church is a community of disciples of Jesus filled by his Spirit. It is a community devoted to the teaching of the gospel, the fellowship of believers, the worship of God, and the mission of the church.

We are compelled to worship God in the beauty of his holiness. God's beauty is the deepest longing of the human heart and the essence of the Christian life. And all the redeemed are destined to gaze upon the beautiful face of Jesus forever

We must learn the value of waiting and the virtue of patience. Our God is patient toward us and will work in us and for us until all his purposes in Christ are fulfilled.
