Jesus is returning to judge the living and the dead. We live in the present, anticipating the work of Jesus and yearning for the End of All Things. Our present is different because our eternity is in view.

Matthew 24:36–44

Christ is the center of Scripture—He is the key to understanding everything. When we go to the Bible we can always expect it to point us to God’s work through His son, Jesus, on our behalf.

John 5:36b-40

Although we live an imperfect life, God sees us through Christ as perfect, completely covered by the death and resurrection of Christ. God declares a sinner to be righteous because of Jesus. We are all saints in the Lord!

Romans 7:14-25

God is rich in mercy because of His great love for us. Without God’s work in our lives, we are completely lost. What we cannot do, God does completely. You are loved, saved, and alive eternally because of Jesus. What an immeasurable gift!

Ephesians 2:8-9

Asking for help is not always easy. It’s even more difficult to ask for help in a culture that encourages and promotes self-sufficiency and self-reliance to the highest standard. However, we can’t go through life alone, and it is good to ask for help! Asking for help not only belefits us, but it also strengthens others and puts our trust in God.

Mark 5:21-34
