John 5: 31-47

Humble submission before the Lord each day is necessary for effective service in His kingdom.

How can we, like David, prepare for the conflicts we know are headed our way? By praising God for past deliverances, and then petitioning him for future deliverances.

John 5:1-18

We must not diminish the attributes or character of God so that God seems more acceptable to us. We must not diminish God's righteousness and justice and therefore minimize his wrath. It is in understanding the depth of our sin, and the depth of God's wrath for sin, that we understand the work of Christ and the depth of God's love for His people.

Luke 18:9-14

Faith in the Resurrection Matthew 27:62, 28:15
