You may have heard the term “cheap grace”. It’s the idea that someone can have Jesus as their Savior, but ignore him as their Lord. They want Him to forgive them, but they don’t care to conform their lives to His authority. Today, Pastor Ron explains that this isn’t biblically possible. When you agree – in your heart, and with your words – that Jesus is Lord, you’re accepting Him in totality. And when you truly know and understand Who Jesus Is, you’ll certainly want to follow everything He says.

There are probably some very important people in your life who don’t know Christ, and you wish they would! Today, Pastor Ron shows us that the apostle Paul had that same desire. But it didn’t stop there. Paul not only wanted those he loved to be saved, but he also prayed that they would be saved. God has placed people in your life, and in your heart, whom He wants to reach through you. You may not always have the opportunity to talk with them, but you always have the opportunity to pray for them.

There seems to be a general consensus among people who believe in heaven, that God should allow everyone there. Or at least, almost everyone… maybe not the very worst people. But for the most part, we’re all really good, really nice people, and we deserve heaven. Today, Pastor Ron clearly shows that that idea is categorically false! No one “deserves” eternity in fellowship with the Holy God. Only through faith in Christ can anyone be reconciled to Him. So remember, put your faith in Christ Alone. 

We live in a culture that rewards people according to achievement. We see it in report cards in schools. We get “merit increases” at our jobs. We believe that people who are good or talented or work hard “should” succeed. But, as Pastor Ron explains today, that may be the way it works in this world. But that’s not how it works with God’s grace. His grace to you is totally His gift. You couldn’t earn it, you don’t deserve it. Still, He gives you his overwhelming, never-ending love.

When you hear of a horrific death or tragedy it makes your heart hurt. It’s normal for us to feel immense pain when we find out someone has died, but do we feel the same pain for people who haven’t found Jesus yet? Today, Pastor Ron will encourage you to go and seek the people who don’t know the love of Jesus. If you have doubts about someone's salvation, it’s never too late to talk with them. Encourage them that there’s a Savior who loves them and has a plan and an eternal purpose for their life. 

The definition of conscience is: “an inner feeling or voice viewed as acting as a guide to the rightness or wrongness of one's behavior.” So we all have something that is guiding us to a feeling of being morally right or morally wrong, but the question is what is that voice that’s guiding you? Is it your voice, someone else’s, or something other than yourself? Today, Pastor Ron will encourage you to use the Holy Spirit as your guide. When you surrender to God, He will make sure your conscience can be trusted. 

The devil likes to make us doubt our salvation in Christ. He speaks lies into our ears that convince us that God is putting us through trials not out of love, but out of hatred and punishment. The reality is, that God only allows us to go through hardships because He loves us. If you begin to count your trials as joy, you will learn that God is in the midst of everything that you are faced with. Today, Pastor Ron will remind you that God’s intentions are always pure and it’s always meant to bring you closer to Him. 

There isn’t any sin that you can commit that will take away your relationship with God. If you’ve called Him your Lord and Savior, you are saved forever. It’s hard to believe sometimes when you’ve done something that feels unforgivable, but that’s the amazing thing about God. He is willing to look past any mistake you’ve made as long as you repent and return to Him. Today, Pastor Ron will encourage you to lay down your sins at the foot of the cross and remember that God will forgive you no matter what.  

In a courtroom, the attorney's role is to convince the judge of the defendant's innocence. Then, the individual is found not guilty. In the same way, when it comes to your spiritual journey, Satan tries to paint you as someone stained by sin. But did you know that there's an Attorney out there who has taken all the blame for you? Today, Pastor Ron shares how Jesus has saved you. He embraced the blame upon Himself and showed you as righteous in the eyes of God the Father. Because of Jesus, you’re justified!

It’s easy to find yourself caught up in those thoughts about your past mistakes. You may feel unworthy of God’s love and wonder if He really cares about you, especially when you focus on your imperfections. But have you ever considered the fact that He knows everything about you—your past, your present, and your future? And despite all that, He still chose to love you and save you from eternal damnation? Today, Pastor Ron shares an amazing message about the incredible, unconditional love that God has for you!
