Justification settles our position before God. Sanctification deals with our condition. When we were crucified with Christ, our flesh died! Dead people can be raised to newness of life in Christ, and should not live the way they used to, covered in grave clothes.

Why does God speak about the subject of money so often in His Word? Because He knows the power it can have over our hearts and lives. How can we be a faithful steward over all the resources He has entrusted us with? How can we truly invest in the eternal?

We can’t hide from the fact that each one of us is a sinner. Where did sin come from? What is the result of sin upon mankind? Is there really a cure, a solution to my sin problem? Thank God that where sin abounded, His grace did much more abound!

Paul writes to the Romans in this passage about the many blessings and benefits that are ours through the Lord Jesus Christ. They give us great hope, peace and joy even in the midst of our tribulations!

The earthly parents of Jesus were really good people - they kept the law, the feasts, they sacrificed and prioritized their religion. But one day they left Jesus in Jerusalem as they made their way home from the latest celebration of the Passover feast. They were so preoccupied that they didn’t realize He was not in their midst. What a reminder to us modern day parents, who often get sidetracked by everything going on in life and fail to include Jesus in our homes and in our parenting!

Is your faith the kind that absolutely cannot be shaken? Is it a faith that not only believes that God can but knows that God will? Paul talks to us in this text about the faith of Abraham and the fact that this same faith can help us today to be fully persuaded that what God promises, He will perform.

God established the home and intended that it produce a society that honored Him and its fellow man. Satan has hijacked the home today and our struggles at home have led to the disintegration of our society. Here are some scriptural priorities and practices that can connect heaven to our homes!

So many people are trusting in the wrong things to get them into a right relationship with God - family and religious heritage, good deeds, religious practices, etc. However, God’s Word claims that only one thing will make us right with God, salvation by faith alone in the work of Jesus Christ.
