We believe that Jesus Christ is going to come back.

Yes, things in this world are messy right now. Yes, life can be really hard and people can be really mean and we can wonder about many things and why things are the way they are.

The Truth is that Jesus Christ is going to return. If you by faith believe in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior then you have an amazing, unmatched hope in the gracious salvation that will come when Christ returns.

The temporary struggle, that big, hard, difficult thing right in front of you, loses much of its pull and power and ill-effects when you remember that God is good and Christ is coming back to bring us home.

We are temporary residents in a foreign country that is not our own and struggle comes with the territory. But, do not despair, our blessed Savior, Jesus Christ is coming back! Have hope! Salvation and restoration and all things becoming new is not too far off! Christ will return and the struggle will end. Have hope!

Today we are ruminating on John 17:15-17.

What does it mean to sanctify, or be sanctified? “To sanctify” (Gr. hagiazo) means to set apart for God’s service

Jesus is talking to God and asking that God would sanctify believers, those who by faith believe in Jesus Christ, sanctify them by the truth which is synonymous with God’s Word. He is literally praying for you that you would be set apart for God’s service.

More than that, Jesus prays the Father would sanctify the disciples by using His word. This means that it is essential for disciples to know, understand, believe, and obey the revelation that God has given us.

One commentator writes: “With [your] mind, [you] learn God’s truth through the Word. With [your] heart, [you] love God’s truth, His Son [cf. 14:6]. With [your] will, [you] [submit] to the Spirit [of truth, cf. 14:17; 16:13] and live God’s truth day by day. It takes all three for a balanced experience of sanctification.”

Today we are ruminating on John 17:15-17.

When Jesus prays for the people that follow Him, we ought to take notice. When He prays that His disciples would not be taken out of the world but would be protected while they are in the world, He meant it!

Historically Christians have withdrawn from the world socially and in other ways or have compromised with the world in order to relieve themselves from some of the animosity and exclusion that comes.

Some Christians tend to withdraw from a disagreeable and dangerous environment while others prefer to blend into it and just kind of go along to get along.

Jesus’ prayer and desire for His followers, however, is that they should remain loyal to God while continuing to be IN the world.

One Bible commentator said this: “Christians must not take themselves out of the world but remain in meaningful contact with it, trusting in God’s protection while they witness for Jesus.”

Today we are ruminating on 2 Timothy 3:14-15.

The Apostle Paul is writing to Timothy, his beloved son in the faith. Paul encourages Timothy to continue faithfully following what he knows to be true. He knows it to be true not just because someone has told him that it is true, but because he knows the character and conduct of those who have taught it to him.

Timothy has not just seen people faithfully know and follow the Bible, he also has himself studied the Bible from a young age. He knows what the Bible says and knows that the Bible is not something simply to be read but something very much to be lived.
