When we understand that the God of the Bible is Omnipresent (everywhere all at the same time), Omnipotent (all-powerful), and Omniscient (All-knowing), and when we realize that the Bible is factually flawless, we can take comfort and rest easy in God’s arms and place our burdens at the foot of the cross! We can read…
When we compare Genesis 1:1, the “God spoke and then…” verses and John 1, we see how Jesus is the creator of all things and that He is also God Himself. Being one of His creations, we can only find true peace and contentment when we know Him and have a relationship with Him. God…
The fact is that none of us are capable of becoming free from the slavery of sin under our own power. Isaiah knew it (Isaiah 6), Paul knew it, and if we really think about it, we know it too. Think of the countless times you’ve tried to control the sin or to eliminate it…
