Freedom and Confidence

Bob Christopher, Bob Davis

Paul wrote this in Ephesians 3:12 "In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence." We don't have to pretend with God or put up a front. We can simply speak our minds. And that's freedom. Freedom from condemnation and fear. We see the same word in Hebrews 10:19 "...since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus...". Based on the shed blood of Christ we are free indeed and we can enter into the throne room and He can extend that mercy and grace to us.

The Way, The Truth, and The Life

Bob Christopher, Bob Davis, Richard Peifer

One of my favorite verses is John 17:3 "Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." As we embrace Jesus we really do come to know everything about Him.

  • I feel so far away from God, I doubt my salvation and I don't know what to do. What does it mean to walk in the spirit?
  • I struggle with my daily walk... especially related to work. I'm not satisfied with this life.
  • I struggle with my daily walk... especially related to work. I'm not satisfied with this life. 2 Corinthians 3:6, 5:18,19 "He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life." "ll this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. "

  • On Friday we talked about the fear of death. But the hope we have in Jesus allows us to live freely today. Through His resurrection He broke the power of death.

  • Is Christianity a religion?
  • Where there people created before Adam and Eve?

Ephesians 3:16-19 "I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being..."

The Only Answer

Richard Peifer, Bob Davis

Is Christianity only about having freedom from sin and not to be a slave to sin? Hebrews 2:14-15 tells us that death is the real issue for Jesus work on earth. Listen and know that you can have the hope of Jesus Christ
