“The gospel is saying that, what man cannot do in order to be accepted with God, this God Himself has done for us in the person of Jesus Christ. To be acceptable to God we must present to God a life of perfect and unceasing obedience to his will. The gospel declares that Jesus has done this for us. For God to be righteous he must deal with our sin. This also he has done for us in Jesus. The holy law of God was lived out perfectly for us by Christ, and its penalty was paid perfectly for us by Christ. The living and dying of Christ for us, and this alone is the basis of our acceptance with God” MenPersonsDoneLawOrderJesusChristSinPerfectDealsDyingAcceptanceHolyJesus ChristBasesPaidAcceptedObedienceAcceptableRighteousPenalties Author:Graeme Goldsworthy
“Jesus Christ, as the first-fruit of the Kingdom, began the work of conquering death on an individual basis, but we, as His church, will be the ones to complete the task. Jesus said (Matthew 28:18), "all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth," and the church today has that same power. Death will not be conquered by Jesus returning to earth. It will be conquered when the church stands up boldly and says, "We have dominion over the earth."” FirstsSaidTodayEarthJesusIndividualGivenHeavenChristChurchJesus ChristTasksBasesFruitKingdomsConquerDominionMatthewChurch Today Author:Earl Paulk
“Faith in the biblical sense is substantive, based on the knowledge that the One in whom that faith is placed has proven that He is worthy of that trust.

“Remember God has accepted us. The gospel of grace is a message of breathtaking freedom. It must be embraced with faith and thanksgiving. You are thoroughly accepted just as you are. Jesus Christ is your righteousness and he is never going to change. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. When you wake tomorrow, he will still be your righteousness, before you have done anything to enjoy God's favour. You have to earn nothing. Your spirit needs to bask in the brilliant sunlight of this reality. You need to know it inwardly and celebrate it on a daily basis.” KnowsNeedsStillsDoneRealityTodayRememberSpiritJesusEnjoyChristForeverGraceTomorrowMessagesJesus ChristBasesBrilliantAcceptedYesterdayCelebrateRighteousnessSunlightFavourBreathtaking Author:Terry Virgo
