Finished!
John 19:30 “When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, ‘It is finished,’ and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.” Jesus’ last words before He died on the cross are recorded in John 19 above: “It is finished.” But what did He mean by this? What was finished? The answer? All that He came…

Let these people go!
John 18:7-8 “So he asked them again, ‘Whom do you seek?’ And they said, ‘Jesus of Nazareth.’ Jesus answered, ’I told you that I am he. So, if you seek me, let these men go.’” The mob who was seeking Jesus in the account above was seeking Him for one purpose: to kill Him. They wanted nothing more than…

A Changed Life
Titus 2:13-14 “our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.” Have you ever wished you could change someone? Are there people that really irritate you sometimes, or maybe all the time? And maybe…

Look!
Isaiah 45:22 “Look to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth.” Recently I heard an account of how Charles Spurgeon became a Christian. Charles Spurgeon, who lived in the late 1800’s, was one of the greatest preachers of the gospel that the world has ever known. As a young man, Charles heard…

What’s your view of the cross?
1 Corinthians 1:18 “For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” What’s your view of the cross? Is it a nice symbol to you that marks a Christian church, or perhaps it’s a pretty symbol to wear…
