This is what we preach

Both the Law and the Gospel Show God's Glory, So what is the Difference?

Scripture Verses
  • 2 Corinthians 3:6-18

While the law brings condemnation and death, the gospel brings the Spirit and righteousness with a far greater glory. The Bible shows us that the law's glory was temporary, but the gospel's glory is everlasting and transformative. Where the law hardens hearts and places a veil between people and God, the gospel removes that veil, bringing freedom and transforming believers into the image of Christ with ever-increasing glory.

How Do We Glorify God to Those Who Treat Us Badly and Those Who Treat Us Well?

Scripture Verses
  • Romans 12:14-21

The Bible teaches us to bless those who persecute us and not repay evil with evil, showing God's love even to our enemies. We glorify God by rejoicing with those who rejoice and mourning with those who mourn, living in harmony with all people regardless of their position. Rather than seeking revenge, we overcome evil with good, trusting that God will handle justice while we focus on showing His love to everyone.

You Are Blessed to Know Your Blessings

Scripture Verses
  • Luke 6:17-26

Though we come to God as spiritual beggars, He has made us rich with the kingdom of God. The Bible teaches us that even when we hunger and weep in this world, God promises satisfaction and joy to those who trust in Him. Despite the world's hatred and rejection of believers, we can rejoice because our reward in heaven is great, and God's eternal embrace awaits us.

How to Get People Into the Lord's Livewell

Scripture Verses
  • Luke 5:1-11

Jesus demonstrated His power by filling the disciples' nets with fish after they had caught nothing all night, showing that when we follow His instructions, miraculous things happen. Peter recognized his sinfulness in the presence of Jesus' power, yet Jesus called him to a greater purpose. The Bible teaches us that just as Jesus transformed fishermen into fishers of people, He empowers us to bring others to Him when we follow His guidance and trust in His power.

Be Comforted That Jesus' First Miracle Provided for a Family

Scripture Verses
  • John 2:1-11

In the account of Jesus turning water into wine, we see that He blesses us even when we don't know what to ask for, and He often blesses us abundantly. Take comfort in knowing that Jesus cares about your needs and desires to bless you and those around you, even in areas of Christian freedom.
