Being Simple Is Not Easy!

We tend to be complicated.

God’s heart for us is simple. He loves us and wants us to be free.

As born again Christians we only have two traps to avoid really – the flesh and legalism.

The “way of the cross” is the only path that leads me safely between these two pits. The Holy Spirit helps us walk this road.

Walking the narrow road, being lead by the Holy Spirit is a simple summary of Christian life. It’s not complicated.

It’s the only way to reach our goal of being changed, bit by bit, so that the reality of my attitude of heart resembles Jesus.

The Apostle Paul summed up so much when he said…

“Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith”

1 Timothy 1:5

There’s only one way to this place – the road of the cross.
All my bible knowledge, Greek and Hebrew can’t help me if I’m not willing to walk this simple road. In fact nothing can and it all begins in our homes.

Our Hope Is In Jesus Christ. If Only We Would See…

Life with out hope is dark.

True hope is invaluable.

Hope by it’s very nature goes against the reality of what we see so it needs a foundation.

seedling on dry ground

Something immovable and truthful that anchors it… otherwise hope would be hopeless.

There’s a mindset that rules in this world. It pins our hope to politics and policies, to education and careers, to relationships and money… the list is endless.. but they all have one thing in common… they can all be shaken and they will all fail. A great, empty, hopeless deception.

As Christians we’re called to be “strangers and foreigners” who are “passing through.” This doesn’t mean “disconnected and isolated” but rather people who don’t place our hope in this world.

Our hope is in Jesus Christ. If only we would see…

Ephesians 1:17-18
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,

Hebrews 6:19
This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil,

Prophecy Of The End Time

“At that time Michael shall stand up,
The great prince who stands watch over the sons of your people;
And there shall be a time of trouble,
Such as never was since there was a nation,
Even to that time.
And at that time your people shall be delivered,
Every one who is found written in the book.
And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake,
Some to everlasting life,
Some to shame and everlasting contempt.
Those who are wise shall shine
Like the brightness of the firmament,
And those who turn many to righteousness
Like the stars forever and ever.

Daniel 12:1-4
