For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1:18 (NKJV) Do you want to experience more of the miraculous? The key to walking in incredible love, joy, peace, freedom and the promises of God for your life lies in understanding what happened from the cross to the throne. If I were to ask several individuals what they felt Jesus did for us, it would be interesting. Most Christians would say something about the forgiveness of our sins, and they would be right—but only partly so. As amazing as it is to have our sins forgiven, there is so much more! This month, we’re going to …
La Clave para lo Milagroso
For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1:18 (NKJV) ¿Quiere experimentar más de lo milagroso? La clave para caminar en el increíble amor, gozo, paz, libertad y en las promesas de Dios para su vida, está en la comprensión de lo que sucede desde la cruz hacia el trono. Si tuviera que preguntar a varias personas lo que sintieron que Jesús hizo por nosotros, sería muy interesante. La mayoría de los cristianos diría algo sobre el perdón de nuestros pecados, y estarían en lo cierto –pero solo en parte. ¡Tan increíble cómo es tener el perdón de nuestros pecados, lo es también saber …
La Obra Realizada por Jesús
But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. Ephesians 2:13 (NKJV) El propósito por el cual Jesús fue a la cruz es la familia. De hecho, desde el comienzo, Dios nos creó para ser su familia. En la versión de Efesios 1:3-6 en la versión de la Biblia de “El Mensaje”, dice, “mucho antes de crear la tierra, él nos escogió, nos había elegido como el centro de su amor, para ser hechos santos y sin defecto por medio de su amor”. Cuando la humanidad se separó de Dios debido a que Adán escogió no seguirlo a Él, Dios no nos abandonó. Efesios 1:3-6 continúa diciendo, “Mucho antes, Él decidió adoptarnos dentro de …
THE FINISHED WORK OF JESUS
But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. Ephesians 2:13 (NKJV) The main purpose behind why Jesus went to the cross is family. In fact, right from the beginning, God created us to be His family. The Message Bible version of Ephesians 1:3–6 says, “Long before he laid down earth’s foundations, he had us in mind, had settled on us as the focus of his love, to be made whole and holy by his love.” When mankind was separated from God because Adam chose not to follow Him, God didn’t give up on us. Ephesians 1:3–6 goes on to say, “Long, long ago he decided to adopt us into his family through …
Not perfect, but excellent
You are more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey. Psalm 76:4 (NKJV) God does everything with excellence. It’s His nature. Psalms 76:4 says He is “glorious and excellent,” and He has given us the desire to grow, excel and become more like Him. Many have a problem with excellence because they have entangled it with acceptance. Talking about excellence is a sore point for them because they feel as if they can never measure up. The truth is that we are all imperfect. We have good intentions, but something happens on the path between intentions and reality. Even the apostle Paul felt the same way, saying “I decide to do good, but I don’t really do it; I decide not to do bad, but then I …
