Restoring Years is physically, humanly, naturally impossible. You can restore finances, old houses, old cars, old furniture, broken relationships, BUT time is something you can never get back…or is it? God is promising the impossible!
John continues to show that in the end what you believe affects the way you behave, and that if you believe that you were loved (and you will) you will love.
Happy Father's Day! John shows us the Father's love, the Father's character and the character of the adopted children He loves. Loved people love people.
The believer has the power to conquer the experience of sin in their daily lives by "walking in the light" and submitting to an attitude of joyful obedience. When we do sin, we have a Champion in the Lord Jesus Christ, seated at the right hand of the Father, who faithfully intercedes for us.
One of the most profound assurances of our faith is that what we believe had to be taught to us by God, so if we know it at all, He taught us and if He taught us, we are His.
The Bible teaches that the nature of the flesh is prideful, selfish, and egotistical. His Word shows that Salvation takes place at the conjuncture of humility and belief. The epistle of Jude to the 12 lost tribes of Israel is a beautiful reminder of what it means to be humble in the spirit of Christ.
