Today's promise: Colossians 1:21-22 As a new creation, Jesus presents you to God without sin or accusation. God didn't wait for you to clean up your act before He began His work of salvation. This promise describes three ways Christ presents you to God. 1. He presents you holy. 2. He presents you as faultless. 3. He presents you blameless. You are not the person you used to be. God has removed your past and forgiven your sin. Jesus presents you holy, faultless, and blameless before God.

On today's pre-recorded episode, Johnnette Williams reflects on how suffering becomes a pathway to holiness. Through pain, God invites us into a deeper conversion of heart, showing areas in our lives that still need His healing and presence.

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com      Years and years of bodybuilding and now look at you? What happened… more importantly how fast did it happen?    No matter how healthy you are… and BTW Bodybuilders are some of the most unhealthy people in the world. What they eat in nutrition is destroyed by the amount of drugs they put in their system…. Don't get me wrong, you can do steroids and other enhancers and still maintain a safe healthy physique if you are willing to cycle on and off with enough time in between - but most don't. Anyway…. You can be in the best health possible… eat, exercise, drink plenty of water, take supplements, cardio etc… and in only 2 short months lose it all and be extremely unhealthy… I have seen it happen… You have probably seen it happen.    Have you ever heard the saying…  “what have you done for me lately”  We usually use it in a negative way… like Man I have done so much for that guy the past 10 years… but it does not matter, its always what have you done for me lately….    BUT it is actually a biblical concept.   Your past will not make up for your present.    A good beginning is not a guarantee of good ending.    Ez. 18:23, 24 23 “Do you think that I like to see wicked people die? says the Sovereign Lord. Of course not! I want them to turn from their wicked ways and live. 24 However, if righteous people turn from their righteous behavior and start doing sinful things and act like other sinners, should they be allowed to live? No, of course not! All their righteous acts will be forgotten, and they will die for their sins. You do have a personal responsibility!  Your past will not make up for your present.    Its not about Loyalty or brownie points… or God owing you… it is about Holiness.    First lets get one thing straight… God only owes us one thing… judgement and death for being a sinner. We only get what we get because of what God did, not because of what we did.  Hebrews 6:4-6 and 10:26-27 speak of what have you done for me lately…  My point today is this… We see the weakened and sinful in scripture turning around from the disciples to the apostle Paul… they all had diverse sinful backgrounds… but were all marked by getting older and bolder and not older and colder.  What was their prescription for such a faith as this? Very simple, in fact John G Lake spoke of it often. 4 things: Constantly prayed Read Gods word Shared the gospel Prayed in tongues and prophesied over their own lives.    Listen I know we all are thankful for Gods grace and his mercy… I know I need it. But I don't want to casually assume a life based on that for entrance into heaven. I want to walk in Gods power over sin and evil. I want his grace to empower my life so that I can live above sin. 2 Cor. 12:9 God tells Paul his grace is sufficient to overcome his weakness and his suffering. That phrase there actually means more than enough. And we often forget that last sentence in that verse….  - Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.   What have I done today for Christ? I have rested in his power over my weakness. 

Through Christ, the distorted image of God in us is fully restored! We were created in His image, but sin separated us. Now, through the finished work of Jesus, we are separated from sin and set apart for His glory. When we war, we don't fight from an earthly position but from a heavenly one, where victory has already been won. What we bind on Earth is already bound in Heaven, and what we loose is already loosed. Let's walk in this divine authority, radiating His holiness and presence everywhere we go.

Embark On A Sustained Struggle For Holiness! by Shawn Ozbun

Listen!!!

Ted Charles spent over 20 years as a Pentecostal pastor, rooted in a deep evangelical faith. From his early days as a “Bapticostal” believer to leading congregations in the Holiness movement, his life was centered around serving God. But everything changed when he asked one simple question:“If you died tomorrow, where would you go?”This question led him on a soul-searching journey — through Baptist doctrine, Pentecostal revival, debates about the end times, and finally… a seat in a Catholic Mass.

Series: He Loves Us More than He Loves Himself Originally aired 05/25/2025

Sexual immorality has always been a sin with very serious consequences; it defiles everyone involved and makes them unclean. Additionally, under the Law of Moses, even the lawful intimacy of a husband and wife made them temporarily unclean. In Christ, our bodies have been purchased and have become the temple of God. This makes sexual […]

Jesus Followers Should Fear, Respect, and Praise God's Power, Sovereignty, and Holiness; but in Life's Trials They Should “fear not for I {Jesus} am with you always”            MESSAGE SUMMARY: You should fear, respect, and praise God's power, Sovereignty, and Holiness; but, as a Jesus Follower, you should “fear not” in life's trials and tribulations or at your time of judgment. As David's praise tells us in Psalms 103:13: “As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him.”. David models again and again, in Psalms, how we should praise God. For example, in Psalms 146, David says: "Put not your trust in Princes; Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, Oh my soul!". When we are wondering how to praise the Lord, we can read one of David's Psalms to God like David's praises to the Lord in Psalms 112:1-2: “Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in his commandments! His offspring will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.". Also, we learn in Proverbs 1:7, the “fear of the Lord” and “wisdom” are closely linked: “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.". These verses from the Old Testament point to the fear, respect, and praise that God warrants and demands from His power, sovereignty, and Holiness. On the other hand, as we see when the Apostle John quotes Jesus from Revelation 1:17-18, when Jesus, in all His power and Glory, reassures us of God's Grace and His plan for working out the Salvation and Eternal Life for all those that have accepted Jesus as their Savior: “When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. But he laid his right hand on me, saying, ‘Fear not, I am the first and the last, and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades.'”.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you! In Jesus' name, amen.  Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 133). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM RIGHTEOUS IN GOD'S EYES. God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:21 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Revelation 1:17-18; Psalms 118:1-20; Proverbs 1:7; Psalms 73a:1-14.

Come Holy Spirit MESSAGE SUMMARY: Special Introduction – The Spiritual Discipline of Giving: We are challenged by God to bring our whole tithe into the storehouse (church) because God tells us that we cannot out give Him. After all, everything we have is from God. Our gifts to God should be from our first fruits and not our last fruits. Developing the discipline of returning our first fruits to God breaks the hold of materialism on our lives. Today's Message – Come Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit is God Himself. The Holy Spirit is a presence of God in the Trinity of one God – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit indwells us, as our counselor, always pointing to Jesus in truth. People are not convicted and converted in their hearts and minds to become followers of Jesus without the Holy Spirit. Without the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives and in our churches, not much will be accomplished. It is impossible to be a Christian and to live the Christian life without the Holy Spirit. The character of Jesus' followers is manifested through their lives bringing forth the fruits of the Holy Spirit, as presented in Galatians 5:22-23: “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control . . .”. Otherwise, our lives will only reflect the fruit of the flesh as presented in Galatians 5:19-21: “Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these . . .". The Holy Spirit seeks to work through us in a way that those around us see the fruit of the Spirit and not the fruit of the flesh. What do people see when they look at Your life? As followers of Jesus, we need to live through God's gift to us of the power inherent in the Holy Spirit.     TODAY'S PRAYER: Keeping the Sabbath, Lord, will require a lot of changes in the way I am living life. Teach me, Lord, how to take the next step with this in a way that fits my unique personality and situation. Help me to trust you with all that will remain unfinished and to enjoy my humble place in your very large world. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 129). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM RIGHTEOUS IN GOD'S EYES.

In this sermon, Jim Osman explores the effectual call of God and its role in the salvation of sinners. Drawing from 2 Peter 1:3-4, he explains how salvation is not merely a result of hearing the gospel but of being irresistibly drawn by the power and glory of Christ. The effectual call of God transforms the heart, opening spiritual eyes and ears, leading to repentance, faith, and a desire for holiness. This call is central to the believer's new life and identity in Christ. ★ Support this podcast ★

Learn how God is in the “restoration business,” transforming lives from the inside out in this encouraging study from 1 Peter.

Why do purgatory and hell exist? The Catechism teaches us today about the existence and the meaning of purgatory and hell. We learn that purgatory is a transitional state of purification while hell is the state of permanent separation from God. Fr. Mike reminds us that nobody drifts into heaven because “we cannot be united to God unless we freely choose to love him.” Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1030-1037. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Romans 8:15-16 — The Christian may feel the Christian life is filled with burdensome tasks, an endless to-do list. When living in an antagonistic world, the tendency is to turn the faith into nothing more than a higher law. Holiness becomes nothing more than an occupation. To what does this lead? It leads to a wrongful fear of God; a tormented view, seeing God as merely a distant law-giver. This doesn't lead to a life of joy, but rather a spirit of bondage. In this sermon on spiritual bondage from Romans 8:15–17 titled “The Spirit of Bondage,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones addresses this issue through examining the doctrine of adoption. The Christian is invited to call God “abba.” A slave cannot call their taskmaster “father”––only a child can do this. Adoption means that God is not a distant law-giver, but a father who is near. Listen as Dr. Lloyd-Jones explains that desire to live a holy life must not come not from an attempt to appease God. On the contrary, that desire to live a holy life is because He is the father and Christians are His children. And if children, then heirs; heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ. The moment this is realized, everything begins to change.

Under the Law of Moses, if a person came into contact with bodily discharges or skin diseases, that person was unclean and unable to participate in tabernacle worship until they had been purified. They had not sinned by touching the sick, but they were no longer holy. Jesus, on the other hand, is incorruptibly holy. He touched the sick […]

What do Jesus's healings reveal about his ultimate mission? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper turns to John 5:1–24 to show how every miracle points to the deeper healing we need.

Why did Jesus heal? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper opens John 5:1–18 to reveal that Christ's miracles are not just about health but about holiness.

The Lord calls everyone to live a life of surrender, and we have been looking at the various ways God calls people to grow in holiness. Religious life includes the public profession of vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience; members of secular institutes dedicate themselves to living in the world and helping to sanctify it. We also learn that those in societies of apostolic life devote themselves to a particular apostolic purpose without religious vows. These calls to holiness are gifts to the Church and the world.
