In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Exodus 7–13 and reveal how the story of the plagues and the Passover is ultimately an Easter story about Jesus Christ. What begins with Moses standing before Pharaoh unfolds into a powerful reminder of who God is — a God who patiently reaches, teaches, and invites. Even through the plagues, the Lord is not just delivering Israel, but continually giving opportunities for hearts to soften and recognize Him. At the center of it all is the Passover. A lamb without blemish, blood on the doorposts, and a people being saved from death — all pointing directly to Jesus Christ. This moment becomes more than a historical rescue; it becomes a pattern of redemption. The same way the Israelites were delivered, we are reminded that Christ is the Lamb who saves, whose sacrifice allows death to pass over us and gives us a new beginning. This episode invites us to see Easter more clearly — not just as a single event, but as a story written throughout scripture. A story of a God who sees, hears, and remembers, and who is always working to rescue His people. Because Easter is the promise that through Jesus Christ, deliverance is real, redemption is possible, and a new life can begin.

Acts 2:22-24; 2:36-3:1022“Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know— 23this Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men. 24God raised him up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it.36Let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.”37Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” 38And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” 40And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation.” 41So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls.42And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. 43And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. 44And all who believed were together and had all things in common. 45And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need. 46And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts, 47praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.1Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour. 2And a man lame from birth was being carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple that is called the Beautiful Gate to ask alms of those entering the temple. 3Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive alms. 4And Peter directed his gaze at him, as did John, and said, “Look at us.” 5And he fixed his attention on them, expecting to receive something from them. 6But Peter said, “I have no silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!” 7And he took him by the right hand and raised him up, and immediately his feet and ankles were made strong. 8And leaping up, he stood and began to walk, and entered the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising God. 9And all the people saw him walking and praising God, 10and recognized him as the one who sat at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, asking for alms. And they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
This powerful message takes us to the very first sermon Jesus preached, found in Mark chapter 1, where He makes a stunning announcement: 'The time has come. The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news.' What strikes us immediately is how direct and disruptive Jesus is right from the start. He doesn't ease into His ministry with comfortable platitudes or gentle encouragement. Instead, He declares that a King has arrived, and when a king arrives, everything changes. We're confronted with a fundamental question that each of us must answer: Who sits on the throne of our lives? The message challenges our cultural mantras of 'follow your heart' and 'live your truth' by reminding us that the throne of our hearts was never ours to occupy in the first place. Repentance, we discover, isn't about self-hatred or shame—it's actually beautiful. It's the act of getting up from a seat we were never meant to sit in and allowing the rightful King to take His place. This isn't bad news; it's an invitation into abundant life. The King who calls us to surrender is the same King who surrendered everything for us at the cross. When we submit to Jesus, we don't lose our identity—we gain it. We become sons and daughters of the King, with full access to relationship with Him. This message reminds us that the gospel is first about what God has already done for us, not what we must do for Him.Subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@CelebrateChurchCelebrate Church is led by Pastor Noah Rollins.

In this episode, Dr. E answers a question about universalism, free will, and predestination. Scripture says God desires all to come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9; 1 Timothy 2:4). But Jesus also says many take the wide path to destruction. So how do we reconcile those truths? Does God's will fail? Are we given the option to accept or reject salvation? If God is omnipotent, why doesn't He save everyone? Does He desire salvation for all but prioritize something else — like justice or glory? Dr. Easley explains the difference between God's sovereign will and the universal call to salvation. He walks through key passages like Ephesians 1, John 6, and Romans 9 and addresses the tension between divine sovereignty and human responsibility. Rather than forcing a philosophical solution, Dr. Easley encourages believers to hold both biblical truths faithfully. From our limited perspective, we see tension. From God's eternal perspective, His will is perfect. If you've wrestled with election, predestination, Calvinism, Arminianism, or the question “Why aren't all saved?” — this episode is for you.

Saved From Judgments (1) (audio) David Eells – 3/11/26 I'm going to share some older prophecies with you about the judgments God is sending on the rebellious apostates. We often receive scriptures in our morning prayer meetings of these warnings. Judgments on America and Its Ministries Shirley Hinkle - 11/07/2007 (David's notes in red) Thank you for your website. It has been a wealth of insight and revelation into the Word of God for me and my friends with whom I share your site. I have never shared these or other dreams that I have had in the past with any website/ministry, but only with five close friends. One of the prayer warriors in our church, whom I shared the dreams with this last week, said, “You must send it to Brother David Eells. You see, I was in prayer Sunday morning and God spoke to my heart and said, “Remember the dreams of the five judgments? IT'S NOW! It's not only the false, sinful church leadership that is under judgment, but judgment on this nation, America, that you are seeing fulfilled.” (In the dreams below God used individuals to represent this apostate leadership. These judgments on them will also judge America. This is judgment is on the secular and religious harlot. Update 3/11/26 - God is now raising up new leadership with power.) Because of the nature of the dreams, I took out the name of the pastor and the people associated with the church where we went for five years. (Shirley is typed as a prophetess and the true church in some of these dreams.) Dream - First of 5 Judgments - 07/03/2005 I dreamed that our former pastor walked into the room where a group of us were standing. I wondered to myself, what is he doing here? I thought, maybe we are to pray for him, so I walked over to him and laid my hand on his head. I said to him, “You are full of lust and pornography”. (I once saw the statistics of how many ministers were into this, and I was shocked.) As I said these words, his head turned to mush under my hand (a mind corrupted by sin). I pulled my hand back, revolted, and turned to walk away, and as I did, he leered and sneered at me. I started to wake up and that is when I saw he was a shell of a man full of demonic spirits. (This represents a generation of apostates, meaning back-slidden, ministers as in the rest of the dreams.) God spoke into my heart and said, “Romans chapters 1 & 3. As he stole from My people, I am taking his mind from him; He is given over to those spirits. (Update 3/11/26 – This has been happening) This is the first of 5 judgments I have shown you”. Dream - Judgment # 2 of 5 - 07/11/2005 All of these people were in booths at a restaurant (Churches where spiritual food, as in the Word, is supposed to be fed). I walked in and it was the congregation of a former church. I began to go from table to table under the anointing and exposing all of the lies of the teachings and sins in the lives of the people. Some people looked at me like, “What are you doing?” They had no comprehension at all. Others said, “Yes, we see it,” and then others were getting very mad, angry at me for telling and exposing all the lies. I looked behind me, and there were 3 of the prayer warriors who had left the church at the same time, as one person, and they were represented as who they are in real life. I raised my right arm to heaven and began to pray in the spirit with a loud voice and with authority. Then, as I was walking out, I turned to the people and said, “The associate pastor was never supposed to leave his wife for the other woman. He played the harlot. He sold his body to prostitution. HE LEFT HER!” (Another common problem among apostate pastors.) Then the next scene in my dream, my husband and I are walking down a hallway away from the restaurant (I.e. away from their teachings). We could hear the former pastor from the other side yelling. We knew he was mad at me for exposing him. He was yelling really loud as he came around the corner, but the weird thing was, he was walking on his knees. His legs were twisted up behind him, and he was being led by his head usher. (I.e. Spiritually crippled and unable to walk with the Lord.) For a split second, I felt pity for this man who was all disfigured, and then I saw his face as he was yelling. My husband and I just stood there quietly watching at first. This pastor was so mad and yelling so loudly. His hair was all matted and snarled, with his face all contorted. Then all of a sudden I looked at him and said, “Everything you have stolen from My people (which is their walk with the Lord), I have taken from you. Judgment has come to your house”. I then brought my right hand down like a gavel was in it. This pastor was nothing but blackness and darkness. This was judgment # 2 of 5 that God had shown me. Dream - Judgment 3 & 4 of 5 - 08/08/2005 I dreamed last night of a lady (the true church) in a church with a lot of people she knew. Some of them walked up to her and asked if she would like to go on a road trip with them; she said yes and got in the car. As the others were getting in, they were snickering and laughing behind her back (mocking her). When they got down the road, they took out a needle and injected it into the woman (filled her with false doctrine) to alter her mind. They took her to a house (apostate church) and it was full of children (of God). The woman was then tormented in many ways. She kept trying to hide the children in different parts of the house so that they would not be harmed. (Trying to save them from the false doctrine) She knew that the ultimate goal of these people was to kill her and the children (spiritually) after they had their fun and sport with her. A man walked into the house. The woman went up to him and said, “We have to save the children. These people are going to kill us”. He just started laughing at her. It was then that she knew he was one of them. She then hid the children in different parts of the house again. Now, instead of me seeing this lady, I am her (the true church), and I am walking down a hallway. I come to an elderly woman (the apostate church showing signs of years under the curse) and I say to her with a loud voice, “The Lord says unto you, you are now forever separated from the presence of God; you will no longer experience the presence of God”. My right hand came down like a gavel, and I said, “This is the Judgment of God on you”. (Update 3/11/26 – These churches are dead now) She turned from me and walked away; then turned to come back, and I saw it was the pastor's sister-in-law. She was like a mad woman, all crazy. I turned and walked away from her, and as I did, I said, “Lord, what was that all about?” He spoke to me and said, “That is the Church that holds the Truth in unrighteousness (truth they refuse to walk in) and turns my grace into lasciviousness (which is a license to sin).” As I am walking away, I come to a young lady who is not one of the children because they are hidden in different parts of the house. I say to her, “The Lord says unto you, I will never again look upon you with favor or content. You will toil and labor hard all the rest of your days (the curse in Gen.3:19). This is the judgment unto you”. My right hand then came down like a gavel. As the girl turned to walk away from me, I saw it was a teenager in the congregation, the daughter of the church secretary. As I was waking up from this dream, the Lord spoke into my heart, “This is the judgment #3 & 4 of the 5 that I showed you”. I asked the Lord, “What did the teenager represent?” and He quickly answered, “Rebellion; the rebellious ones”. The lady in the beginning is the true church, and the enemy is trying to steal the mind of God's people, by altering their thinking and doping them with falsehoods. (that please the flesh) They are laughing and mocking the True Church of the Living God. The children represent the innocent that God has hidden under his wings, till the storm passes by. (God has hidden some innocents in the apostate church, which He will deliver. Isa 26:20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. ) Dream - Judgment # 5 of 5 - 09/30/2005 I dreamt last night that we were at our former church. They were having a camp meeting. I was volunteering in the kitchen (where the spiritual food of teaching is prepared), and the pastor's wife (representing the apostate church) walked up to me and said that someone was very mad at me for being here. She said, “You are not supposed to be here”. I said that all I was trying to do was to help. She never said to stay or even tried to defend me. As I was sitting there, a woman walked up to the pastor's wife (the apostate church) and said to her... “It's beginning to rain, You are a flower that will die, Where your petals fall, There they will lie”. (great falling away) My friends who were standing with me started weeping, went over and hugged her goodbye; I stayed, watching and weeping. I tried to warn, to explain, but there was nothing to say. The pastor's wife looked at me with sadness and a knowing. I said to her, “All I know is that I love God with all of my heart, and I know you do too”. She then began to weep. (The church who loves God in their born-again spirit but does not love Him enough to obey so that their soul is born again will die. Rom.8:13 for if ye live after the flesh, ye must die; but if by the Spirit ye put to death the deeds of the body, ye shall live. 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. Joh.14:15 If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments. 1Pe.1:22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from the heart fervently: 23 having been begotten [born] again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth. 24 For, All flesh is as grass, And all the glory thereof as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower falleth: 25 But the word of the Lord abideth for ever. As was said in the prophetic poem, the flower, a symbol of all that is beautiful about the flesh, will fall. What people think is beautiful about their fleshly religion will die.) As we were leaving and driving away from the Church, it began to rain, on both sides of the road, the flowers were dead and the animals too. I looked at my husband and started weeping so hard (The grace of life will be taken away from the apostate church in their idolatry with the flesh.). He said to me, “My brother (representing the apostate church) is dying, so it must still be before February”. I said, “I know”. (My husband's brother had died the year before, in February from bladder cancer.) This is Judgment #5. The first 5 judgment dreams on apostate ministries are coming to pass now. As the Lord said, “IT'S NOW!” This was said in 2005. The apostate ministries are losing their minds and walking as cripples more every day because this is what they have done to God's people. Since history or “His-story” always repeats, very soon this will be spoken of them as it was of their forefathers: Mat.13:10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? 11 And he answered and said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. 12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he hath. 13 Therefore speak I to them in parables; because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. 14 And unto them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall in no wise understand; And seeing ye shall see, and shall in no wise perceive: 15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, And their ears are dull of hearing, And their eyes they have closed; Lest haply they should perceive with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart, And should turn again, And I should heal them. (As in Jesus' day, these same ones will persecute the true church of the “called out ones”.) Here are a few more dreams Shirley sent us: Dream - 10/20/2007 - Baby Boy - First Tribulation Judgment I walked into a church filled with people. I recognized people from our former church, all standing around talking and carrying on with their programs. As I walked down the hall, I saw a small baby boy in the trash. I picked him up and said, “You don't belong here in the trash”. (This shows the apostate church's disregard for the fruit of Christ revealed in the man-child body in their midst. It also represents their hatred for the first-fruits Man-child ministry [Rev.12:5,6] that is to lead this church into that fruit, just as their forefathers did in Jesus' day.) As I was taking him out of the trash, the pastor's wife was there and was so mad at me. She said to me, “You think you are going to get away with this? You are going to pay!” (They hate those who value the fruit of Christ just as they did in the Book of Acts. Those who come out from among them will take the fruit of Christ with them.) I took him outside the church and walked over to my husband to show him the baby. The baby was playing and cooing in my arms. I was so upset that he had been thrown away like that, discarded in the trash. As I was playing with the baby and taking care of him and loving on him, my husband said, “You have to take him back”. I said it wasn't right that they put him in the trash, but my husband said, “He has to go back”. (Those who love the fruit will see Him in their lives. Like the Shulamite bride in Song of Solomon, they will take Him back to their mother church.) SoS.3:3 The watchmen that go about the city found me; [To whom I said], Saw ye him whom my soul loveth? 4 It was but a little that I passed from them, When I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, Until I had brought him into my mother's house, And into the chamber of her that conceived me. As I was walking back to the church, I had to cross a street; the cars were flying past me on both sides. I was in the middle of the intersection and was almost getting run over by each car that passed (those on the broad road will not appreciate the greatness in their midst). I held the baby close and kept trying to get across. As I walked back into the church to take the baby back, I was so sad. Nobody saw me or acknowledged that the baby had been returned and saved from the trash. They continued with their programs they were all doing. (The return of the man-child or His fruit in the bride's heart will not be appreciated by most when He returns to give a witness to them as Jesus did. This will be the first judgment of the tribulation in Revelation 6:1,2 -- the White Horse Rider, which brings all of the other riders upon the earth. This will be as when Moses came to set Israel free from bondage to the Egyptians. He brought all the judgments to accomplish this.) Josh and the baby boy represent both the fruit of Christ in their midst that they have rejected and the first-fruits Man-child ministry who is to lead them through the wilderness tribulation. As the Lord said, this is a “judgment on this nation, America,” for the apostate church has not represented Christ to them in being the salt needed to preserve them. This false church is leading America to destruction. Dream - 09/28/2007 - America's Judgment I walked into a large convention center full of young people. They were in groups all over the building. Some were standing and talking, others were bowed in groups in prayer. God spoke to my heart and said that His Holy Spirit is searching the heart of America. His Holy Spirit is going throughout this nation searching out those who are seeking His face in this time of turmoil. Searching this generation, for it is the last generation... And it shall not pass until we see the fulfillment of His Word. As I walked among them, I could hear them talking to each other and saying, “What do you think? Who will you vote for?” and others were giving their opinion on the matters of our world. God then spoke to me and said they are going by human reasoning; they are not looking to Me, the Author and Finisher of their Faith; they are searching out man's ways and not My ways. As I was walking among them, Hillary Clinton walked into the building and started walking among them also. God spoke into my heart and said, “This is Romans 1 being fulfilled in your sight. This is the first judgment coming into being on this nation in its FULLNESS. This nation is being given over.” God showed me that Clinton also was getting a feel of where they stood and what they were thinking and talking about. That we as a people in this nation are being marked, and we will be known for what we stand for in these final days. The ones who are weeping and mourning, standing in Truth and Righteousness, will be separated and marked as in Ezekiel 9. I then walked up to her and said, “You will be put in office, but it will bring this country down.” I knew that she represented in the spirit this nation's final apostasy against God in its fullness. (This was a warning! Although she served herself in many offices, including first political lady [ Link! ], the highest office was denied her because of urgent prayers for mercy.) Abandonment of a previous loyalty, the woman, this nation leaving her natural affection for God, her family, her children, given over to her lusts and vile affections. I then said, “This is our judgment!” I said this very loudly and pleading, knowing we are in judgment... I then said, “Tell America to REPENT!” But she just looked past me like I wasn't there and hadn't said anything to her. She walked away with a smirk on her face. God spoke into my heart and said, “Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them”. (Rom.1:32) Dream - 10/01/2007 - Blow the Trumpet, Sound the Alarm, Our Judgment Has Come. My husband and I were standing by the riverbank; it was flowing over the top like a waterfall, so pretty. I knew that it was America in her false sense of security and prosperity -- everything flowing along so smoothly. I said with a loud voice, “It is getting ready to overflow (the U.S. leaving her God-given natural boundaries) like never before and bring destruction. It will destroy everything. (In Jeremiah 25, Babylon, which is called the great eagle [U.S.] in Ezekiel 17, brought the cup of wrath to all nations and then they brought it to her. “When the enemy comes in like a flood”. After the Man-child is anointed in Rev 6:2 comes World War. Rev.6:4 And another horse came forth, a red horse: and to him that sat thereon it was given to take peace from the earth, and that they should slay one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.) Everything that the people have put their trust in, in one moment it is going to be completely swept away before their eyes. God said, “Blow the trumpet in Zion. Sound the alarm!” I turned to my right and said, “Blow the trumpet”. My husband then picked up a trumpet and put it to his mouth, and started to blow. God is asking the men of God to once again put the trumpet to their mouths and blow, sound the alarm, proclaim the Truth. To warn the people to get their eyes off of this world and all that it holds, for it (that is, peace, security and prosperity) is all getting ready to be taken from them. God then said again, “Warn the people, it will destroy everything. Blow the trumpet!” Again, I turned to my right and said, “Blow the trumpet, warn the people”. My husband continued to blow the trumpet. God spoke to my heart and said, “Don't stop warning, don't stop telling, don't stop!” People were walking around like nothing was going to happen. Some were getting very angry with me for yelling in a loud voice. I recognized some of the people. My husband continued to blow the trumpet. Again, God spoke to my heart, “Even if the people whom you know don't like it and get angry with you, you must never stop blowing the trumpet! You must always proclaim Truth, no matter what happens”. I then knew that this was the fulfillment of the judgment that God had told me... He spoke to me and said, “A nation that forgets God is given over and this is the judgment... Deuteronomy 28 (which is the curse on the rebellious)... Your houses, your land, your children, your possessions, your freedom, your very lives will be taken from you in judgment.” Flood of Judgment G.C.- 04/16/2008 (David's notes in red) I had one of the most vivid and real dreams in recent memory. In this dream, I was told by God that a great flood would destroy the world. He told me this before it even happened. As the days went by, after I had received His message, water started covering the Earth. The source of the water did not seem to be rainwater but came from the ground. (I recall that in the flood account of Noah, some of the water came from the fountains of the deep and this is what was happening in my dream.) It seemed like for weeks the water covered the world and after each passing day, the people had to abandon homes and buildings and move toward higher ground. I was just in awe of what was happening and tried my best to warn the people that this was God's judgment and that they needed to repent to be saved. I recall that I was never scared or frightened because of the fact that I had been warned before this started to happen, which gave me comfort. I spent the last days pleading with people about repentance but very few took heed. The last thing I remember is that I was at one of the highest points of land, and the water kept rising. I woke up before I could find out the outcome of the dream. I know that another great flood will not occur, but I do feel this was symbolic. Spiritually, a flood of judgment will cover the earth; it will come out of the earth from hell. The demons will administer the legal curse of the waters of the Word on the unrepentant. In the natural, we have seen mass flooding, fires, hurricanes, and large earthquakes all around the world, some man made, and the Tribulation hasn't even arrived. Refuge from Judgment Sister R. from CA - 11/15/2010 (David's notes in red) I was outside (I am not sure of the place). I looked up at the heavens and noticed that suddenly the clouds turned dark. They were storm clouds. (Observing coming bad events from heaven, judgments, tribulations, and trials are near, and we can see them coming.) Then one opened up and the water gushed out, as if someone had poured a bucket of water out of it. (Sudden destructions from heaven whether through man or nature.) Then suddenly, the clouds of this water turned into this huge tidal wave. (Huge destructive events from heaven.) I realized that I could not outrun it. So, I ran into this building (I believe it was a hotel). (By our own strength we cannot escape. The hotel is the house of God. As with a hotel, we are individual buildings that are “builded together” to make up one building, His house [Ephesians 2:19-22]. Symbolizing revival. Many people find their way into the Kingdom as a refuge, an ark, from the wave, which represents the judgment on this world. 1Co.4:11 Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwelling-place.) I was with a group of people and we all went to the upper floors of the building. (A spiritual place of safety in heavenly places in Christ. Psa.94:22 But the LORD hath been my high tower, And my God the rock of my refuge.) The water came into the building, and we had to go to higher floors for safety. (Waters of judgment will drive God's people higher in the refuge of Christ as Psalm 91 shows.) At one point, the water flooded onto the same floor where I was with this group of people. (We will see and share the experiences and overcome through faith.) I thought I was going to die, but I had peace because I knew that I was going to be with the Lord. (Trusting the Lord with life and death. Job 13:15 Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him.) But the floor we were on (the side of this building where we were) had an elevator and a place where we could reach safety. (The elevator is the rest. You don't have to attempt to save yourselves by your own works; just get closer to God by grace through faith in Him.) When the floods came into this floor, not only could I see this elevator, but there was higher ground on this floor where we could step up to reach safety. (Praise the Lord! He provides a place of refuge every step of the way as in Psa.91.) We had working cell phones and light in the hotel. One person, I don't know who, received a phone call. (We have the ability to pray and abide in the Light of the Scriptures. “Working” cell phones mean effective communication with each other and the Lord.) I thought it was strange that we always had light because normally, if that situation had really happened, the electricity would go out. (There was light in Goshen when the rest of Egypt had none. The Lord will not withdraw His light or power in judgment situations. Do not fear, no matter what form it takes. The Lord will give great assurance.) During the entire dream, I had peace. Impending Judgment on America From a prophet friend in East Florida: (I do not doubt that some of these judgments below will be lessened or done away with.) Vision 1: The Lord took me to the streets of America, and I saw the cities on fire. We have many millions of Muslims in America, and when the war breaks out in the Holy Land, and when America gets involved, they will burn America to the ground. I saw Muslim women coming into America and in their inner body parts, vials of anthrax and bio chemicals. I saw 180 million Americans die in a 72-hour period, then I saw New York, Florida, Nevada, Texas, and California nuked; we will be invaded. Russia and China will do it. (From other dreams I believe this will be close to the end of the tribulation. From famous visions and dreams, such as Washington's, Dumitru Duduman's, A.A. Allens, on our site, we know the righteous will overcome and have victory.) Vision 2: The Lord took me in the spirit to outer space, and I saw very dim stars. Then the lights came on, and I saw a huge asteroid, brown in color coming to planet earth, the asteroid turning over and over like tumbling. Vision 3: The Lord took me in the spirit, and I drove down the east coast of Florida and up the west coast, and when I was in Orlando, Florida - the Lord cut Florida in half, and I said, “Lord, have mercy.” and He said, “No more mercy.” And the second time I said, “Lord, have mercy.” He said, “No more mercy.” I asked the Lord why He is doing this, and He said, “Death of the innocents”. I saw from Kissimmee, Florida, to Miami underwater, then the Lord showed me portable buildings stacked like a train, all connected together. The buildings were full of people with legs and arms missing. I ran into the buildings, and there was no end to the buildings. Vision 4: I saw an asteroid race right by Florida and go north; what a horrible sound, and it hit us. Then I saw helicopters with men carrying guns, and when they came to me, I disappeared. Later, I was somewhere else, and I put out my hand, and an apple was there and I ate it. The Lord will take care of his true servants, don't worry. Vision 5: I was in a red suit and riding in a red car, and something was holding me from passing and going to the sea. (Covered in the red blood we are protected from the peoples, tribes, nations, and tongues.) Then they moved away, and I got to the sea; I dropped my cell phone, and I went into the sea and entered a building that was very strong and safe. (Spiritual Mount Zion is a place of safety in the midst of tribulation.) Interpretation: I have a great call on my life, Isaiah 63, 64, and 65. Red is the blood of Christ and power; the seas are the people for the harvest. The building is Christ and the cell phone is a connection to this world. We are to be led by the spirit and hearing God's voice and not be sold out to the world. God's Kingdom is not of this world. I died 17 years ago when I received the Holy Ghost and I'm a new creation in Christ Jesus. We must all go that way and we will do exploits for the end time harvest. Jesus said we will do greater things than He because He will send the Holy Ghost - Mark 16:17. Be one of them and give God all the glory. So, with all these judgments the Lord is bringing, we can have complete peace, rest, protection, and His provision as we believe and confess the Gospel. The Real, Free Gospel David Eells God cannot fail, but we can hinder His works with our own. Jesus told his disciples, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees (Mat.16:6). They understood this to mean their teaching (verse 12). Their teaching that was so dangerous was salvation by self-works (Gal.2:16; 5:1-6). In explaining this in Mat.16:9,10 Jesus said, “Do you not perceive, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets (12) you took up? Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets (7) you took up?” Notice that the more loaves they provided of their own supply, the fewer were fed, and there were less baskets of leftovers. Jesus' obvious point was that the more you work, the less God works. Salvation in any form is by grace, which is unmerited or unearned. “For by grace have ye been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, that no man should glory”. (Epe.2:8-9). The word “saved” here is translated from the Greek word “sozo” and is used in Luk.7:50 for the saving of the soul. In Luk.8:48, it is translated “made thee whole” for healing of the body. In Luk.8:36, it is translated “made whole” for deliverance from demons. In Mat.8:25, it is translated “save” for protection from danger. You see, “saved” covers every curse, and it is not of our works. Jesus “became a curse for us” so that we might have “the blessing of Abraham” (Gal.3:13,14). The all-inclusive curse in Deu.28 was put upon him. I remind you that Epe.2:8 says in the original Greek: “by grace have ye been saved”, meaning it happened at the cross. The wilderness is a completely safe and secure place for the “believer” because everything has already been provided there. Our faith in the promises is the very substance that the desired need is made from. (Heb.11:1) Now faith is assurance (or substance) of [things] hoped for, a conviction of things not seen. The reason Jesus said, “All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye receive (Greek: “received”) them, and ye shall have them” (Mar.11:24), is because all of our provision was accomplished at the cross. Notice in the following verses that all things have been received and that the only thing left is for us to believe it. Also notice the past tense of our sacrificial provision in the following verses: (Epe.2:8) for by grace have ye been saved through faith; (1Pe.2:24) who his own self bare our sins in his body ... by whose stripes we were healed; (Col.1:13) who delivered us out of the power of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love; (2Co.5:18) ... who reconciled us to himself; (Gal.2:20) I have been crucified with Christ, and it's no longer I that live, but Christ liveth in me; (Gal. 3:13) Christ redeemed us from the curse; (1Pe.1:3) ... the Father ... begat us again ... by the resurrection of Jesus Christ; (Heb.10:10) We ... have been sanctified ...; (14) He hath perfected forever them that are sanctified; (Epe.1:3) ... who hath blessed us with every spiritual blessing, and God in (2Pe.1:3) hath granted unto us all things. Jesus told us in His day which, of course was accomplished in the past that “Now shall the prince of this world be cast out” (Joh.12:31); “but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world” (Joh.16:33); “It is finished” (Joh.19:30). This is why we are to believe we have received. The devil and the curse were conquered. We were saved, healed, delivered, and provided for. That is why Paul said, “my God shall supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Phl.4:19). Redemption from the curse and provision for life are truly accomplished at the cross! In fact, God's “works were finished from the foundation of the world” (Heb.4:3), when He spoke the plan into existence. The only thing left is for the true sons of God to enter into those works by faith, believing they have received. Since the works are finished, we should believe and rest from our own works to save, heal, provide, and deliver ourselves. This is rest in the wilderness on the grounds of God's promises. (Heb.4:3) For we who have believed do enter into that rest. That is a spiritual Sabbath rest. (Heb.4:9) There remaineth therefore a sabbath rest (Greek: sabbatismos, “keeping of rest”) for the people of God. This constant “keeping of rest” every day through the past tense promises is our New Testament spiritual Sabbath. (10) For he that is entered into his rest hath himself also rested from his works, as God did from his. This rest is to believe these past tense promises. (Heb.4:1) Let us fear therefore, lest haply, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you should seem to have come short of it. (2) For indeed we have had good tidings preached unto us, even as also they: but the word of hearing did not profit them, because it was not united by faith with them that heard.

This weekend, Tyler kicked off our new series, “The Gospel According to Mark.” In the Gospel of Mark, the word gospel means “Good News,” and the heart of that good news is that Jesus is King. While many people think of the gospel only as forgiveness of sins and the promise of heaven, Mark shows a bigger picture: through Jesus, God's kingdom has arrived. Jesus demonstrated this kingdom by healing the sick, casting out demons, forgiving sins, and teaching with authority–showing His power over every part of life. Humanity was created to represent God but turned toward its own kingdoms instead. Jesus came to defeat evil, restore humanity, and invite people back into God's kingdom. Because His kingdom is now and near, the invitation is clear: “Repent of your sins and believe the Good News.”

Most Christians either treat our sin too flippantly or live in a constant state of shame and regret. Neither of these are pleasing to Jesus! This week in Jonah 3 and 2 Corinthians 7, we learn that fasting is a great way to grieve our sin and experience God's grace and healing.Practical advice and FAQs about fasting Bonus episode about a person journey with fastingGot a question about this teaching or a teaching from this series?

Coming to Jesus means repenting and resting.Every human being is weary. We carry burdens we were never meant to bear: the weight of performance, the exhaustion of trying to prove ourselves, the endless striving for approval. In this sermon, we explore how Jesus offers rest to the weary — but receiving that rest requires repenting of our pride and trusting in him alone.
Wake up! In this message, Lead Pastor Jamie Nunnally shares Jesus's message to the church of Sardis. Sardis had once been one of the most powerful cities in the world. Unlike the other 7 churches in Revelation, there's no mention of persecution, idolatry, or false teaching, by Jesus but they had gotten complacent. Revelation 3:1 The seven stars are symbolic of the seven angels or messengers which refers to the pastor or leader of each church. Revelation 3:1-2 You can fool the crowd, but you can't fool Christ.They're asleep, so their movement is just sleepwalking. Church activity is not church vitality. Revelation 3:2-3 Repentance is a mind change that results in a behavior change. It's turning toward a new direction. It's not just feeling bad, it's doing good. Repentance happens when heart transformation leads to behavior modification. Revelation 3:4 God doesn't just examine our actions, He examines our intentions. Revelation 3:5-6Hearing from Jesus always requires a response. And that's the letter to the church of Sardis and what it meant to them. So, what are the timeless truths for us in this letter, and how can we respond to what Jesus has revealed? 1. Your reputation is not as important as your righteousness.Matthew 23:27Yesterday's victories can become today's excuses. We'll be tempted to embrace programs over presence, structure over Spirit, and appearance over anointing. There are seasons of rest in the life of a Christian, but there are never seasons of complacency. Yesterday's obedience does not cover today's calling. God isn't impressed by your highlight reel; He is looking for present obedience. 2. Wake up before spiritual drift becomes spiritual death.Spiritual sleep happens one ignored conviction at a time.Romans 13:11Jesus doesn't want to write us off, He wants to wake us up. 3. Strengthen what remains.God can do a lot with a spark, but you have to stop pouring water on it and start fanning it into a flame.Strengthening what remains means you stop coasting and start pursuing God again.Spiritual renewal does not come from willpower; It comes from the power of the Holy Spirit.Isaiah 11:2Romans 8:11Revival rarely begins with something spectacular. It usually begins with someone returning to the basics. Some of the stars we see shining above us are actually already dead. Because many of them are light-years away, the light they produced years ago is still traveling through space. In other words, we may be seeing the glow of something that no longer exists and died years ago.And that's exactly what Jesus says was happening in Sardis. It's the same for us. Church, there are too many "bored-again" Christians who are trapped in the rut of religion, regurgitating Christianese phrases, and mindlessly attending, but not engaging.Wake up! Strengthen what remains. Repent, and return to the Lord. Are you spiritually alive, or just known for being spiritually alive?
This powerful exploration of Romans 10 confronts us with a beautiful paradox at the heart of the gospel: salvation is freely offered to everyone who calls on the name of the Lord, yet God sovereignly knows who will respond. We're challenged to hold both truths simultaneously - divine election and human responsibility - like viewing a cone that appears as both a circle and a triangle depending on our perspective. The message emphasizes that we live in prophetically significant times, with ancient biblical prophecies about nations like Persia (modern-day Iran) unfolding before our eyes. This isn't cause for panic but for peace, because we've read the end of the book and know God remains in control. The call is urgent: we are the generation chosen to proclaim Christ in these last days. Every believer is commissioned as a preacher, sent into the mission field of daily life to share the hope within us with gentleness and respect. Our lives should radiate such peace amid chaos that others ask what makes us different. The question isn't whether God's promise is available - it's whether we'll answer the call to be those with beautiful feet who carry the good news to a world desperately needing to hear it.Sermon Notes – Romans 10:13–21 -------------------------------- DETAILED NOTES -------------------------------- I. The Promise Is Persuasive (vv. 13, Joel 2:32) - “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” - No boundaries: not race, class, morality, background, or performance. - Tension: - God elects, calls, saves (Rom 8:29–30). - Yet the invitation is to “everyone.” - Analogy: cone = circle from one angle, triangle from another; we lack the extra “dimension” to fully grasp how divine sovereignty and human responsibility fit together. - In Joel 2:32 both sides appear: - “Everyone who calls…shall be saved.” - “…among the survivors shall be those whom the Lord calls.” II. The Power of Preaching (vv. 14–15; 1 Pet 3:15; 1 Cor 1:18–21) - Paul's “how” chain (reversed): 5. Beautiful are the feet of those who preach good news. 4. They can't preach unless sent. 3. They can't hear without someone preaching. 2. They can't believe what they've never heard. 1. They can't call on whom they haven't believed. - Foundational issue: Do we know the good news well enough to share it? - Preaching isn't just for pastors; every believer is “sent” (Eph 4:12). - Our lives and testimonies are part of the message; God uses “the folly” of weak people with a perfect gospel to save. - In a world of noise, fear (wars, economy, confusion), believers' peace and confidence are a powerful witness. III. The Problem of Unbelief (vv. 16–21) 1. Lack of Faith - Faith comes by hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ (v.17). - Salvation is received only by faith in Christ's finished work (Rom 5:2; Eph 2:8; Heb 11). - We are more “blessed” than those who saw Jesus physically but did not have to (John 20:29). 2. Willful Ignorance / Suppression (Ps 19; Rom 1) - Creation universally proclaims God's glory; no one has a valid excuse. - Evolution and materialism often used to dodge accountability to a Creator. - If there is a Creator and an Author, then His standards are binding. 3. Pride (esp. Israel's example) - Israel had maximum revelation yet often refused God. - Called to be a light to the nations (Isa 49:6; Mic 4:1–2) but hoarded truth instead. - Jonah: a prophet who would “rather die” than see Gentiles repent; a picture of nationalistic pride and spiritual hard-heartedness. 4. Love of Sin (John 3:16–21; Rom 1:32) - People love darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil. - Not only practice sin but approve of others who do. - We resist God like a child shouting “no” to every loving boundary. IV. Our Moment in History - Rapid fulfillment of prophecy; increasing pressure and confusion. - God is purifying a people who: - Hold to His Word, - Refuse to compromise, - Stand with biblical clarity in a dark, chaotic age. -------------------------------- PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS -------------------------------- 1. Clarify the Gospel - Write out the gospel in a few sentences; practice explaining it simply. 2. Live as “Sent Ones” - Ask daily: “Lord, who are you sending me to today?” - Look for people who notice your peace, then share the reason for your hope (1 Pet 3:15). 3. Strengthen Your Faith - Spend regular time in Scripture—especially Romans, John, and Psalms—to deepen confidence in Christ. 4. Confront Pride and Sin - Ask the Spirit to reveal areas where you: - Assume you “deserve” salvation, or - Refuse to surrender favorite sins. Repent quickly. 5. Grow in Bold, Gentle Witness - Pray for boldness + gentleness. - Set a goal: share your testimony or the gospel with at least one person this week. -------------------------------- DISCUSSION QUESTIONS -------------------------------- 1. How do you personally hold together “everyone who calls” and God's sovereign election without dismissing either? 2. On a scale of 1–10, how prepared do you feel to explain the gospel? What would help you grow? 3. Where have you seen God use your story (testimony) to impact someone else? 4. Which obstacle to belief hits closest to home for you: lack of faith, pride, or love of sin? Why? 5. In what ways might we be acting like Jonah—resenting or avoiding certain people or groups God wants to reach? 6. What specific steps can your group take to live more as “sent ones” in your workplaces, schools, and neighborhoods?

In a world swirling with uncertainty and global chaos, Proverbs 21 arrives as a timely anchor for our souls. This passage reminds us of a fundamental truth that can transform our anxiety into peace: God rules over rulers. The opening verse declares that the king's heart is like a stream of water in the Lord's hand, turned wherever He wills. No political upheaval, no international crisis, no earthly authority operates outside God's sovereign control. While we may have vastly different opinions about current events, while confusion and frustration may tempt us to lose focus, we are called to remember that nothing catches God off guard. He has read the end of the book, and He wins. This doesn't mean we live with reckless abandonment or ignore the world around us, but it does mean we refuse to let global distractions pull us away from our mission of making disciples where we live, work, and play. The passage also confronts our tendency to justify our own actions, reminding us that while every way seems right in our own eyes, the Lord weighs the heart. We cannot fool God with partial obedience or self-serving rationalizations. As we face uncertain times ahead, this chapter calls us to trust in God's perfect justice, His unfailing mercy, and His absolute sovereignty over every nation, every leader, and every circumstance we encounter.Sermon Notes – Proverbs 21 & God's Sovereignty -------------------------------- DETAILED NOTES -------------------------------- I. God Rules Over Rulers (Prov. 21:1) - “The king's heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord; he turns it wherever he will.” - In a world full of information, conflict, and confusion, nothing is outside God's control. - Definition of God's sovereignty: God's absolute and kingly authority whereby he not only has the right to rule over all creation, but actively governs and accomplishes all things according to his wise and holy will, including the outworking of salvation history. - God is sovereign over: - Kings, presidents, and rulers - Nations and wars - History and salvation - This sovereignty doesn't excuse reckless living but produces peace and confidence in God's plan. - Revelation and Daniel affirm God's control and final victory (Dan. 2:21; 4:35). - Satan's tactic: use global chaos to distract the church from its mission—making disciples where we live, work, and play. II. God Weighs the Heart (Prov. 21:2) - “Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the heart.” - We are skilled at self-justification; feelings and perceptions can lie. - Outward obedience is not the same as inward submission. - God is not impressed with appearances (1 Sam. 16:7). - He searches the heart and tests the mind (Jer. 17:10). - Many surrounding verses reinforce this: - v.5: Haste leads to poverty. - v.6: Ill-gotten gain is a deadly trap. - v.8: The guilty way is crooked; the pure walk uprightly. - v.9, 19: Wise living affects the peace of our homes. III. Mercy, Justice, and Consequences (Prov. 21:10, 12, 18) - v.10: “The soul of the wicked desires evil…” – sin is not neutral; it loves what harms. - v.12: God observes the wicked and brings them down. Nothing escapes His notice. - v.18: “The wicked is a ransom for the righteous…” – God will ultimately reverse wrongs and vindicate His people. - Choices have consequences; justice is certain (Rom. 2:5–11). - God shows no partiality; He will judge according to works. IV. God's Sovereignty Rules (Prov. 21:30–31) - v.30: “No wisdom, no understanding, no counsel can avail against the Lord.” - v.31: “The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but the victory belongs to the Lord.” - Human planning, power, and strategy are real—but not ultimate. - Job 42:2; Isa. 14:27; Eph. 1:11; Rom. 11:33–36: God's purposes cannot be thwarted; His ways are beyond our comprehension, yet absolutely sure. - This should give deep peace in uncertain, turbulent times. -------------------------------- PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS -------------------------------- 1. **Respond to Global Events with Faith, Not Panic** - Stay informed, but don't be consumed. - Let God's sovereignty shape your news intake, social media habits, and conversations. 2. **Stay on Mission** - Don't let world chaos distract you from making disciples. - Ask: “How can I be faithful where I live, work, and play today?” 3. **Invite God to Weigh Your Heart** - Pray Psalm 139:23–24 style prayers: “Search me, O God…” - Ask where you might be justifying disobedience or compromise. 4. **Take Sin and Consequences Seriously** - Teach and model that choices have real outcomes (for yourself, your family). - Repent quickly; don't “store up wrath” (Rom. 2:5). 5. **Rest in God's Final Victory** - When you feel fearful, meditate on Prov. 21:30–31 and Rom. 11:33–36. - Anchor your hope in Christ's return and ultimate justice. -------------------------------- DISCUSSION QUESTIONS -------------------------------- 1. How does Proverbs 21:1 practically change the way you view elections, wars, and world leaders? 2. Where do you feel most tempted to let global events distract you from everyday discipleship? 3. Can you identify a time when you “felt right” but later realized you were just justifying yourself (Prov. 21:2)? What did God show you? 4. In what areas of life do you tend to forget that choices have consequences before God? 5. Which verse in Proverbs 21 (or in Romans 11:33–36) most encourages you right now, and why?
Matthew 3:1–17, introduces us to John the Baptist. He is the forerunner preparing the way for the coming King. John's call is clear and urgent: "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." John's ministry in the wilderness fulfills prophecy and confronts empty religion, reminding us that true preparation for Christ begins in the heart. Pastor Maiola shows us that repentance is more than feeling sorry; it is a turning away from sin and a turning toward God. A turning from what is sinful and disgusting and a turning towards God - walking in His light and freedom. When repentance is genuine, it produces real fruit - a transformed life shaped by ongoing surrender and sanctification. We are encouraged when we remember our salvation does not hinge on our lineage or our good works, but rather on Jesus' finished work on the cross.

Consagración Pt 2: Vuelve y Arrepiéntete | Consecration Pt.2: Return and Repent | Pastor Jonathan Perez
Join us as we reflect together “On Becoming Prayerful People” so that we might better live into the richness of active engagement with and openness to God as a way of life. Far more than merely asking God for things on behalf of ourselves or others, Christian prayer involves moment-by-moment availability and permeability to God and embraces a great “biodiversity” in the ways of prayer available to the church through the ages and to us in our own time. - Series Description - True depth cuts through shallow places of safety. For some of us this means moving from the shoreline to the waters. For others, it means going even further out into the blue water, past our comfort zones. This Lent, we will explore four movements involved in creating a life of depth: Receive from God in a posture of dependence. Repent and turn back to God. Be renewed by God's Spirit. Join God as God restores all things. God has this invitation for us. How will we respond?
Get a blessing by hearing the latest teaching from one of the services at Faith and Truth Assembly!
At the heart of Romans 10 lies one of the most liberating truths in all of Scripture: salvation is not a distant prize we must climb mountains to reach, but a gift placed within arm's reach. This passage dismantles the exhausting treadmill of performance-based righteousness and reveals that God is not far off, demanding we ascend to heaven or descend into the abyss to find Him. Instead, He came to us. The message explores how we've often overcomplicated what God made beautifully simple—that if we confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in our heart that God raised Him from the dead, we will be saved. This isn't about checking boxes or accumulating enough church attendance or service hours. It's about genuine faith that wells up from within and spills out in confession. The distinction between righteousness based on law versus righteousness based on faith becomes crystal clear: one leads to endless emptiness, the other to complete fulfillment. For those of us striving to earn what has already been freely given, this message offers profound relief. For those who have believed but never publicly confessed, it issues a gentle but urgent invitation. And for all of us, it reminds us that the word is near—in our mouths and in our hearts—not because we've worked hard enough, but because God, in His mercy, brought it to us.**Sermon Notes – Romans 10:5–15 – “The Message of Salvation to All”**---### 1. Righteousness Based on the Law → Emptiness (vv.5; Lev. 18:5; James 2:10)- Paul quotes Moses (Lev. 18:5): “The person who does the commandments shall live by them.”- To be righteous by law you must keep *all* of it, perfectly.- The law was never meant to *save* but to: - Reveal God's standard. - Expose our sin and inability. - Point to our need for a Savior.- When we base our standing with God on works (church attendance, serving, morality), it produces: - Constant insecurity. - Pride if we think we're doing well; despair if we know we're not.- Ephesians 2:4–9: We are saved by grace through faith, *not* works, so no one may boast.---### 2. Righteousness Based on Faith → Fulfillment (vv.6–8; Deut. 30:11–14)- Paul uses Deut. 30 to say: the word is *near* you—in your mouth and heart.- We don't “ascend to heaven” or “descend to the abyss” to reach Christ: - We can't climb up to God. - God came down to us in Christ.- God is not distant: - “The Lord is near to all who call on him” (Ps. 145:18). - “Near to the brokenhearted” (Ps. 34:18).- True fulfillment is not in success, family, money, or “the American dream,” but in trusting Christ and His finished work.---### 3. How We Are Saved (vv.9–13)- v.9–10: - Confess with your mouth that **Jesus is Lord**. - Believe in your heart that **God raised Him from the dead**. - You *will* be saved.- Believe → justified. Confess → saved (public identification with Christ).- This is simple, but not superficial: - Acknowledge your sin (Rom. 3:23). - Believe in Christ's death and resurrection. - Confess Him openly (baptism is a commanded, public expression—but not what saves).- Luke 23 thief on the cross: - No time for works or rituals. - Belief and confession → “Today you will be with me in paradise.”- v.11–13: “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame… Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” - No distinction: Jew/Greek. Same Lord. Same way of salvation.---### 4. Sent to Share (vv.13–15)- v.14–15: How will they call, believe, or hear without someone preaching? - “Preaching” here is not just pastors—every believer bears witness.- God raises up future pastors, missionaries, disciple-makers from each generation.- The church must: - Invest in the next generation. - Refuse to idolize methods or traditions; cling to the unchanging gospel.---## Practical Applications1. **Stop Trying to Earn It** - Identify where you still try to “pay God back” with works. - Repent of self-righteousness; rest in grace.2. **Examine: Have You Both Believed and Confessed?** - Have you trusted Christ personally? - Have you ever clearly told others or been baptized as a believer? If not, take that step.3. **Lean Into God's Nearness** - When He feels distant, preach Deut. 30:14; Ps. 34:18 to yourself. - Bring your brokenness honestly before Him.4. **Own Your Mission Field** - Where you live, work, and play is your assignment. - This week: intentionally share your story or an aspect of the gospel with one person.5. **Invest in the Next Generation** - Pray for and encourage students and kids. - Consider serving in ministries that disciple them.---## Discussion Questions1. Where have you personally tried to base your righteousness on “law” or performance? What fruit did that produce?2. How does knowing God is *near* (Deut. 30; Psalms) change how you handle seasons when He *feels* far?3. Have you both believed in your heart and confessed with your mouth that Jesus is Lord? What did/does that confession look like?4. Why is it vital that the church adapt methods (but not the message) to reach the next generation?5. Who in your life “cannot hear” unless you speak? What's one concrete step you can take this week to share Christ with them?
In this episode, Jesus speaks woes over some Jewish towns who are refusing to repent, citing that the Gentiles would have repented long ago if they had seen His works!

Welcome to episode 238 of Grasp the Bible. In this episode, Pastor Drew continues our study entitled Kingdom Logic. Today we will cover:• “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” — Matthew 5:4• “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” — Matthew 5:5• What it means to live radically different between the Kingdom and the world.Key Takeaways:· The Good Life is not normal — it is faithful.· The Beatitudes are a self-portrait of Jesus and a portrait of us still being completed.· Mourning is spiritual brokenness over our own sin — not worldly disappointment.· The opposite of mourning sin is celebrating, excusing, or admiring sin.· Those who mourn are comforted through forgiveness, freedom from sin's power, and eternal hope.· Meekness is humble submission under God's mission — strength under control.· True meekness flows from poverty of spirit and sorrow over sin.· The meek reflect Jesus — living not for their own will, but the Father's.· Kingdom people live radically differently from the world.Quotable:· The Good Life is not normal — it is faithful.· We must mourn deeply enough to do something about our sin.· Meekness is strength submitted to God's mission.· We are comforted so that we might comfort others.Application:· Examine whether you grieve over your sin or excuse it.· Repent deeply and walk in the comfort of Christ.· Humble yourself under the mighty hand of God (1 Peter 5:6–7).· Respond to others with compassion, not condemnation.· Live distinctly different from the world — Kingdom over culture.Connect with us:Website: https://springbaptist.orgFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/SBCKleinCampus (Klein Campus)https://www.facebook.com/SpringBaptist (Spring Campus)Need us to pray for you?

Read OnlineEven now, says the LORD, return to me with your whole heart, with fasting, and weeping, and mourning; Rend your hearts, not your garments, and return to the LORD, your God. For gracious and merciful is he, slow to anger, rich in kindness, and relenting in punishment. Joel 2:12–13Today, as we go forward in procession at Mass to be marked with ashes on our foreheads, we are reminded: “Remember that you are dust, and to dust you will return.” Alternatively, the minister may say, “Repent, and believe in the Gospel.” What humbling words to hear.Do you desire to be humble? From a worldly perspective, humility is rarely esteemed as a virtue. However, those who are truly humble have a radiance that emanates from their souls. Even those who are deeply worldly often recognize the beauty of authentic humility. Among all the virtues we are called to cultivate, faith, hope, and charity are the greatest. No other virtue helps us grow in these three as effectively as humility.Humility is nothing other than seeing ourselves from God's perspective and embracing that truth. It allows us to shed false personas, along with any elevated or distorted images we might have of ourselves. In humility, we come to know who we truly are and live as God created us to be. Humility is the virtue of truth and integrity—seeing ourselves as we are in the mind of God and becoming that person.Imagine being able to look at your life and fully understand it in the way God does. This is the essence of humility. Moreover, humility enables us to embrace God's will, as it opens our eyes to the wisdom of His divine plan. It frees us from the deceptive desires that promise only fleeting happiness, dispels the fears that arise from believing lies, and reorders our desires so that we want only what God wills for us.The Scripture passage from the Prophet Joel is a powerful call to make this Lent a time of humility, repentance, penance, and transformation. As we are reminded of our mortality—“you are dust, and to dust you will return”—we are invited to adopt an eternal perspective, rather than a limited earthly one. Too often, we are tempted to live for the moment, to satisfy every craving, and to enjoy all that this world offers. Humility helps us turn our gaze away from passing earthly pleasures and focus on Heaven and eternal life.Lent is a time to return to the Lord with our whole hearts, “with fasting, and weeping, and mourning.” Fasting and penance are necessary to ensure that earthly desires do not dominate our ambitions. We must weep and mourn as we confront our sins, addictions, and worldly attachments that promise only fleeting satisfaction. Yet, God is a God of infinite mercy, “slow to anger, rich in kindness, and relenting in punishment.” His justice rightly punishes those who reject His mercy, but when we shed pride, sin, and worldliness, His mercy fulfills all justice and He withholds His punishment.As we begin our Lenten journey, reflect today on the words of the Prophet Joel as if they were spoken directly to you: “Even now, says the LORD, return to me with your whole heart...” Do not let this Lent pass you by. Enter it with a wholehearted commitment. “Repent, and believe in the Gospel.” Face your soul with humility and confidence in God's mercy. Identify your sins, turn from them, do penance, pray, and seek holiness. If you do, God, in His great mercy, will transform your life in ways beyond your imagination. My merciful Lord, I repent of my sins with my whole heart and beg for the gift of humility so that I may see myself as You see me and change in the ways that You desire. I commit myself to You entirely and ask for Your abundant mercy this Lent. May I keep my eyes on Heaven and live for You alone. Jesus, I trust in You.ImageSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.
