CHRIST IS SALVATION! Henry Mahan “All spiritual blessings that sovereign, gracious God has for sinners IN our Lord Jesus Christ, BY the merits and blood of our Lord, and FOR the glory of our Redeemer.

Blessed Assurance John 6:37 There is something very comforting to the believer when he sees the “wills”, “shalls”, and “musts” within the scripture. Those words speak of certainty.

The Gospel of Joy and Peace in believing ‘Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.’ (Rom. 15:13). These words of inspiration encourage my weary heart. The gospel of God in Christ is so designed to […]
