But may it never be that I would boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. (Gal. 6:14 NASB) Because of the cross of Jesus Christ, we are dead to the world. We are no longer concerned...
"Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand" (Matt. 4:17). When Jesus came preaching the good news of the gospel, He said to the people, "Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." What did Jesus mean by this? Change your mind and come My way. Turn around and...

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Heb. 11:1) Now what did I say to that woman to get her to act on the Word? You see, initially she was crying out, "Oh, please, Jesus! Please heal me! Oh, Jesus, let me walk! I'm so...

"The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, Until I make thy foes thy footstool" (Acts 2:34-35). Even though Satan lost all his authority on this earth the day Jesus rose from the dead, for the past 2,000 years he's been running around as a spiritual...
