Good Morning! I am sending this to those of you who share in this journey of realizing daily the sufficiency of God’s Grace. I was just exercising to the song, “The Symphony of Praise” sung by Steve Green. Click on this link to hear…it’s really great.

In my mind’s eye, I was imagining the Creation and then the ultimate bowing down of that Creation at the “all in all.” I shut my eyes and let the music join with my spirit as I envisioned that moment. I felt an overwhelming gratitude for even being able to imagine this and grateful that the Lord has allowed me to “see” Him and know His love.
Then the Lord brought to my memory the following:
Eph 1:17-18
Eph 3:8-21
That is so good, Joannie. Thank you for sharing. I can only imagine the day when all creation, every knee, will bow before the Lord Jesus Christ to the glory of God the Father.

The OBF website, www.thegodofgrace.org, has Bill Petri's first interview segment up and running. The second segment will be up by 7pm this evening, Thursday 3-29. I did the video taping at our OBF church building and enjoyed a blessing because I was part of the process.
ReplyDeleteThe questions asked were good questions and the explanations re the Lake of Fire, Great White Throne of Judgment, New Heaven and New Earth and the first and second death are enlightening.
The explanation given re the difference between sin and works brought my mind to a rock-solid understanding of the two. "Sin' has been dealt with. The judgment for sin is finished. Christ died on the cross and bore the penalty for it. Works, however, will be judged--for ALL mankind. Mine, as a believer in Jesus Christ and member of the body of Christ, will be at the judgment seat of Christ. Unbeliever's works will be judged at the Great White Throne of Judgment. Bill made the distinction that murder, for example, is a WORK to be judged, not a sin because sin was judged on the cross of Christ.
Praise the Lord for allowing me to know Him better with each new ray of light from the scriptures. SKH
We are now offering our OBF Conference Calls on our website. Check it out! www.thegodofgrace.org.
ReplyDeleteThe April 23 topic question, "Do all in Adam die?" Great discussion.
I was walking down to the store at the end of my road when i saw a sign that read, And being now justified by the blood we are saved. It was a blessing to see that someone understands the truth and is not afraid to share it.
ReplyDeleteAmen, Ken. Also wonderful that you were walking...great pastime! And to be encouraged by the truth of the scripture is a double blessing. We have a conference call each month that is advertised on the website under events. Invite your friends and join us for the next one...open to any and all questions concerning the scriptures--doctrinal or practical.
