Put off Sin -- Phil Roberts - 1-8-12
Ephesians 1:3-14 (MSG)
How blessed is God! And what a blessing he is! He's the Father of our Master, Jesus Christ, and takes us to the high places of blessing in him. Long before he laid down earth's foundations, he had us in mind, had settled on us as the focus of his love, to be made whole and holy by his love. Long, long ago he decided to adopt us into his family through Jesus Christ. (What pleasure he took in planning this!) He wanted us to enter into the celebration of his lavish gift-giving by the hand of his beloved Son.Created 5 months ago

What's Wrong with My Faith? - Mike Holt - New Year's Day 1-1-12
Romans 7:7-12 (MSG)
But I can hear you say, "If the law code was as bad as all that, it's no better than sin itself." That's certainly not true. The law code had a perfectly legitimate function. Without its clear guidelines for right and wrong, moral behavior would be mostly guesswork. Apart from the succinct, surgical command, "You shall not covet," I could have dressed covetousness up to look like a virtue and ruined my life with it.Romans 7:21-25 (MSG)
It happens so regularly that it's predictable. The moment I decide to do good, sin is there to trip me up. I truly delight in God's commands, but it's pretty obvious that not all of me joins in that delight. Parts of me covertly rebel, and just when I least expect it, they take charge.Created 5 months ago

Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we're in. Study how he did it.

And now he's there, in the place of honor, right alongside God.Created 7 months ago
