Why We're Here

It's estimated there are almost three billion people in our generation who are still un-reached with the Gospel Message of Salvation through Jesus Christ. And it is estimated that there will be over one billion people online in the world by the end of the year. In North America alone, nearly 2/3 of the adults who use the Internet will use it for faith related matters. Just as the Roman roads opened up the known world during the New Testament times to the spread of the Gospel, today the Internet is providing a way to take the Gospel around the world in a very effective way. Our vision is to use this new Roman road to help Christians around the world grow in their faith and increase their knowledge and understanding of the Bible.

God's Gift of Grace to Us

Everyone has sinned, everyone at one point or another has done something or thought something they're not proud of; something that they would not like anyone else to know about, let alone God. That is what Salvation is all about. God wants to have a relationship with you and He gave you a way to receive forgiveness from all sins past, present and future!

We know we are not perfect! Though try as we might no one can achieve perfection all or even most of the time, and God knows that! And that's why He gave us the gift of salvation through the forgiveness of sins. As the Bible says "For by grace you are saved through faith; and not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, Not by works lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:8,9)

Daily Bible Promises
for Tuesday, June 18, 2013

God Promises He Will Watch Over Us - (Psalm 12:7)

I will keep watch over you and guard you forever.


Reading Notes

The last half of Psalm twelve reassures us that the Lord is God over all. He will arise and defend those who place the trust in Him. God is sovereign and He is in control and though the wicked may prosper for a time, God will arise and take judgment on those who are without Christ Jesus. We have to remember where we will spend eternity. And as we do so, it helps to remind us that our time here is short compared to the eternity we will spend in heaven, a time when we will see Jesus face to face and live with Him. So trust in the Lord and remember even now we are part of His everlasting kingdom.

Salvation

Bible Verse Joel 2:32, John 6:47

And it shall come to pass That whoever calls on the name of the Lord Shall be saved. ...Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me [Jesus] has everlasting life.

Commentary:

From the Old Testament to the New Testament, God's Word promises us that Salvation is found in Christ alone. Whoever calls on the name of Jesus and believes on Him shall be saved. As Christians we need to remember our duty is to present the Gospel Message.

Salvation is a work done by the Holy Spirit bringing people to faith in Christ, our role is to spread the message and make ourselves available to the prompting of the Holy Spirit. It's through the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives, brought about by our faith in Jesus that our lives change and take on a meaning that brings light to a dark world.

Jesus Gave His Life for Our Freedom

John 15:12-13

This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.

We Are Sustained By Abiding in Christ

John 15:5-7

I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.

Our Joy is Abiding in Christ

John 15:10-12

If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

We Are Friends and Heirs in Christ

John 15:15-16

No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

We Are Not of the World, We Are of Christ

John 15:18-21

If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, "A servant is not greater than his master." If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word, they will keep yours also. But all these things they will do to you for My name's sake, because they do not know Him who sent Me.

The Love of Christ Frees Us from Sin

John 15:22-25

If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin. He who hates Me hates My Father also. If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would have no sin; but now they have seen and also hated both Me and My Father. But this happened that the word might be fulfilled which is written in their law, "They hated Me without a cause."

We Are Strengthened in Christ through the Holy Spirit

John 15:26-27

But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me. And you also will bear witness, because you have been with Me from the beginning.

Jesus Our Good Shepherd

Luke 4:18

I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own. As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again.

Salvation is Found in Christ Alone

John 10:1-2

Most assuredly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

We Belong to Jesus and He Knows His Own

John 10:27-30

My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand. I and My Father are one.

Year of Proverbs
for Tuesday, June 18, 2013

A Wise Son Heeds the Father's Instruction - (Proverbs 13:1)

A wise son heeds his father's instruction, But a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.


Reading Notes

In our day and age, a wise son is a gift from God. How hard was it for us to listen to our father? Did we listen to the wisdom and guidance of our loving father growing up? In order for us to become a wise and loving father, we must first be a wise son. Our heavenly father has called us to Himself. Do you hear His call? Did you heed His call? Do you hear His instruction? Did you head His instruction? Do you read and meditate on His word?

Let us first become a wise son to our loving Father in heaven, then imitate that to our earthly fathers in humility, honor and love. Then and only then can we pass it down to our sons. God has given all Christian men a grave responsibility and that responsibility is live Christ to our children and our spouses. Our love, our behavior and our actions are the transportation upon which our spoken words ride into the hearts of our children. Our sacrifices for them are the yard stick by which they measure our resolve and commitment to our family.

Year of Psalms
for Tuesday, June 18, 2013

Pain and Anguish In Our Souls When We Are Separated from God - (Psalm 22:1-2)

My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me? Why are You so far from helping Me, And from the words of My groaning? O My God, I cry in the daytime, but You do not hear; And in the night season, and am not silent.


Reading Notes

David felt a deep anguish and pain in his heart and in his soul when he sensed a separation from God. Jesus too spoke these words on the Cross of Calvary as He bore our sin and was for a time separated from the Father. As followers of Christ and children of God, we know the joy of communion and relationship with God because of what Jesus has done for us. We know the love and joy of being back in fellowship with a God who loves us so.

Therefore we can all the more feel the pain of separation when we stray from the Lord and anguish in our hearts to return to the fellowship we had known before with God. This should not only cause us to praise Jesus all the more for what He did for us; but to rent our hearts for the lost who do know Christ, who know only the pain, fear and anguish of separation; but have never known the joy and love from the restored relationship with God that only Jesus can give us.

Bible Principle for Today
for Tuesday, June 18, 2013

Jesus is the creator and sustainer of life, everything was created through Him and by Him, everything we have is a gift from God; therefore we can never give more than God, we must never forget God is in debt to no one.

Prayer for Today
for Tuesday, June 18, 2013

Dear God this is a new day and I may face temptation, please keep me that I may flee from evil.
