This week we’ve discovered that we were created, chosen, and called to and for God’s purpose. The primary purpose of our life then is to worship and praise God.

A Life of Worship
People sometimes use the word worship flippantly. They’ll worship pop stars or sports icons. Some people hero worship. Some people worship politicians and institutions. Others worship ideas and philosophies. But that worship is empty and hollow because it yields no returns.

Created to Praise
We were created, called, chosen by God for a purpose greater than anything else this earth has to offer. God did not haphazardly make you. He did not make humanity on a whim.

I am the I Am.
Today is the last day of 2023 and the last day of our study on the names of Jesus. It just so happens to also be The Lord’s Day which is a perfect ending to our study. While Jesus was on earth some believe that He was not God. Today, many claim that Jesus neverContinue reading “I am the I Am.”
Resurrection & Life
Jesus declared Himself to be the Resurrection moment before He raised Lazarus from the dead. And while His audience members most likely initially forgot the statement due to the shock factor of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead after dying nearly a week before – the statement surely came back to their minds after theContinue reading “Resurrection & Life”
The Way, The Truth, & The Life
We’ve got to the last three days of the Names of Jesus. I’ve saved three of the most powerful alternative names of Jesus given to Him by Himself.
