How Christians see themselves until they join the Pharisees Union. (1 Timothy 1:15) "This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief."

(Romans 12:2) "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."

Mark may not be doctrinally correct in all areas, but he understands grace far better then the Pharisees Union. Enjoy his sense of humor and bringing some light heartedness to this often troubing world.

Tremendous song about the amazing grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. (2 Corinthians 4:15) "For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God."

Why do you ask forgiveness for that which God has already forgiven? (Colossians 2:13) "And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;"

(2 Corinthians 4:16-17) "For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;"

(Proverbs 17:22) “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.”
Pastor Edward R. Cross
The Christian life has plenty of ups and downs — disappointments, heartbreaks, and failures. Yet one thing never changes: the abiding presence of the Lord Jesus Christ.
In Romans 8, Paul gives us hope even after the struggles of Romans 7:
“For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son…” (Romans 8:29 KJV)
We all fail, but the Lord never abandons us. David proved that — a man after God’s own heart despite his many failures. Because of God’s sure mercies in Christ, we can keep on keeping on.
Even when we believe not, “yet he abideth faithful” (2 Timothy 2:13). God works all things together for good (Romans 8:28). He is never surprised.
The journey continues — grounded in the faithfulness of Christ.

The Christian life is full of ups and downs. You face disappointments and heartbreaks, but the one thing you can always count on is the abiding presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. You learn that this cannot be said of any other.
In Romans 8, the Apostle Paul instructs believers as to why they can have hope even though they experience the failures of Romans 7. (Rom 8:29 KJV) “For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, …”
All believers fail the Lord in some way, even though they may not be willing to admit it. Others may abandon them, but the Lord never does. Despite all of David’s failures, the Lord never abandoned him. He was a man after God’s own heart, can you imagine that? The Lord promised him sure mercies, just like He promised the seed of Christ.
It’s because of His sure mercies, the Christian should keep on keeping on, come what may. Always remember the faithfulness of Christ even in the midst of our unbelief. Even when we believe not he abides faithful.
If God intends all things to work together for good, then it is up to us to understand all things in light of what God is doing in our lives. God never wakes up surprised. So the journey continues…
