The LORD passed before him and proclaimed, “The LORD, the LORD, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness, keeping steadfast love for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children and the children’s …

God has existed forever, even before time (as we know it and comprehend it) began. God existed in a perfect community in and of Himself: God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. As a technical theological term, this is called the aseity of God and I highly recommend you study …

To conclude our study in the Five Solas of the Reformation, in part 6 of 6 we’ll discuss Soli Deo Gloria, the Glory of God Alone. This is the pinnacle of what the Five Solas are pointing to, and truly, what the universe’s purpose is pointing to. To some, this …

In part 5 of 6 in our reflections on the Reformation, we are looking at the Sola: “Christ Alone.” The implications of this cannot be overstated. We are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, through Christ alone. It’s as offensive today (if not more) as it has been for …

As stated in the last article, Sola Gratia (Grace Alone) and Sola Fide (Faith Alone) go hand in hand, yet they are not the same. In part 4 of 6 of our study on the 5 Solas, we’re looking at Faith Alone. What are the conditions that bring someone in …

Christians are called to be satisfied in God. What does that mean? What does it look like? This would be the follow-up message to the prior week’s message titled: “When God doesn’t answer prayers…” Recorded on 10/16/2022 at Blanchester First Church of God.
