When Losing Is Gaining
“But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea, doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord—for Whom I have suffered the loss of all things and do count them but dung that I may win Christ and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is of the Law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.” Philippians 3:7-9 Never has there been a better, more inequitable, exchange than this one. The earthly for the Eternal. That’s the essence of Paul’s testimony in today’s Manna where he talks about “suffering the loss of all things and count

Amazing, Abiding, Abounding Grace
“. . .But where sin abounded, Grace did much more abound.” Romans 5:20b No wonder it’s called “Amazing.” Grace. We speak much about it; the question is “Do we rest in it?” Although we define it as “The unmerited favor of God,” we know a more commonly-understood definition is “The Love of God that cannot be earned.” Taken from the Greek word “charis,” which means “gracious, benefit, joy, pleasure, gratitude, etc.,” Grace is that condescending Love of God that reaches down to the sinful likes of you and me.

There are several views concerning Christ's second coming, and the most popular are these two; Pre-mellenialism and Post Mellenialism. It will be a great deal of theology in discussing these two which we will do in later times.

Echoes of the Longing Heart
“I opened to my beloved, but my beloved had withdrawn himself and was gone. My soul failed when he spoke; I sought him, but I could not find him. I called him, but he gave me no answer.” Song of Solomon 5:6 Anyone who’s ever loved knows the heartache of separation—especially in the spiritual realm; but we need never fear that our Lover will ever abandon or forget us. Do the words of today’s Manna strike a chord in your heart, dear Pilgrim? Has there ever been a time when the words of the anonymous bride of Solomon became your own? If so, you know full well their meaning and the agony of soul from which they rise. Most of us spend little time in the Song of Solomon. And

Could It Be Today?
“Watch, therefore—for you know not what hour your Lord does come.” Matthew 24:42 Could today be the Day when the Lord does come To welcome His children home— Those who’ve trusted Him as Savior and Lord And have chosen no longer to roam? Could today be the Day when the Trumpet sounds And the “dead in Christ shall rise,” To be joined by those who are still living by faith And of His Return no longer surmise? No related posts.
