As Christ followers, we have been adopted as children of God. The Holy Spirit has been deposited inside of us and he helps us in our weakness.

As Christ followers, the Apostle Paul makes it clear that we have died to sin. So why do we still struggle? What is wrong with us that we would do the very things we hate? The battle is real… and it’s daily.

Should we keep on sinning because we are covered by God’s grace? Absolutely not! Why? Because we aren’t who we used to be. God freed us from the power of sin-so we can live a life of victory.

EASTER SUNDAY – When you truly experience grace, your life will be different. You don’t have to do the things you used to do because you’re not the person you used to be. Because of Jesus’ death and resurrection, we can have a new life – an abundant life – in Him.

There are two teams – Team Adam and Team Jesus. We are all born into sin and because of that, we are on the wrong team. The good news: we all have the invitation to switch teams, not because we are awesome but because Jesus is awesome.

To be reconciled means two things that were separated have been brought back together. Jesus’ life and work made it possible for separated sinners to be reconciled to the perfect Father.

Because God is holy, all sin must be paid for. Because God is merciful, He delayed the payment for sin. Because God is gracious, He made the full payment for sin.

Our faithlessness doesn’t nullify the faithfulness of God. He is who He says He is, not because of us, but because of His character and nature.

The evidence of our right standing with God is not contained in our outward works or signs. It is only found in the works of God in our heart which shows itself in fruit.

It is God’s kindness that leads us to repentance. We must never forget where we came from — sin and death. Only because of God’s grace can we be made alive.
