The Redemptive Promise


I want to take this time to thank everyone who has been instrumental in being an incredible help to so many during this critical period in the history of the world.  We are appreciative for all you are doing and uplift you in prayer daily.

The Redemption Promise

Although people of faith cannot gather in buildings or structures of any nature as usual to observe services for Holy Week, it does not take away from the special time Christians celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 

Events beginning with Palm Sunday through Good Friday all lead to Resurrection Day, where Jesus rose from the grave.  This documented truth is the basis for our faith, and why we believe what we do.  Our hope comes from the Lord and His promises for redemption of sin through Christ alone.

The sacrifice Jesus made through dying on the cross in taking our sins upon Himself, was and always will be the greatest form of grace – unmerited favor anyone could give for those He loved. 

"For God loved the world (you and me) so much He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Jesus will not perish in Hell, but will have eternal life in Heaven with God." 
(John 3:16 emphasis mine)

Jesus loves you.  He died to redeem (save and forgive) you from all sin.  No other God has done that or ever will, because He is the One and only true God. He rose from the dead conquering death and sin that the devil lords over mankind.  

As the world faces a silent enemy in the spread of the “C-virus”, the real enemy behind it is satan.  He is a thief and his goal is to kill, steal and destroy as many souls as possible. (John 10:10)

It is vital that we do not give in to his lies and fear, or believe that there is no hope, because that is simply not so!  Our focus needs to be on what God is doing, because He is not silent!  The message of a Risen Savior should be louder than anything the devil is trying to do.

Friend, no one conquers the grave without Jesus. This is why we rejoice and can live in continual hope.  He is risen!  Only those who believe in God's Son will share in the favored Heavenly Kingdom for eternity.  Don’t be left out; believe in Christ now before it's too late.

Read about the greatest gift of love in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ in Matthew chapters 26-28.  For more answers about the Christian faith and salvation through Jesus Christ visit the Tell Me section of this site.

In obedience to God’s command and following governmental guidelines, the office is closed.  We are observing this special day during Holy Week in remembrance of what Jesus did for us on the cross at home.  

This is a unique opportunity for us to build our relationship with Jesus and with those we love.  Don’t waste it with things that have no eternal value.

Be thankful that God is in control.  His redemptive promise through Christ Jesus is working things out for your good.  

Use this time to study from the topical word search list on the right or catch-up on the trending or popular article(s).  You can read about Christ on the cross in my teaching the "Beauty of Chen Redemption".
