The fear of death. It has gripped us all, caused us to think twice about different choices and situations, but is it really something that Christians should fear?

One of the things that I have been learning lately is the power of spoken words. Did you know that talking about what Satan is doing is not helping you deal with it? It is actually giving him more power in your life. You are admitting that you believe he should have that kind of power over you.

I’ve always been scared of storms. I don’t have an incident to reference to know why, I just always have. That rolling of thunder followed by an intense flash of lightening just startles me.

Do you have a calling that you know that you know that everyone but you knows? Confused yet? Let me explain.

Giving all your guilt to God is very important. Sure, it isn’t right to be ok with doing something wrong. But, once you’ve asked for forgiveness and repented, then guilt needs to go bye-bye.

What stage of faith are you in? Are you just a ‘baby Christian?’ Or are you past that stage but still hiding behind the title to make it easier? Do you know what you believe but are too afraid to tell others about it? Or do you simply convince yourself, ‘I’m just here to plant the seed of kindness, someone else will take care of sharing Jesus with them?’

A Note From Quill:
It has been wonderful sharing the keyboard in a sense with Ball. As you all have experienced over the years, time can be short. Since his days are filling with other necessary activities, this will be Ball’s last post. Thank you, Ball, for the studies you have brought us. May God bless you as you venture toward the future He has laid before you.
Is It Wisdom?

As we’ve effectively dealt with three out of three times so far in our study on Romans 8, we are sinners and Jesus Christ is our Savior. While studying Romans 8:1, we saw that Christ’s death paid the debt we earned with our sin, not just in the past and present, but also in the future. While studying Romans 8:2, we saw that because Jesus paid the price for all our sin, we no longer need to try secure our own salvation (which is impossible for us to do anyways). While studying Romans 8:3-4, we saw how this freedom was bought through Christ’s substitutionary death.

Have you ever just looked back at something sinful that you said or did and wonder why you did it? It was just so unlike you, at least you thought so. Where did it come from? Why did it happen?
