Maundy Thursday; Broken for Our Sin

Today, on Maundy Thursday, we think on the Last Supper, the prophetic bread broken that night to symbolize how the Bread of Life would soon be broken.

And Peter, who promised neverContinue reading “Maundy Thursday; Broken for Our Sin”

Mark 11:25, RomansContinue reading “Freedom through Forgiveness”

Forgive

This morning, I felt the Lord leading us back to forgiveness. Matthew 6:14-15; Psalm 32:1-5; Romans 12:17-21 When Jesus died on the cross, He paid for all our sin — from the tiniest infraction to that monstrous mistake we still regret. So, if our mile-high debt has been forgiven entirely, why are we so botheredContinue reading “Forgive”
