Devotional : Loving the Lost
As Christians, we understand in our minds that we need to share the Gospel, but do we feel it in our hearts? This devotional looks at the role our emotions play in allowing us to truly understand God's love for the lost and our role in leading them to Christ.

Savior in the Bible: 2 Timothy 1:8-10
In just a few sentences, Paul summarizes the significance of Jesus Christ: he died and rose again to bring God's grace to us.

"All things are possible" in the Bible: Matthew 19:24-26
Is it possible to find freedom from our sins and be restored to a relationship with God? Not on our own, according to Jesus--but what man finds impossible, God is able to do. We're helpless against the power of sin, but God can break through our sin to save us.

"Saved" in the Bible: Acts 4:11-12
How are we "saved" from our sin? There's only one way: through Jesus Christ. As this passage teaches, no other person, name, or belief system can offer us a true relationship with God.

Saved in the Bible: Romans 10:9-10
How can we be saved from our sins? The answer is stated simply in this passage: we must believe in Jesus Christ. There is no other way to find salvation apart from Jesus.

Salvation in the Bible: Job 33:14-30
Do we deserve salvation? Do we deserve to not be punished for our sins? The answer is most assuredly no, but why are we freely offered the grace and love that drives salvation? In Job 33, we are presented a picture of salvation. A man is about to be thrown into a pit and his ransom is paid. He sees God and praises him and then goes to tell others how close he didn't get what he deserved.

Devotional : One Answer
If we were to die today and meet Jesus at the gates of Heaven, what could we say to convince Him that we should be allowed into paradise? Could we tell Jesus that we prayed to be saved when we were young? Could we tell Jesus that we tried our best to live a good life? What kind of answer would suffice? This devotional looks at what scripture proclaims to be the one and only answer we should be prepared to offer.
