God is orchestrating the circumstances of your life to bring you to a face to face encounter with Christ and his cross. His call is to follow him on his way, surrendered to the Father’s will for the sake of the world. He will provide everything needed for you to see it through.
As Jesus takes up his cross to head to his execution, he does so as the new Isaac, giving himself over to the Father’s will. He is truly God, but also truly, fully, perfectly, and substitutionally man.
Jesus told the truth, not just about himself, but about everyone else, so much that they wanted to kill him for it. Your eternal destiny hinges entirely upon your attitude toward him. He is the light of the world. In his presence, you will either fall down to worship him or do everything you can to extinguish his light.
Speaker: Sean Scribner Series: The Way of Sorrows Scripture: John 18:28-40
The central exhortation of the book of Hosea is the call in 14:1 for Israel to “return” to the Lord. What follows is the substance, the content, of returning. It is more than mere sentiment. It is a decisive action of the will to confess sin, seek forgiveness, render the praise God is due, all while putting away all other lines of salvation. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.
Speaker: Sean Scribner Series: Unrequited Love. Scripture: Hosea 14:1-7
Hosea reminds us that the God who is a “betrayed spouse” is ultimately a loving Father who refuses to give up on or abandon the son he loves. He will do whatever it takes to bring him home again.
