Simplifying the Truth

God chose His church to accomplish His will here on the earth. There are some who say that when God chose the church, He rejected the Jews and sidelined them. Nothing could be farther from the truth. God’s not done with His first chosen people. Not by a long shot.
The New Testament calls us children of God. But we aren’t just children born into His family, we are adopted into His family. Keep reading to find out what it means to be adopted into God’s family.
Jesus calls Himself The Good Shepherd. And He calls all who follow Him His sheep. Animal metaphor aside, what does this mean for us, as His followers?
The phrase “Sinners saved by grace” is used to say Christians are no different from others except that we’ve accepted Christ’s sacrifice. However, if we aren’t careful, we can deny a greater reality of who we are in Christ.
The sovereignty of God is unquestionable in the church. However, you might be surprised at the amount of confusion over how His sovereignty actually operates in the world we live in.
