People say that Jesus is the Lamb of God. But why a lamb specifically? It goes back to Passover. The parallels between Passover and the Crucifixion are astounding. God knew what He was doing when He instituted Passover.
Can a person lose their salvation? This question is a contentious one and not easy to answer. Ultimately only God knows the answer and the truth about where each person will spend eternity. But I do wish to present both sides of the debate and offer my own thoughts.
Mary and Joseph. The parents of Jesus. Of all the characters of Christmas, I think these are two of first ones we think of and probably talk about the most – apart from Jesus. But don’t tune me out thinking you’ve heard it all before. You might be surprised what you learn.
Can God forget? Yes, but not in the same way we forget something and then smack our foreheads and say “Whoops! I forgot!” God’s not one to literally forget something. But the Bible says He does, so what gives? I’m so glad you asked.
What exactly is sin? And what’s the big deal? We talk about how terrible sin is in God’s eyes and Jesus died for our sin, but we don’t always explain what it is or why it’s so bad. We just know it’s bad. As always, I’m turning to the Bible for the answers.
