So Great a Salvation – Adopted



A parenthesis in our “So Great a Salvation” mini-series, we look at adoption into the family of God.  In Matthew 17, Jesus made an interesting comment to Peter that prompted a squirrel chase that ended in Romans 8. Being sons and daughters of God and joint-heirs with Christ is kinda a big deal. But all of creation yearning for our complete adoption, the redemption of our body should give perspective that this salvation is bigger than we thought.

God Has Spoken



God has spoken and we have His words. In various ways and in various times, He has revealed Himself through human writers. But in these last days, God has spoken most clearly through His Son – Jesus Christ. Jesus the Son of God surpasses all other revelations because He is superior to all other humans God has or could have used.
