From the Desk of Pastor Tom
Salvation by Grace Alone is something that can bring us immense joy and peace. It takes away the burden of trying to adhere to non-biblical rules that we cannot bear, and instead allows us to focus on our relationship with God. Jesus came fulfilling the Old Testament law in himself. This means that anyone can be saved, regardless of who they are or what they have done. However, this doesn’t mean that there are no standards or commands of God. We are still called to live holy lives, honoring Him and rejoicing in His creation design appropriately. But this is not our deepest desire. Our deepest desire should be to have hearts that love and desire God above all else. Therefore, when we talk about God, when we talk about salvation, we should talk about Jesus alone, without adding anything else to the equation. Living a life that honors God and rejoices in His love and grace is the highest goal we can have in our homes, and it will bring us immense joy as we walk with God.
