I will share about Christian books I have read or listened to.
I will be sharing about my life before and after Christ. I will include stories about my pet and other pets I have encountered.
The Man Christ Jesus
When we study Scripture, we’re not only learning about how we should act as Christians, but also how we should think. We are always learning more about God as well as the world around us.
Learning how to think well about God and others is important as we seek to live faithfully according to God’s Word. Scripture guides and orients our thinking towards God’s thoughts about us and the world.
It is common in culture to believe that all religions and paths of life lead to the same place. But, we must go to Scripture to assess all truth that we hear.
In 1 Timothy 2:5, Paul tells Timothy that there is only one mediator between God and mankind. That means that there is only one access point to beginning a relationship with God and being connected to Him. The one mediator is Jesus.
Because Jesus is the only one who is both God and man, He is the only one who can make a way for us back to God. Thus, not all religions lead to God, but only one with Jesus as the center of it all.

Just as the opposing army was closing in and all seemed lost, God made a way—right through the Red Sea. (See Exodus 14.) This is probably what the book of Isaiah is referencing to remind the Israelites of God’s power.
“When you pass through the rivers…”
Isaiah’s readers would have likely been reminded of the time God dried up the Jordan River for the Israelites when they were crossing over with the ark of the Lord. They even built a memorial, so that generations to come would remember God’s presence. (You ...
