Posted on 06/11/2021 by remso

Posted on 02/04/2021 by remso

It seems that I have been in 1 Timothy for months, and I need a break, but as I sit here pondering whether to go on and dive into 2 Timothy, which has a wealth of depth in it, my … Continue reading →

So, we have had our elections, but anxiety could easily overtake us.

Posted on 11/07/2020 by remso

So, we’ve had our elections, and as of Wednesday morning 11/4/2020, we are deeply entrenched in the voting scandals we expected. I have been seeing the 96-mile long vehicle rallies for Trump, the crowds of people who attend the political … Continue reading →

I was asked the question, does the Lord give us trials that we cannot handle?

Posted on 06/18/2020 by remso

Shortly after the question had been put forth, George Floy was murdered; a new, riotous, political, protest group was formed and began to rampage across the nation; and not just protests, but rioting, and looting broke out. I don’t care … Continue reading →

Posted on 05/02/2020 by remso

Posted on 04/17/2020 by remso

As we close out chapter 15, I feel I need to recap verses 20, 21. My ambition has always been to preach the Good News where the name of Christ has never been heard, rather than where a church has … Continue reading →

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus. Romans 8:1

Posted on 04/13/2020 by remso

This idea of confessing, as though it was a continual act of slaughtering a lamb for your sins, does not change God’s heart toward you. 1 John 1:9 NASB says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Continue reading →

Paul tells us why Romans 8:1 works. Romans 8:2-4.

Posted on 04/13/2020 by remso

We learned in Romans 8:1 that there is NOW (an ever-present tense) NO condemnation. To me, an obvious conclusion is that this applies to my relationship with the Father through Jesus Christ. So what does Romans 8:2 tell us? For … Continue reading →

Posted on 04/12/2020 by remso

The letter to the Church that met in Rome was written approximately A.D. 58, from Corinth. In it, Paul very distinctly asserts that he is now the minister to the Gentiles. Romans 15:14-16 NASB And concerning you, my brethren, I … Continue reading →
