Kingship and Lordship | Feeling Led and Our Calling

November 25, 2019

One of the major issues with only focusing on our relationship with Jesus Christ comes when we confront our sin face to face. Friendships, as we understand them, put us on level playing fields of authority with the other person. While we certain have been declared friends of God, this friendship is balanced alongside the Kingship of Jesus Christ. When we first commit our lives to Jesus Christ, this is only the first step. This is the rebirth into the newness of our life. As we grow in our relationship and understanding of the Kingship and Lordship of Jesus Christ, we allow the Holy Spirit to shape and direct our actions to reflect the will of God. We do not simply not sin but in making Jesus Christ the Lord and King of our lives, we allow the direction of God to guide every aspect of what we do.

Kingship and Lordship | Submission to The King

November 4, 2019

In today’s age, we find ourselves in the opposite problem but the same solution nonetheless. Today, we have swung so far to decentralization that even the concept of truth lacks any real form. Pluralism and the idea of subjective truth has ravaged our ability to, not only pursue God, but also to express our faith without drawing criticism, accusations of bigotry and hatred, and in some places violence. The church, even today, is in dire need of a reformation of sorts. We, as Christians, face a severe problem of Biblical Illiteracy in our faith. Now, more than ever, we must be willing to engage in the depths of theology as we seek a greater understanding of the scriptures as the self-revelation of God, all for the glory of God.

Soli Deo Gloria | Faith As Bowing to Glory of God

Works do not obligate God to provide us with salvation but instead they provide the evidence that a transformation has taken place within a person. One cannot encounter the risen Lord without some sort of inward transformation that displays in an outward expression. Where justification declares a guilty person to be innocent, righteousness an unholy person as holy, and adoption an enemy of God as a child of God, salvation works in person to bring the dead to life. No one can come from death to life without displaying the Lordship of Jesus Christ in their lives through faith in Him and
