Sola Fide | Justified and Righteous By Faith

August 26, 2019

Within the context of faith, two important topics quickly surface as we explore the idea that we receive salvation by faith alone. First, that our legal right standing does not come from our own actions, but instead comes from the actions of God. Second, that our righteousness comes by faith rather than our faith coming from our righteousness. All salvation comes by grace alone (Sola Gratia) so that no one would be able to boast. This applies also to our faith. The very fabric of our faith comes by the grace of God that justifies our right standing before the judgment of God and sets us our feet on the foundation of righteousness.

Y’all remember Mr. Donut man? That dude was amazing. Caleb and Danny think back on Mr. Donut man and the incredible early 90s children’s worship. Also we discuss the people who helped Danny grow up.

Sola Fide | The Substance of Faith

August 19, 2019

Make no mistake. We are dead in our sins. There is nothing we can do to merit our salvation and our justification as these are acts of Grace Alone (Sola Gratia). Yet, every day, we see people move from death to life by the grace of God to live in eternity in Heaven. “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” (‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2:8-10‬ ‭ESV‬‬) We produce nothing from our good works and every step of our salvation comes from God.

Area 51 may be holding the universe’s biggest secrets. Probably nothing though. So please, please, please do not go run towards an active military base.
Caleb and Danny look at the joke that snowballed into a place where people may be actually going to at least the area. So much so that the Air Force tweeted a response and the hotels are booked leaving a little town questioning whether they can handle the influx of people. The person who started the joke learned a great lesson about the power of words.

Protecting Innocence in “Good Boys”

August 12, 2019

New chapters can be difficult. We step into the unknown, trusting that God has actually planned our steps and believing that His plan will never fail us. Going off to college is undoubtedly met with both excitement as far as you wander into this new stage. Furthermore, remember God sustains everything, through the highs and lows. You are never alone and never beyond God’s grace or ability to love, guide, and protect you. He is a loving King jealously pursues you.

Sola Gratia | Justification and Adoption

August 5, 2019

Grace is perhaps, the simplest of all Christian doctrines and yet the one we have the most trouble believing. Grace, being the unmerited favor of God given to mankind for their salvation, remains the crux of doctrine. We contribute nothing to our salvation nor can we. Yet, we desperately want to be responsible in some manner for our salvation. Deep down, we carry a long to know we are good enough and attempt to prove it through the only way we know how to prove things; our actions. Yet, our actions produced only death within us and nothing more. On our own, our actions produce spiritual death which even goes so far to take a physical and emotional toil on our bodies. Yet Jesus Christ, by grace, as a random for our sin, died in our place in a manner only He could, so that we might obtain life.
