“Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.”
“For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh.”
Let’s flesh out what the spirit is saying to us, and get our flesh out of the way so the spirit can work through us.
Why I believe in the Pre-Tribulation Rapture, part 1
Regardless of the rapture timing, will you spend eternity with Jesus or separated from Him? Will you accept the free gift of salvation that He is offering you, or will you turn up your nose and turn your back on your creator who while you were yet a sinner, while you were yet powerless, while you were still His enemy became your sin and took the punishment from God for your sin in hopes that you would meet another saved sinner and hear about what Jesus did for them and come to the realization that he loves you more fiercely than you could ever begin to imagine. He has more compassion and grace for you than you could ever spend in two eternities. God emptied the treasuries of Heaven and sent His son, Jesus, to pay the price for the sins you and I commit each and every day that would separate us from right standing before God. He redeems and restores us because we could never do it ourselves. We don’t deserve it, we cant repay him for it and that’s just how He likes it.
A Hostage Situation
The freedom Christ brings is not so that we can be let loose to find our own path and discover our own truth. Rather its like a lion rescued from a circus cage, and released on the Sahara. We are rescued from our cage to be released and fulfill the purpose for which we were made.
No Evidence of forced entry
The Christian life is characterized by us learning to live our new life in Christ to glorify God, and Satan trying to prevent us from doing that. When you put your faith In Christ, you are signing up for a battle you don’t see happening, and you need to learn what tactics the enemy is going to use to get into your heart and head without any sign of forced entry.
GETTING IN BETTER RUNNING SHAPE FOR 2023
The first thing you want to do when you line up on the starting line of a marathon is to check and make sure you haven’t tied some weights to yourself, and aren’t dragging 135 lbs on a rope secured to your waist.

Priorities - How to master your To-Do list and eliminate anxiety.
The other day I was thinking It had been a rather successful day of construction Skee-ball, but then I thought, I wonder if Jesus considered my day successful? Then I wondered how would Jesus actually define success? What did Jesus have to say about priorities? Am I living a life that my culture and co-workers deem successful, but my Creator finds wanting?
Lets get back to work
The eternal implications of what you spend your time on earth doing, working on, are laid out in scripture… If we are saved for works, and not by works, what are those works for?
Made to praise
We were created to praise, and God has blessed us with EVERY SPIRITUAL BLESSING to equip us to finally praise him how he deserves and how he intended. Are you ready?

What is the abundant life Jesus offers all of us really about, and how can I live it?
