Word of Christ – Planter, Pastor, Preacher

When Christ Is Your Life

In the version of the Lord’s Prayer, taken from Matthew’s Gospel, we pray, “And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors” (Matt. 6:12 KJV). The word translated “debts” implies that we have an obligation due God that requires forgiveness. Of course, Jesus uses this financial term figuratively for sin, an offense against the holiness of God that imputes an insurmountable debt, a debt we cannot pay.

Hope in Those (These) Days

“For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed” (1 Cor. 15:52), conformed in glory to the image of our Lord. Until that day in these days, let us encourage one another with the Word of Christ, for it will never pass away.
