  1. Saved to Be Loved Forever

    Comments Off on Saved to Be Loved Forever
    Saved to Be Loved Forever — a word by Pastor Caleb Yetton from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "It isn’t just to avoid God’s wrath. At the same time, salvation is for a reason. It is something for us to experience, FOREVER."

    “[God] raised us up with Him and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages He might show the immeasurable riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.” — Ephesians 2:6-7 

    This verse is undeniably fantastic! I’d encourage you to meditate on it specifically this week. Just think about this glorious future you have in Christ in Heaven.

  2. Justice

    Justice – a word by Pastor Billy Johnson from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "we have an eternal future to worship Him in resurrected bodies that aren’t burdened by sin, All because He loved us enough to demand justice."

    God does not turn a blind eye to injustice. To my shame, I can wrongly assume that if justice isn’t served immediately, justice won’t be served at all. As a result, I mistake God’s grace or patience as “looking the other way” when a sin is committed against Him or His creation. I am wrong. God does not “look the other way” when we sin or are sinned against. He doesn’t let anything slip through the cracks. Surely, there is no statute of limitations with God. 

    Next time you question His goodness (or His seemingly slow timing) remember this. God is our judge; we are not His. Indeed, it is sinful for us to judge Him. He is slow to anger, but this does not mean He will let sin and evil prevail.
