Confidence In Christ
Isn’t it so great to know that as long as we have confidence in Jesus Christ that one day we will be called up in to heaven to stand by his side and witness all his glory and dwell with him for ever and ever? Do you know this? II Corinthians-5:5-9 Now he that hath wrought us for the self same thing is God. who also hath given unto us the earnest of the spirit. 6 Therefore we are always confident. knowing that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord. 7 For we walk by faith not by sight. 8 We are confident, I say and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. 9 Wherefore we labor that, Whether present or absent. We may be accepted of him. I am glad to have that confidence to know that some day He will come back and claim his children, which I am glad to be called one of his, a child of God. Praise His Holy Name Amen’

PROBLEMS
We all have problems whether it be at church or at work or at home. satan tries to destroy every thing that is good and holy. He trys to destroy the church through the congregation, who lets him take over their hearts., and then they speak harm of one and another, and cause trouble for the church as a whole. At work when your boss or fellow workers give you a much harder time than usual, at home when our children or our spouses just seem to do all they can to get on our nerves. But we need to always remember there is always someone to turn to. Our saviour Jesus Christ. Hebrews 10:23-24-25 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; for he is faithful as promised. 24-And let us consider one another to provoke into love and to good works.-25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another; and so much the more as we see the day approaching.

LOVE OF GOD
The love of God is so awsome, God does so much for us , answers prayers, heals the sick, watches over us where ever we go or what ever we do. Works miracles and so much more, but the greatest thing he did was gave his only begotten son so we could be saved. 1John 5:1-5 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and everyone that loveth him that begat loveth him, also that is be gotten of him. 2 By this we know that we love the children of God. When we love God and keep his commandments. 3 For this is the love of God. that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world; and this is the victory that overcometh the world , even our faith. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the son of God. Praise Him' for what an awsome God He is.

NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD
The new covenant God made through Jesus was above and beyond the covenant He made with Moses at Sinai. The old covenant fell short in effectivness because the people could never live up to it. Moses was merely the represenitive of the people, but Jesus was the represenitive of Almighty God. What the blood animals could never accomplish, Jesus' blood provided at the cross; redemption from sin, the promise of the Holy Spirit, and eternal life. And for this cause he is the meditator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemtion of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might recieve the promise of eternal inheritence. Hebrews 9:15.....

Temptation
James gives us a good insight on understanding temptation, James 1:12-18 All temptation found in the Bible was not bad. The blessings available in temptation is found only by enduring it (12) It helps us to endure when we realize that our inner surging passions are not from God. they are rooted in our sin nature since God is never attracted by evil, any attraction we fell to wrong cannot, and does not come from Him there is a temptation process we feel an inclination to evil; we submit and engage in an act of sin, then a pattern of sin takes root in our lives. James wanted us to recognize that first inclination for what it is and resist acting on our passions {13-15} But through every temptation God gives his good gifts and He remains unshadowed, Nothing can cut off or interrupt, the light He gives (16-17) He has given us his life; He intends to see us ripen and mature to fruitfulness. Just as first fruits were early ripening grains and fruits brought to Gods temple as a special thanks offering. So our good works in spite of temptation honor him. Temptation-Several Hebrew and Greek words express the idea of trial or trust or enticement and thus of temptation
