God Raised Jesus

Since my last entry, I have read 1 Samuel 6:13-13:11 and Acts 12:1-14:6. My favorite verses are:

1 Samuel 12:22 For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name’s sake: because it hath pleased the LORD to make you his people.

Acts 13:30 But God raised him from the dead:

God is the One who decides how He cares for us. It pleases Him to treat His people well. He does require obedience from us, but He loves us whether we obey or not. He disciplines us in love when we need it, and He forgives us when we confess to Him that we have done wrong. All of this is possible because of Jesus Christ who died for our sins. One of the greatest statements of our Christian faith is in Acts 13:30. Because Christ lives, we too can live—for eternity! God is Good.
