How to know God always keeps his promises

Part I: his continued love for the nation of Israel 

Scripture Reference: Romans 11:1-24 

   Paul states that even though Israel rejected Jesus as their King and were set aside for the sake of the Gentiles, he has not forsaken them as some would indicate. 


There are two proofs that God continues to love his people Israel: 


Proof # 1: Israel always has a believing remnant (11:1-10) 

  The Jewish followers of Christ are a result of God’s loving grace and mercy which shows that coming to know Jesus is not according to works as promoted by those who continue performing works based on traditions that were made obsolete by his sacrifice on the Cross. 


Proof # 2: Israel’s rejection of the Gospel is temporary (11:11-24)

  The Time will come when the Church that is currently the instrument God uses to spread the Gospel will be finished. He will then turn his attention to Israel and bring them to salvation during the Great Tribulation uniting it with the Church that will come with Christ in his Second Coming. 

  We are commanded by God to pray for and love Israel since they are still God’s Chosen people who will eventually come to know Jesus as Lord and Savior. 


  Scripture References: Isaiah 54; Isaiah 55 6-11; Ephesians 2:8-9; Luke 8:4- 8; Hebrews 12:5-11; Isaiah 29:10-13; John 15:1; Zechariah 12:10; Proverbs 11:2; Psalm 89; Number 15:18-2; Psalm 69:23;

Dear loved ones

  Dear loved and valued one,      I writing this to you in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Jesus who I believe is the blessed Savoir and Son of God. I know that may not be what you believe and I respect that, Even though I personally may not agree. This is not going to be a long attempt at trying to prove or convince you of anything. There are many more places to explore the deity of Jesus,The historical nature of the bible and the many question that arise in relation to the bible. I hope not to offend but offer what many Christians, including me,view as a gift. The gift of forgiveness and salvation. This letter is my attempt to say in a simple terms  how to be forgiven and to make sure that you have you have joined the family of God. I will try and keep it short but will quote a few bible verses , Why do Christians quote the bible?  it is because we feel as 2 Timothy 3:16  says "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righ

Christmas ?

-
                                                                   Christmas?   Christmas, Easter the Sabbath day bring disputes over whether they are PAGAN or is it the right day. So earlier in the last few weeks I overheard a conversation between a sister in Christ when she tried to witness to a person. As she was witnessing he asked her "but what about the Sabbath when do you worship" and she admitted on Sunday. The person then said "what about Christmas do you celebrate" and she said "yes" and he immediately began to talk about the fact that sunday was not the sabbath and Christmas is pagan day and we do not know when Jesus was actually born. The message of the Gospel could have been sidetracked as she tried to defend celebrating Christmas and Sundays. We are going to speak about her response later.    2 Timothy 2:14 says "Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to
