The Eclipse Of God
Just as the moon obscures the sun’s light during an eclipse, today’s radical secularism has obscured the light of God. But God’s light still shines—and He is calling us to shine His light in our growing darkness. Is God more tolerant than He used to be? Pastor Lutzer shows how God is both a God of wrath as well as grace; that He is both merciful and just, and both a redeemer and a judge. Deepen your love for our unchangeable God of the Bible and be empowered to proclaim the light of truth in a culture of darkness.

Only a Christian can be certain that all of life is heading toward a future glory. That’s why believers know that all things, even the bad things, work together for good for those who love God.

Christians get socked by life’s reversals like anyone else. But there’s a crucial difference. Believers know they have a permanent home where no foreclosure is possible… and where all suffering will end. But we never groan alone during trials.
January 13, 2017
As believers, we long to be free of the limitations and pains of this body. Suffering is a lot easier to bear when we have hope for a future day when all suffering will cease. That’s the hope Paul speaks of in the marvelous eighth chapter of Romans.

It’s tough to be optimistic when slogging through hard times. Some try to grin and bear it; others crack under the pressure. But Christians can have a different perspective: awaiting a future glory that makes our present suffering infinitesimal in comparison.

“The Spirit bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then… joint heirs with Christ.” Romans 8 gives believers the riches of heaven despite being unworthy sinners. God invites us into the throne room to partake of His bounty.

Think life’s tough for you? Just wait. Think you’ve always gotten the short end of life’s stick? Just wait. As a member of the body of Christ, your inheritance is earning interest right now in the bank of heaven. One day: you’ll make a withdrawal.

From Romans 8 we learn that the Holy Spirit bestows Christians with the desire for intimacy with God. In fact, even the desire to call Him “daddy.” Can you call God “Papa”?

An heir—that’s exactly what you are as a child of God. You’re an heir to a fortune, and didn’t know it. In Romans, we read: “we are children of God, and if children, then heirs, joint heirs with Christ.”

Many people try to satisfy themselves with things that only make finding satisfaction more elusive. But the believer in Christ has a new life with new desires. Here are more reasons why Christians are indeed “Children of an Awesome God.”
January 4, 2017
As believers in Christ, we have a future beyond the reach of the bill collector, beyond the reach of our failures and sins, a future safe in the hands of God. He guarantees that for believers, there is no condemnation in the life to come.
