Jesus Came To Save Sinners

Midweek Devotions - 1st Timothy 1st Timothy 1:15-17 15  The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost. 16  But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life. 17  To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. Term 2 has officially started! I hope and pray that everyone had a wonderful school holiday spent with your respective loved ones, families and friends, strengthening each other with God’s Benevolent Love, and refreshing ourselves with comfort and peace of the Holy Spirit! As Christ is in you, may His grace and favour find you all well.

Law Is For The Lawless

(Midweek Devotion - 1 Timothy) 1 Timothy 1:8-11 8 Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully, 9 understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, 10 the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine, 11 in accordance with the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted. One of the known errors if not carefully watched over in Christianity is the culture of antinomianism. Antinomianism is a religious principle in which salvation is by faith and by divine grace and that one who are saved are no longer bound to abide in any moral laws, i.e the ten commandments . Faithful Christian denominations rebuke this principle as it does not corresponds to the command of one who is saved in reflection or m
