Deny Yourself Daily: No Looking Back

No Looking Back

This is a video that I, by the Grace of God, clicked on when I was on YouTube tonight. It is a video of a song by Mainstay compiled by a dear Christian brother of mine. Needless to say, it's late and I knew the Lord had me up for a reason...there was something on my conscience. I had never even heard this song before, but when I watched this, I wept. It's overwhelming to see how far the Lord has brought me in my walk with Him...He never fails to keep opening my eyes so that I may behold wondrous things out of His law (Psalm 119:18). And this video is a glimpse of the journey that you are taken on as a Child of the Most High. You forget about everything that you have heard, everything that the world has offered to you. You forget about all of it, all the false hopes, all the self-help, and you aren't satisfied with anything less than the glory of Christ. It's real. This has happened for me...and no matter what, I'm not turning back. I can't, I'm too taken by His Glory.

"I don't care who I am...I lost that interest."

This blog was made for one reason: to bring glory to the Kingdom of God. In a world where the truth has been exchanged for a lie, I'm here to contend for Biblical truth and to get the word out about the one true Gospel of Jesus Christ. Nothing fancy, just a way to share beliefs on Biblical Christianity and to provide a sound source for people out there hungry for the truth, not just another vain and empty worldview.

In order for us to understand the Good News of the Gospel we must first understand the bad news: we are born separated from God and dead in our trespasses of sin. Anyone who has broken just ONE of God's laws is guilty and deserving of an eternal death. There is nothing that we can do to "help ourselves" out of this, it must take an act of God. It is Christ alone who rescues a sinner's heart and transforms it into a new one that desire's to know God, therefore it is Christ alone who gets the glory. This work of salvation is a gift from the Lord and comes by humbling yourself before Him and repenting of your sins and believing on Christ's substitution death on the cross. Those receiving God's free gift of grace are forgiven of their sins and are chosen to live a life here on earth as well as for all eternity with the Lord. WHAT GREAT NEWS! Unfortunatly many professing Christian's have taken on the name and have forgotten to "count the cost" of what it means to be a true follower of Christ. It is important that we search the scriptures to uncover the true Gospel so we can learn about the life of self-denial that we have been called to live.
