How can we avoid judging others on a superficial, external level? How can we put off the old and live as new creations in Christ? How can we engage in the great task of reconciling others to God? Who around us can we urge and implore to accept the free gift of salvation through Christ? If we were living for Jesus this week, that’s what we’d be doing. Let’s give it a try. Read More ...
God’s work of reconciling the world to himself continues today through people like us. We have the ministry of proclaiming the word of reconciliation to our generation. Read More ...
This is a message by Pastor Andrew Buhrow, director of Baptists for Life of Wisconsin.
We could describe the body of Christ as the whole spiritual body of true Christian believers of the church age regardless of location or circumstances. I.e., all church-age believers in Jesus. Read More ...
C. Really, it’s only Christians who have the right to celebrate this holiday. Those who don’t know the Lord have nothing to celebrate. Jesus is not their savior. They are still lost, blind, and dead in transgressions and sins. They don’t enjoy any of the benefits that come from knowing Christ as Lord and Savior. They have no hope and are without God in the world. Read More ...

This great change is something God does—he is working in us “both to will and to do of his good pleasure” (Phil 2:13). Growth and maturity in the Christian life come from yielding ourselves to God (cf. Rom 6:13). Life begins to change when we live for him who died for us (cf. vs. 15). Read More ...
The central truth of the Christian Gospel is that Jesus died for us and rose again. His death and resurrection have monumental significance for us. It provides both salvation and motivation for obedience and service. Because Jesus died for us, we should respond by living for him. Read More ...
I hope all of us strive to value things that are eternal and profound rather than things that are flashy, superficial, and shallow. Christians have historically promoted things that are good, beautiful, and true. Our culture values just the opposite—things that are wicked, ugly, and false. We should love what God loves and hate what God hates. Read More ...
