Trials and Temptation

4 months ago —by Jason Corder 340

Temptation is very different than life’s trials, trials also test us but for a very different purpose. Trials seek to reveal our moral qualities or character; temptation however seeks to corrupt our character and break our moral compass. Trials reveal the measure of a person, while temptations seek to corrupt and destroy the good within us. One aims to make us better causing us to be more conscious of our true moral self; but the other seeks to awaken and then blind us to our own evil within. God tries; Satan tempts.

Even more importantly, we want to see our kids grow in Christ and hit it out of the park spiritually. Remarkably the foundation for a focused purposeful Christian life starts very young.

Some times in the wilderness periods we lose hope, but often following the wilderness wondering are times of out greatest production.

Risen!

1 year ago —by Jason Corder 877

As Jesus extends his hand toward us the evidence of the cost of sin still remains imprinted there, but death and sin have no mastery over him He faced sin without failure and has faced death conquering mankind’s ultimate enemy. Christ’s victory over the grave gives us assurance of our own victory through his power demonstrated so humbly all those years ago.

Lost and Found, lessons with Jesus

1 year ago —by Jason Corder 937

Have you ever noticed that when we read a novel or watch a movie we tend to identify with a person, group of people, or situation in it. It seems to be a natural human characteristic to find personal connections with a story. No doubt that is why Jesus often used the parables to teach the crowds.

When we hear of an untimely death or acts of violence we Naturally ask, “Why?” Why did this have to happen to this person? Perhaps the victim was a good loving person, a family person, or a valued citizen.

Wouldn’t Popeye have been better off if he had he eaten a well-balanced diet every day, including the healthy doses of spinach? That way, he would have been well fortified and ready to face whatever crisis arose, rather than having to wolf down his spinach in the heat of the battle.
