******We reach our hands up in faith, and God reaches down to us with His great grace. **Amazing Grace *When we were yet sinners. *We can't use the crown if it stays in the box ****Saved BY Grace, THROUGH Faith, UNTO Good Works *How far do you agree with these statements? 1. The "good works" of unsaved people are "dead", and are as "filthy rags" to God. 2. We are under Satan's control until we are spiritually reborn through faith in Jesus. 3. We are saved by faith and grace, not works. Good works after our spiritual rebirth signifies true faith. 4. God is not impressed by the "good works"

It was commonly used of those heavenly spirits, who closely surrounded the Majesty of God and paid Him intimate service. Hence it came to mean as much as "Angelic Spirit". (The change from K of Karâbu, to K of Kirub is nothing unusual in Assyrian. The word has been brought into connection with the Egyptian Xefer by metathesis from Xeref=

Why is it that we have four gospels? The answer is: We do not have four gospels. We have only one gospel. That gospel is given in the person of Jesus Christ. In the four gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John we are given four different pespectives on Jesus. Each of us see Jesus in our own personal way depending on our circumstances, needs and interaction. We present Jesus to others depending on the way they feel the need of Jesus. Mathew, Mark , Luke and John wrote the gospels presenting their view of Jesus for a people who were in particular need. Early church fathers saw in the pic

Cherubim

A Study on Cherubim CEUM HB RI Prof. M.M.Ninan The word cherub (cherubim is the Hebrew masculine plural) is a word borrowed from the Assyrian kirubu, from karâbu, "to be near", hence it means near ones, familiars, personal servants, bodyguards, courtiers. It was commonly used of those heavenly spirits, who closely surrounded the Majesty of God and paid Him intimate service. Hence it came to mean as much as "Angelic Spirit". (The change from K of Karâbu, to K of Kirub is nothing unusual in Assyrian. The word has been brought into connection with the Egyptian Xefer by metathesis from Xeref=

The Angel of the Lord

1 *The Angel of the Lord Prof.M.M.Ninan In Hebrew, the word for "angel" is malakh. A malakh simply means the messenger. It could be human, terrestrial, alien, material or immaterial being in other dimensions. Yet there is one malakh who stands out from all the rest. The Bible calls him, "The Angel of the Lord." In the Talmud he is called Metatarsus, which derives from two Greek words’ meta and thronos, meaning "one who serves behind the throne of God." He is also known as the "Prince of the Countenance" because of the close relation between this angel and God Himself. The Angel of the Lord

At the time of Jesus, India had a very flourishing civilization. It is normal for any country to claim a civilization, which started from the beginning of creation. But this is just a feature of nationalism. The reality is that there had always been civilizations in regions, which sustained life all over the world.
