Second Street PCA John C. Black

We know that God can do anything, but what is he willing to do? God can do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine. But we limit our prayers by doubting not God's power but His willingness.

If you want to mature as a Christian, pray for the love of Christ to be poured into your heart by the Father through the Holy Spirit. This is Paul's prayer for all believers.

God displays His manifold wisdom to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places (over which Jesus Christ as been elevated) throught the Church. The Church is the eternal plan of God in Christ, therefore, we are not to lose heart. Christ will build His church of which we are a living, vital part.

The Kingdom is where God rules. The Family of God is where God indwells. The Temple is where God lives. Christians are together members of all three.

Not only were we dead in our sin, but we were separated and alienated from our only hope.

We were dead. But God.
