From the Show

God is working in us and bringing to us to the new creation. There are not new elements to our justification, but day-by-day we are being sanctified, drawn towards our glorification. Our confidence is not in ourselves and if we will make it, it’s in God’s grace and promise to preserve us.

Assurance in the Shadow of Doubt

Assurance in the Shadow of Doubt

The coexistence of assurance and doubt is not a contradiction, but a reflection of the Christian life lived between justification and glorification. True assurance rests not in the strength of one’s faith, but in the object of that faith—Jesus Christ—and the presence of doubt, while unsettling, does not nullify genuine belief.

Deliverance from the Divine Gavel

Deliverance from the Divine Gavel

In Christ, you need not fear God’s gavel on the last day—let alone man’s lesser gavels. You can even look forward to that divine gavel with joyful anticipation, for it will signal God’s irreversible declaration that in Christ, you are innocent.

Why God Swore an Oath to You

When you are in the throes of suffering, mantras and meditations fall short. We need a more concrete hope. Pastor Adriel Sanchez unpacks Hebrews 6:13–20 and shows how God gives us a sure and unshakable word that anchors us when our faith is shaken by doubt and suffering.
