Linked Together: Questions About Christ

Two suggestions for your weekend reading and thinking.

His Nature
Why do Christians believe Jesus is God?  Here are eleven reasons with scripture references (Nathan Busenitz).

His Work
Who am I in Christ? I am forgiven, declared righteous, and heir of God, and more. Scripture references included here, too (Trevin Wax).

Incarnate Son

At Out of the Ordinary, I posted the lastest in a series of posts on truths every Christian woman should know.

When God’s Son, the second person of the Trinity, came into our world from his place at the Father’s side, God instructed that he be named Jesus, which means God saves, because “he will save his people from their sins” (Matthew 1:21). The meaning of his name pointed to the purpose of his coming: The eternal Son of God came to save his people. This is his planned role in the Triune God’s plan of redemption.

Read the rest of The Son Came.

Thankful Thursday

Join me in thanking God for the past week’s blessings.

I’m thankful 

• for work done, for God-given energy and focus. 
• for this week’s visitors and guests—those who stayed for a few minutes, for a few hours, for a meal, or overnight.
• for save travel for the travelers in the family, and for joyful homecomings.
• for summer weather and summer food, especially fresh salads and ice cream cones.
• for fun with the grandchildren. 
• that the Son came (link won’t work until tomorrow morning). 

Kim was thankful today, too.
