Trusting God Sincerely & Taking Refuge in Him

Jun P. Espina June 7, 2017February 13, 2020

In Psalm 34:8, we find God continually inviting us to His boundless love and grace. "O taste and see that the Lord is good; How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!" Making God your shelter in this life has an added incentive of <b>blessedness</b>. The "Lord is good" if you will just decide to "taste and see" the experience. Sincerely trusting God and taking refuge in Him by faith open the door of Heaven's blessings. This inwardness we venture to call as faith experience only starts to develop after hearing and meditating upon God's blessed promises. "For...

Earthly People After the Millennium – Ruled by the Believers

Jun P. Espina June 1, 2017February 13, 2020

We, Adam's children, are the summit of God’s creation. We were created to trust in Jesus Christ for our salvation from hell for our Maker’s big plan for us in the universe beyond the span of time. Those rejecters and deniers of our Lord Jesus couldn't be a part of this sacred grand design. His program, according to the Scriptures, is to let Christ's born-again followers and all those saved people since the days of old ( all those partakers of the First Resurrection!) run the affairs of God’s earthly people after the Millennium. We will be kings and...

Paradoxical Christian Teaching: Comfort in Affliction

Jun P. Espina June 1, 2017February 14, 2020

The Bible teaches that there is peace for Christ’s followers amidst the storms of life. It is a paradoxical Christian teaching at the surface. The wisdom of this world suggests the idea of a predictable peace right after the tempest. Hence, the cliche: “peace after the storm” or “darkest hour before the dawn.” But what divine teaching is it that there is peace and comfort while one is in the limbo of trials and sufferings?

Christian Holy Week Observance Examined Biblically

Jun P. Espina April 14, 2017February 14, 2020

One significant question is that if we are real born-again Christians, do we need to celebrate or observe the Holy Week? In just a mouse click away, we could google dozens of the list of religious holidays (or holydays?) The Jewish religion, Islam, Catholicism, Seventh Day Adventism, among other religious groups observe "holidays requiring absence from work beyond existing Statutory Holidays." What is the meaning of the Christian Holy Week observance among the Catholics and other Christians denominations?

God’s Word Proves Faith in Christ Versus Bible Ignorance

Jun P. Espina April 1, 2017February 15, 2020

Liberal theologians are now advancing the false teaching of believing in Christ without necessarily taking the entire Holy Scriptures as God’s Word. You may have heard someone saying "I do believe in your Christ, but I don’t believe in your Bible.” Without a shadow of a doubt, if examined through the revelations of the Scriptures, such a doctrine is misleading and distorted. God's Word proves that real faith in Christ only happens after a hugging conviction of the Bible's truthfulness and dependability. Wrote the apostle Paul that "faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ." (Rom....

God Owns Everything Except Our Decision to Live in Heaven

Jun P. Espina March 29, 2017April 26, 2020

Where is the Arrogance About Life When God Owns Everything? At the prime of his life, age 36, a friend of mine died of heart attack. Very healthy and robust, but his heart failed him one day during a party. Yes, the first symptom of a heart attack is death, the number one killer disease. […]
