Some people say I would love to take a selfie with Moses. Do you understand the gap between Moses and God?
Lukewarm people think about life on earth much more often than eternity in heaven.

Show true religion, cause words don’t relieve.
Yes, it is God who works in you. And, yes, there is work for you to do. Yes, the Spirit empowers you to do the work. And, yes, you do the work.
Allow God to be as creative with you as He is with each of us.
James 2:19- ‘You believe there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that- and shudder.’ God doesn’t just want us to have good theology; He wants us to know and love Him.
The disciples obey because that’s what people do when someone rises from the dead and gives instructions.

Which is more messed up- that we have so much compared to everyone else, or that we don’t think we’re rich? That on any given day, we might flippantly call ourselves ‘broke’ or ‘poor?’ We are neither of those things. We are rich. Filthy rich.
