NCC - ACTS Week 1
We should serve as stepping stones toward Jesus, not obstacles. In everything we do, let us guide others to Jesus and direct our actions toward Him.
-God didn't make it hard for us. He freely gives salvation; all we need to do is accept, trust, and believe to receive it. We shouldn't complicate it for others. His grace and mercy are enough for everyone.
-The manifest presence of God balances the reality of the Law. The burden is already lifted! Jesus says to take upon His yoke for it is light.
-God restores his people so that the rest of the world may know Him. He turns all things around for our good and His glory.
