Spiritual Blessings

Image
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ (Ephesians 1:3) God the Father has blessed all those who are Christians. What does it mean to be blessed by God? It means that one has been favoured by God to receive a good of some kind. Our God is a gracious God who blesses His people with various things. In the beginning, for example, God blessed Adam and Eve so that they would be fruitful and would increase in number ( Genesis 1:28). What specific blessings, however, does the Apostle Paul have in mind in our verse? He says we have been blessed with every "spiritual blessing." What does this mean?

Psalms 33:20 Our soul has waited for the Lord;  Psalms 27:4 Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the LORD!  The idea of...

MIRACLES OF JESUS

Image
Wikipedia describes a miracle as an event not ascribable to human power or the  laws of nature  and consequently attributed to a supernatural, especially  divine , agency. We believe God regularly works through created nature yet is free to work without, above, or against it as well. A total of about 35 of miraculous events are described by the four gospels as being brought about by our Lord during His ministry on earth. It is safe to assume He did many more. See John 21:25. Our purpose here is to analyze what were His motives in performing the miracles, what He achieved through them and why should we study them.                                                         ...
