The Day Is Approaching

let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in the full assurance
of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty
conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.
Let us hold unswerving to the hope we profess, for he who promised
is faithful.

And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and
good deeds.
Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of
doing, but let us encourage one another—and all the more as you see the
Day approaching.

Hebrews 10:22-25


Nothing Can Separate Us

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,
neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth,
nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love
of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:38,39

“What about supernatural forces?
What about people and power and demons and strange forces?” …

“There is nothing left out of that list, is there? Everything
is there – demons and dark powers, black magic and angels,
truth and error, death and life – whether in this creation
or any other creation. Paul takes everything in and says that
nothing, no being or force, is capable of separating us from
the love of Jesus Christ our Lord.

So we love God when we
say,” If God be for us, who can be against us?” We love God
because of what he himself has done on our behalf, and the
nature of that commitment is that he loves us. Nothing can
separate us from that.”
