Episode Highlights
Welcome aboard, fellow seekers! You're tuning in to another episode of "Interviewing Jesus Podcast" Think of us as your personal GPS navigating the highways and byways of the extraordinary. Today, we're setting the coordinates for a deep dive into the spiritual realm, a journey that defies the constraints of time and place. Picture this: You're standing face to face with a figure who has shaped the world as we know it. You're looking into the eyes of Jesus Christ, the personification of divine love and wisdom. And you've got one question that's been on your mind: "What went happened, what occurred, did anything change, on the day I started to believe?" an encounter you will never forget... BINGE LISTEN...
As your question floats in the air, reality starts to warp. Time becomes fluid, and you're catapulted back to that life-changing moment—the day when faith sparked within you. In His kind and compassionate way, Jesus begins to narrate the sequence of events, painting a picture rich with grace, hope, and transformation. You see through His eyes the stirring of your heart, the moment doubts receded, and your soul felt the divine touch. He talks about those late-night chats you had with yourself, the prayers mumbled alone, and the tears shed in the silence of the night. Jesus traces the route you've taken since that day, spotlighting the high and low points, the lessons absorbed, and the love that's steered you. He points out the strength you unearthed in your weakest moments and the light that pierced through the darkest times. In this divine exchange, you realize that your belief wasn't just a fleeting moment, but an ongoing journey—one that continues to evolve with each new day. As the vision wanes and you're back in the present, you're left with a deep sense of peace and purpose, knowing that your faith is a guiding star that will never fail you. So, let's get started, folks! Today, we're cracking open the mysteries of faith, the might of belief, and the everlasting presence of divine love. Welcome to dear family—where the extraordinary is everyday stuff. Scripture Treasure"But everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’ ” Acts 2:21 Passion “The tax collector stood alone in a corner, away from the Holy Place, and covered his face in his hands, feeling that he was unworthy even to look up to God. Beating his breast, he sobbed with brokenness and tears saying, ‘God, please, in your mercy and because of the blood sacrifice, forgive me, for I am nothing but the most miserable of all sinners!’ Luke 18:13 Passion Because of this compelling urgency I am so keen to preach to you Romans also. I have no shame about sharing the Good News of Christ with anyone; the powerful rescuing act of God persuades both Jew and Gentile alike. Herein lies the secret of the power of the Gospel; there is no good news in it until the righteousness of God is revealed. The dynamic of the gospel is the revelation of 1God’s faith as the only valid basis for our belief. The Prophets wrote in advance about the fact that God believes that righteousness reveals the life of our design. “Righteousness by his (God’s) faith defines life.” (In David's dramatic, prophetic account of the crucifixion in Psalm 22, he concludes with verse 27, "All the ends of the earth shall remember and return to the Lord; and all the families of the nations shall worship before him." And in verse 31, "...they shall declare his righteousness to a people that shall yet be born; that he has done it." The gospel is the revelation of the righteousness of God; it unveils how the Father, Son and Spirit succeeded to put mankind right with themselves. It is about what God did right, not what Adam did wrong. The good news reveals how God’s righteousness rescued the life of our design and redeemed our innocence. Mankind’s futile efforts to justify themselves, have failed them miserably. [Rom 7] The Good News shifts the emphasis away from our failure and condemnation to highlight what it was that God accomplished in Jesus Christ on humanity’s behalf. “Look away [from the law of works] unto Jesus; he is the 1Author and finisher of faith.” [Hebrews 12:2]. It is God’s faith to begin with; it is 1from faith to faith, and not our good or bad behavior; we are not defined by our performance or circumstances. The Greek word translated “from” is the Preposition, 1ek, which always denotes source or origin. The language of the old written code was, “Do in order to become. The language of the new is, “Be, because of what was done.” Instead of do, do, do, it’s done, done, done. Paul refers here to Habakkuk 2:4, “The just shall live by his [God’s] faith.” Habakkuk sees a complete new basis to mankind’s standing Romans 1:15-17 Mirror
We moved right next door to Don. (San Diego has nanny lots with 2 houses) He was in the back house and Suzanne (best friend since 8th grade) we rented the front house. History after that. What was the first thing I said to Don? Hi, I'm you new neighbor. What is the first favor I asked of him? Would you change our back porch light bulb, please!
