James 1:2-3, “2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.” James wrote that our trials equal God’s pure joy. How can this be true? How are we supposed to consider facing various trials and hardships in life as…

Colossians 3:3, “For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.” The moment you accepted Jesus into your life two things instantly occurred. First, there was a funeral. Then, there was a rebirth. The funeral was for the death of your old life, because of the sinful nature that resided in your…
