2 Samuel 24:1-25; Jeremiah 8:1-22; Ephesians 2:11-22

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” John 14:6 NKJV

You’ve likely heard the phrase, “If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.” There are many things in life that are not exactly as advertised. However, as believers, we know the gospel is as true as it sounds. Jesus Christ died on the cross to save us from our sins. His free gift of redemption is offered through His grace and love. “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Rom. 6:23). Rejoice in the gospel’s truth! —Annette Baal

Perfect submission, all is at rest;
I in my Saviour am happy and blest;
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love. —Fanny J. Crosby
