"I'll rise again!" And that is the difference. Jesus rose from the grave. Because He rose again according to his promise, I can trust that He will be coming again for me. Maranatha! Even so, Lord Jesus, come.

Salvation is a God thing

Here is a devotional thought from the late Dr. Adrian Rogers.

Sidlow Baxter once said, “Your emotions are the shallowest part of your nature. Salvation is the deepest work of God. And He is not going to do His deepest work in the shallowest part.” You may think you know me because you hear my voice or read my words, but you cannot look deep down into my spirit. From the time I gave my heart to Jesus Christ, there has been a stamp of authenticity upon my heart saying, Adrian, you belong to Me. It is not an emotional feeling, because emotions have nothing to do with my salvation. It is also not an intellectual thing because salvation cannot be rationalized. Salvation is a God thing.

Amen, Dr. Rogers.
