David L. Cross: Life and Christianity from a Quadriplegic Perspective

The Road To Curseville

People have somehow come to believe that in order to keep us from traveling down the road to Curseville, God slaps us down with pain and punishment every time we sin. This can be evidenced by the many times we have all heard others jokingly say, "God is going to get you for that!"

United In The Faith

As Christians, it is past time we become united in the faith by entering into the oneness Jesus prayed for in John 17:21. It is time we held onto one another in good times as well as bad. It is time we realized that we need each other.

Leave The Past Behind

To move forward into the future, we must leave the past behind. Unfortunately, failures and disappointments as well as aches and pains from the past will simply not go away. Most of us know what it is like to suffer from them, but too few of us know just what to do about them.

The Good Fight Of Faith

Regardless of how long we have been living by and fighting the good fight of faith, no matter how much we have learned about it, every once in a while we undoubtedly suffer a setback. We may run into some circumstances that just do not turn out the way we expected.

Redeemed

Did you know that as believers we have been redeemed from the curse of grief and sorrow by the blood of Jesus Christ? We do not have to tolerate them any more than we have to put up with sin, sickness or disease.

Glorious Future

All my life I have heard and people told me the reason God saved us was so that when we got to Glory or reached our glorious future, we could spend the rest of eternity loving Him and worshiping Him. However, I simply do not believe that to be completely true.

Claim New Ground For The Kingdom Of God

As believers, we are part of a conquering, Christian army, constantly working to claim new ground for the Kingdom of God. Right? Well, yes, at least that is the way it should be.

Use God’s MO

God uses words to create. Fact is, He used His Word to "frame" the worlds. Want evidence? Simply read through the first chapter of Genesis and count how many times you see the phrase, "God said."

Live The Love Life

DLCross — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 13:27:09 +0000

There is nothing, absolutely nothing, that is more important than learning to love. In fact, how accurately we perfect the love walk will determine how much of the perfect will of God we accomplish.

Increase The Kingdom And Love Always

As Christians, what is our destiny? Simply stated, our destiny is to do God's will in our lives, increase the Kingdom of God and show love always. That word always tends to be a stumbling block for many.
