When Jesus Arose 5/1 Thursday Thoughts

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: When Jesus Arose 5/1 Thursday Thoughts When Jesus arose from the dead, He arose, not only because He had put sin away, but also because He had, as a substitute, conquered Satan. It was as though we, individually, had been the conquerors, just as though we had been there in that dark region and conquered Satan, stripped him of his authority and risen from the dead. Then Christ rose from the dead and Redemption became a settled fact, a closed issue. -- E.W. Kenyon

The Victory of the Resurrection 4/29 Wednesday Wisdom

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: The Victory of the Resurrection 4/30 Wednesday Wisdom On this side of the cross is the victory of His resurrection, the marvel of all victories, the victory over death by which He took death captive. A living man, Himself, He came forth the Conqueror of death itself, having put all things under His feet. What an ascent into triumph! What a change in His consciousness! What a distinction between the Redeemer and the redeemed! No longer subject to death, but triumphing over it. No longer subject to humiliation, but now becoming the exalted One, bless God. -- John G. Lake

The Other Side of the Cross 4/29 Tuesday Truth

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: The Other Side of the Cross 4/29 Tuesday Truth On this side of the cross we see all the marvel of opposites to what we see in the Christ on the other side of the cross. On the other side of the cross we see a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief, bearing our sicknesses, carrying our sorrows. He had nowhere to lay his head. Poverty was one of His characteristics. Nobody ever stops to think, or rarely so, that He bore His poverty, and what for? "That through His poverty we might be made rich." (2 Cor. 8:9) He bore our sorrows, what for? That we through His sorrows might be made glad. (See Isa. 35:10, Psalm 30:11) He bore our suffering, for what? That we through His stripes might be healed (Isa. 53:5). He gave His life a sacrifice for sins, for what? That we should know no sin. (Heb. 10:12-18) Then having completed the redemption, or purchasing the redemption, the redemption becomes manifest this side of Calvary. -- John G. Lake

Let the Fire Fall 4/28 Monday Meditation

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: Let the Fire Fall 4/28 Monday Meditation It is up to the Church of Jesus Christ and the ministry of the Son of God to demonstrate that there is a power in the blood of Jesus Christ to save men and heal men unto the uttermost -- not half-healed or half the people healed, but I pray and believe that God's time has come for God's challenge to mankind and that challenge of the Christian Church to the world is to come on, and if it is God, let the fire fall. -- John G. Lake

The Ultimate of the Gospel 4/24 Thursday Thoughts

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: The Ultimate of the Gospel 4/24 Thursday Thoughts This startles some people. But the ultimate of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and the ultimate of the redemption of the Son of God, is to reproduce and make every man who is bound by sin and held by sensousness and enslaved by the flesh, like Himself in deed and in truth -- sons of God. -- John G. Lake.
