Many try to accept Jesus as Savior while rejecting His correction. Others seek His comfort but resist His reign. Some long for the crown but ignore the cross.
But Psalm 22, Psalm 23, and Psalm 24 do not present three options. They reveal one unified Christ.
❓What if your Jesus only suffers, but never rules?
❓What if you follow the Shepherd but never meet the King?
❓What if your gospel leaves you forgiven but unchanged?
📖 In this teaching, we explore:
Psalm 22: The Suffering Savior
Psalm 23: The Guiding Shepherd
Psalm 24: The Reigning King
🎯 The cross redeems. The crook guides. The crown rules.
You must take the whole Christ. No other Christ will do.

Take a listen to this one. There will definitely be a live show about the topic for free will and foreknowledge.
Life is full of signals that reveal the truth—if we are willing to see them. Paul’s command to “walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise” is about more than being cautious. It is about awareness.
What if the presence of one marker told you the whole situation was already decided?
What if your awareness—or your ignorance—determined whether you stood or fell?
What if your steps were guided by careful eyes instead of careless assumptions?
The officer in the room proves the backup outside.
The army that sees the enemy wins before the first clash.
The man who knows of the landmine walks carefully across his own yard.
Circumspection is wisdom. Awareness makes the difference. The light of God’s word reveals what belongs to the darkness and what belongs to Him. The wise walk with eyes open.

Churches say they want courage, clarity, and sound doctrine.
But when a man like Paul shows up, most would never hire him — or they’d run him out.
What if the Apostle Paul sent in a résumé today?
What if a search committee measured him against 2 Timothy 2:24–25?
What if the very words he wrote by inspiration were turned against him?
• A record of “striving” in letters and disputes
• Sharp words called harsh, not gentle
• Rebukes judged impatient and unmeek
• Scars of endurance mistaken for failure
Everybody says they want courage, clarity, sound doctrine, the truth, until it shows up. And then they do not want it at all.

People make big claims every day. Some claims are so impressive that we want to believe them. Love believes all things, but love is not gullible. Love does not require us to turn off our brains or accept every story at face value. It is the love of truth that makes us careful with what we accept and share.
Recently I heard a luthier claim to have taught thousands of students from scratch all the way to becoming capable guitarists. Sounds great. But let’s put it to the test with simple math—and then see what you think about it.
If it takes about six months—roughly 25 weekly lessons—for a beginner to reach intermediate level, and if a full-time teacher handles 30 students a week, that is 1,500 lessons in a year. Divide that by 25 lessons per student, and you get 60 intermediate students a year. If you teach full-time for 17 years, you could personally train just over 1,000 people to that level. That is assuming perfect attendance, no dropouts, and a schedule that never falters. Real-world ...
