IT’S THE GOSPEL

IT’S A GIFT

IT’S IN GOD’S WORD

IT MAKES US RIGHT WITH GOD

IT HELPS ME WHEN I NEED IT

For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
