  • Summary

  • "Atonement should be all about our hard work and effort to make up for our own mistakes, right?"

    Yet the Bible suggests we can’t earn it at all. In an unexpected twist, Scripture tells us that true atonement is not something we achieve by our actions, but something that is granted freely.
    In Romans 5:8, it says: “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” This verse reminds us that God’s love came to us first, even before we tried to make up for our faults. Instead of us earning forgiveness, Jesus' sacrifice makes it possible as a gift.

    Discover more of these twists in "Holy Contradictions" and get a daily moment of inspiration with less than a minute of your time—guiding you to see faith in new, surprising ways!

    We’re excited to announce that, following the incredible success of our previous season, we’ve launched the next one with another 100 Bible quotes. We understand that some may view irony as the devil’s plaything, but here, it’s a tool to ignite curiosity and deepen our understanding of God’s Word—much like Joseph's story in Genesis 50:20 reminds us of the bigger picture.

    That’s why we’re thrilled to present *"Holy Contradictions: ❤️ Love, 😡 Hate, ✝️ Faith, and 🙏 Forgiveness in the Bible,"* a podcast hosted by Samuel Hollingsworth. In quick, 1-minute episodes, we explore divine contrasts and essential biblical themes like wisdom, justice, and peace, offering fresh insights that challenge and inspire. With new episodes dropping daily, subscribing makes perfect sense so you don’t miss out on anything. Let’s explore, learn, and grow in faith together! 🌟📖
