Whiter than Snow!
Whiter Than Snow: Though Your Sins Were as Scarlet… On a quiet snow day, Scripture gives us a powerful picture of forgiveness. Drawing from Isaiah 1:18, Psalm 51:7, and 1 John 1:9, this article reflects on God’s invitation to sinners and the cleansing grace He provides through Jesus Christ. Isaiah shows us God’s perspective — honest about sin, yet full of mercy. Psalm 51 reveals the humble response of a repentant heart that asks to be washed. Together, they point us to the gospel, where Christ takes the stain of our sin and gives us His righteousness. This reflection reminds readers that forgiveness is not something we earn, manage, or deserve. It is something God does. Like fresh snow covering the ground, God’s grace cleanses completely, offering hope, rest, and a new beginning to all who come to Him.

10 Benefits of Reading Your Bible Every Day in the New Year
10 Benefits of Reading Your Bible Every Day in the New Year
Reading the Bible every day is one of the most transformative habits a Christian can cultivate. Scripture is God’s living Word, given to deepen our relationship with Him, guide our decisions, strengthen our faith, and renew our minds. Daily Bible reading equips believers for spiritual battles, nourishes the soul, and reminds us of God’s constant presence and faithfulness.
As we enter a new year, consistent time in God’s Word helps establish spiritual stability in a distracted world. Through Scripture, believers grow in obedience, Christlikeness, and wisdom, becoming better prepared to encourage others and live with purpose. Whether you are beginning this habit for the first time or returning to it, daily Bible reading is not merely a discipline – it is a lifeline for spiritual growth and enduring hope.

Will Jesus Christ Return in 2026? Why Is This Significant?
Will Jesus Christ Return in 2026? Why Is This Significant?
As one year ends and another begins, many Christians quietly ask a familiar question: Will Jesus Christ return in 2026? Scripture gives a careful answer. Possibly—but no one can say for certain. Jesus Himself taught that no one knows the day or hour of His return except the Father. While predictions and viral claims come and go, the Bible is clear on one thing: Jesus will return, and His return is always imminent.
This matters deeply for how believers live today. The nearness of Christ’s return calls Christians to holiness, faithfulness, watchfulness, and hope. It shapes how we resist sin, grow in Christlikeness, commit to the local church, share the gospel, and encourage one another in suffering. Scripture repeatedly urges believers to live ready, serve faithfully, pray expectantly, and wait patiently—because the night is nearly over and the day is at hand.
Whether Jesus returns in 2026 or sooner, His promised coming gives urgency and meaning to every moment. The question is not simply when He will return, but whether we are living now in light of that glorious certainty.
