Christian Magazine Spirit of the Plains - South Dakota - Nebraske

Spirit of the Plains Magazine is a Christian magazine
for the Northern Plains: North and South Dakota,
Nebraska, Iowa, and Minnesota.

The “Spirit” isn't about religion - it's about Jesus
Christ and Him crucified. As we share these God
stories with you, our hope is that you will be
encouraged by them, that they touch your heart, mind
and soul. There isn't a lot of theology here. Our focus
is on Scripture, the Bible – God's Word and revelation
of His Word through His deeds in and through
people's lives and situations.

Sin is our downfall. Jesus is our life. We are invited to
join Jesus' family. Have you joined? He’s waiting. The
Old Testament and New Testament are road maps to
eternal life through Jesus. Jesus said, in John 14:6, “I
am the way, the truth and the life.” You can believe,
trust in Him, and walk with Him. Come along as we
share about prayer, the church, our Savior, and much
more.

There will be the God stories that we spoke of earlier.
There will also be articles for children to read and
discuss with mom and dad. We just added “Grandpa
Dan's Adventures” to the children's section, Along
with devotions and inspirational writings, you’ll find
information about up coming Christian events, in
churches and surrounding communties.

Magazine,” give us a call or email us.

What is the Purpose of the Moral
Law or the Ten Commandments?

"What shall we say then?
Is the law sin? Certainly not!
On the contrary, I would not have
known sin except through the law."
Romans 7:7

The purpose of the moral law - Ten
Commanments - is to reveal man's
sinfulness and need for salvation.
Salvation is granted to those who place
their faith in the risen Jesus Christ and
repent of their sins. In Galatians 3:24,
Paul tells us the the law is the tutor to
bring us to Christ.

The great preacher John Wesley said
we need to preach 90% law and 10%
grace. Ray Comfort, in his presentation,
"Hell's Best Kept Secret," explains that
when we use the moral law in our
churches and evangelism efforts, we
create converts who:
-- understand the reason for God's
wrath
-- understand God's grace and mercy
-- understand their sinful condition
-- have gratitude to God for salvation
-- understand they don't deserve the
hope of heaven based on their own
merit
-- have gratitude that creates zeal for
sharing the moral law with the lost
