Hey there! I’m Kira and I’m so glad you could stop by! I am a 17 year old Christian, homeschooled senior in highschool, and welcome to my blog. Here is where I write about my various passions and interests as well as my love for the Gospel and Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. My hope is that you will see Christ in me, and that God be glorified through this little ole blog of mine. May you be encouraged in your visit here, and hopefully you will stop back again soon!

“Salvation is of the Lord.” ~ Jonah 2:9 QUOTE by CHARLES SPURGEON: “Salvation is the work of God. It is He alone who quickens the soul ‘dead in trespasses and sins,’ and it is He also who maintains the soul in its spiritual life. He is both ‘Alpha and Omega.’ ‘Salvation is of the Lord.’ If [...]

How awesome and mind-blowing it is when we pull back from our own little life-bubble, and open our eyes to the surrounding wonders of God’s creation. Sometimes I think we can get so caught up in the day-to-day of our lives, that we can often forget to take time to marvel and praise our God for his amazing [...]

For today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. ~ Luke 2:11 God demonstrated His own love for mankind, by giving his one and only Son, Jesus Christ, to live with us as a man. He died on a cross for our sins, and though [...]

What if someone asked you what the book of Galatians was about? What would you say? Would you know? What about the definition of Justification, would you be able to explain that? Surprisingly, many at a Christian college were asked these same questions and did not know the answers. Just yesterday I listened to some broadcasts at [...]

I just finished today going through the book, “Just Do Something” by Kevin DeYoung. I found it clarified a lot for me in the areas of decision making and finding God’s will for our lives, along with exposing some of the most popular “methods” that people will try to use to find future revelation, supposedly from God. Kevin uses his story as an [...]

Firstly, I’d like to use this post to clarify some of the things I wrote in: Can We Ever Be Perfect?. For those of you who haven’t read it already, if you could head there now and then return here for further reading. I notice that in my post, that while trying to prove my point in [...]

What, or who do you trust in for your salvation? What is it that you rely on to get you to Heaven? “Doing good works” and “being a good person” are popular answers, and those are what I want to discuss in this post. But first, let me start out with a few questions… Have you [...]

Here is a reply from one of my readers regarding my post, Hell’s Best Kept Secret: The Cure: I suppose this is aimed at people who already believe in god and already believe in Jesus and already believe that the Bible is the word of god and not just a collection of myths? I don’t believe I’m a sinner, I don’t [...]

This is a continuation of my other post, “Should We Celebrate Christmas?“ When was the real date of Christ’s birth? Unknown and a mystery? December, or September? I’m not sure where I heard this, but I know it has been said, that Jesus was most likely born in September rather than the assumable date, December 25th. I [...]

Why do we celebrate Christmas? What is Christmas really about? Is it okay for Christians to celebrate this holiday? The reason I am writing this post, is that recently, I have found that a few of my fellow blogging friends , though they are Christians, feel strongly about not celebrating Christmas because of it’s pagan roots among other things. [...]

I found this very interesting by Dr. Adrian Rogers. Please read the quote… “Had Jesus been born of earthly parents, He would have been a sinner as we are sinners. But He was not. Jesus is the sinless Son of God. Since the father gives the bloodline, we inherit our sin nature by Adam and from [...]

What is the Biblical evidence for original sin? Are we born sinners? Is sin even inherited? I recently read a post on another blog on these subjects, and I thought I would do a study on it. I have found many verses and some interesting articles that explain, and answer these questions. Though, please be sure [...]
