"Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them." (Hebrews 7:25)
The Lord Jesus is able to save. No one else can do this. Throughout history there have been great men who have accomplished extraordinary things. Abraham, that great man of faith, founded the nation of Israel. Moses, an equally great man, was used by God to liberate Israel from Egyptian slavery. In American History, great men like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin went though extraordinary measures to secure a new and free nation. Then there were men of renown religious courage and strength who stood for Bible truth; men like John the Baptist, the Apostles, Paul and Silas, Mark and Luke. Then there were men of more modern times like William Tyndale, C.H. Spurgeon, and a host of other strong men who stood for God. But all in all no man is able to save. They maybe able to do many great things, but they cannot do the greatest things: secure the Salvation of mankind; satisfy the just and righteous wrath of God; and reconcile a holy God with sinful man. Only Christ can do this. Mankind in all his glory cannot save one soul from eternal retribution. Only the Lord Jesus Christ can do so. Isaiah 59:1 says this "Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:" Praise God, He is able to save.

I have been traveling in the Philippines for the last two weeks, therefore I am not truly able to update my blog properly. However, I am having a wonderful time serving the Lord here, and I look forward to writing a short update of some of the highlights of the trip. Thank you for your comments and all.
Look forward to updates!
