JESUS IS A LAMB AND A LIONAs a lamb, Christ was our sin offering.As a lamb, He was born in a place where lambs were born.As a lamb, he was laid in a stone feeding trough, where sheep ate.And as a lamb, He visited by shepherds who were in the fields watching sheep who would one day be offered as sacrifices. As a lamb, He depended on His parents who were His assigned shepherds, but like a lion, the lamb boldly reasoned with theologians at 12 years of age. As a lamb, He was tempted in the wilderness but like a lion, God’s lamb overcame the tempter with His voice, “Get behind me satan!”As a lamb, He was sleeping during a storm but like a lion the lamb of God stood up and said, “Peace be still.”As a lamb, He was beaten with a whip, but like a lion he made a whip and used it to cleanse the temple.As a lamb, He died as our sacrifice but like a lion, He conquered death. As a lamb, He wept at Lazarus’ tomb but like a lion He roared, “Come forth!”As a lamb, He allowed people to touch Him, but like a lion He boldly cast out demons. As a lamb, He was led to the slaughter for us but like a lion, the lamb of God arose from the dead. He came as a lamb, slain from the world’s foundation, but He’s coming back as the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. Those messianic promises that were not yet fulfilled,He will fulfill as the Lion of Judah.Sam Storms says, “The Lion in whom we find unimpeachable authority is also the Lamb who embodies humility and meekness in the highest degree.”He continues, “The Lion who wields power and strength that none can resist is also the Lamb who walked the earth in weakness and suffering, resisting none.”The same Jesus!He who laid down all His rights, has now received all authority. This lion-like Lamb is also the lamb-like Lion, most worthy of our best praise and selfless worship, undying devotion and sacrificial service. Jesus is a Lamb and a Lion.Alan LattaAugust 17, 2025

JAMES 5 19 Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, 20 let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.With this being our third attempt, at understanding and applying James’ closing paragraph, we hope to greatly encourage anyone who is being - or has ever been - tempted to wander away from the truth; due to suffering, disappointments, offenses, confusing mis-understandings, and/or disillusioning experiences and terrible trials. In the first two chapters of Job, one can read about a man who lost almost everything; including most of his possessions and servants, all ten of his children and the respect of his wife; as well as his health and so called friendships; with wise guys who decided to blast him – after sitting in silence for 7 days - while he was at his lowest; not to mention his brothers, sisters, & acquaintances who stayed away.Like those friends, some folks wrestle with whether or not Mr. Job had anything to do with his problems, or were they all from satan, or was God Himself responsible; Who had given permission for him to be attacked. It seems, some can not simply rest with what the Bible story clearly says; so they will quickly jump to chapter 42; where the Lord abundantly redeems and doubly restores all the man’s losses. In doing so, one risks missing a life changing truth they may need one day; in order to overcome temptations to wander from the truth.During his friends’ accusations, Job often lamented his life’s con-dition while trying to defend his integrity. In Chapter 19, during one of his laments, this hurting man received a prophetic revelation, that - for centuries - has inspired many songs; which today I believe can become a weapon in the heart and mouth of anyone who finds himself or herself in the middle of troubles of any kind; because it can be God’s Word for everyone suffering great trials, tough circumstances or the consequences of reaping what they’ve sown.For those who have ever been or are currently being tempted to wander away from the truth because of hard personal times; self inflicted or not, this word’s for you. Let’s all read Job 19:14-27. JOB 19 14 “My relatives have failed,and my close friends have forgotten me.15 Those who dwell in my house, and my maidservants, count me as a stranger;I am an alien in their sight.16 I call my servant, but he gives no answer;I beg him with my mouth.17 My breath is offensive to my wife,and I am repulsive to the children of my own body.18 Even young children despise me;I arise, and they speak against me.19 All my close friends abhor me,and those whom I love have turned against me. 20 My bone clings to my skin and to my flesh,and I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.21 “Have pity on me, have pity on me, O you my friends,for the hand of God has struck me!22 Why do you persecute me as God does,and are not satisfied with my flesh? 23 “Oh, that my words were written!Oh, that they were inscribed in a book!24 That they were engraved on a rockwith an iron pen and lead, forever!25 For I know that my Redeemer lives,and He shall stand at last on the earth;26 And after my skin is destroyed, this I know,that in my flesh I shall see God,27 Whom I shall see for myself,and my eyes shall behold, and not another.How my heart yearns within me!.....”New King James Version®.

While we are living in a day when many so called Christians are abandoning the truth, some are going on to denounce the authority of Christ and the Holy Bible. While we think it would be impossible for us to go down this path, many seem to be making their feelings, thoughts and opinions as important as the Scriptures. If you don’t think these words are very true, just watch for the next time someone hurts our feelings and see if we become resistant to the commands of The Lord; Who told us to love one another as He has loved us. Before launching out into today’s teaching - called Truth About Wandering From Truth, Part 2 - let’s read what James wrote in the last sentence of his letter to believers.
We are living in a day when many so called Christians are abandoning the truth of their faith and doing what they call deconstruction. Some are going on to denounce the exclusivity of Christ and His claims; Who has declared Himself to be the way, the truth, the life, the resurrection, and the only way to God the Father. Like myself, you may know someone(s) going down this trail that - for numerous folks - never seems to stop the embracing of increasing error(s); such as minimizing the Bible totally or in large and small pieces; by denouncing the Old Testament, silencing Paul, treating the Words of Jesus like a cafeteria, labeling disliked passages as clobber verses and promoting watered down, or hyped, para-phrases; as though they were translations. This slippery slope can lead to equating the Quran, the polytheistic Hindu books and the thoughts of a dead man named Budda, with the Holy Scriptures. While one may think it would be impossible for him or her to go this route, many of our peers seem to be making their feelings, thoughts and opinions as important as the Holy Bible. If you don’t think these words are correct for us just watch out next someone hurts our feelings and see how we can become resistant to the commands of The Lord; Who has told us to love one another as He has loved us. While blaming our wanting to just “follow the Spirit” as reason enough for living independently and not studying the written eternal inspired truths of God’s Word, we risk leaving behind His foundational principles and life’s standards for judging right & wrong. Before launching out into today’s teaching - called The Truth About Wandering From The Truth - let’s slowly read what Jesus’ brother James wrote in the last paragraph of his letter to us as believers.

This slippery slope can lead to equating the Quran, the polytheistic Hindu books and the thoughts of a dead man named Budda, with the Holy Scriptures. While one may think it would be impossible for him or her to go this route, many of our peers seem to be making their feelings, thoughts and opinions as important as the Holy Bible. If you don’t think these words are correct for us just watch out next someone hurts our feelings and see how we can become resistant to the commands of The Lord; Who has told us to love one another as He has loved us. While blaming our wanting to just “follow the Spirit” as reason enough for living independently and not studying the written eternal inspired truths of God’s Word, we risk leaving behind His foundational principles and life’s standards for judging right & wrong. Before launching out into today’s teaching - called The Truth About Wandering From The Truth - let’s slowly read what Jesus’ brother James wrote in the last paragraph of his letter to us as believers.
We hope these encouraging messages - communicated by Pastor Alan Latta - inspire you to know the Lord Jesus and to make Him known. GENERATIONS CHURCH, 5718 Highway 377, Granbury, TX 76049 - 817/326-5378 - info@generationspeople.org

For the sake of those most innocent, we should all be unapologetically pro-life, not just pro-birth, from the womb to the tomb. Therefore, because the opportunities to help those in need will now be increasing more than ever before, may we all be ready to lay down our lives for the cause of serving and strengthening the lives of single mothers and their babies, as well as those ministries already serving them.

Many failed attempts have been made to dodge or dilute the truth of Hebrews 10:26-31; which is often done by using other verses about our security as believers; as they can appear on the surface to be contradictory. However, in doing so, this approach ignores the facts that the context - both preceding and following - clearly addresses the entire text of Hebrews 10 to believers.
In this segment from a larger sermon, Pastor Alan Latta teaches these verses - Hebrews 10:26-31 - must be understood in context and that this alleged dichotomy is like one of the many paradoxes* in God's created world; thus bringing balance to our understanding of His eternal truth; which proclaims that Jesus Christ saves from both the penalty and the power of sin. While we can be secure as believers, to live in continual sin is not a good thing; because no liars, thieves, and fornicators - etcetera , etcetera- are going to be in Heaven.
For more understanding of Hebrews 10:26-31, read - in context - the following scriptures that were written for believers: 1 Corinthians 6:8-11; Galatians 5:19-21; Ephesians 5:1-7 and Revelation 21:5-8. If anyone teaches otherwise, let's stop listening to them, no matter how popular they may be, and may we all take all the words of Hebrews 10 more seriously.
- an example of a paradox "in God's created world" is direct current electricity, having both positive and negative characteristics. Another paradox is the earth's polar opposites, north and south; etcetera. Opposites bring balance, like servant-leaders, a husband and wife, a mother and father, etcetera, etc.
