Vindicated or Rebutted
(SN076) David asked, “Judge me LORD.” That’s a pretty bold ask, especially from someone who had an affair that resulted in a pregnancy, and then to cover it up ordered that the husband of his mistress be sent to his death in battle.
Those Who Never Hear the Gospel
(075) There is no such thing as an atheist but there are those who will never hear about Christ Jesus. What happens to those people when they die?
A Firetruck, A Rescue Boat, and A Helicopter
(074) Don’t ignore God’s relentless pursuit of us and the joy of living for him.
I’m A Hell Bound Good Person
(073) Yes, you can be a good person, doing great things, and still go to hell.
Live It…Don’t Just Say It
(072) You should tell others about Jesus and when necessary, use words
Make Me Rest
(071) Some Scripture is easy to understand, others, not so much. Today we are going to study a command that is actually quite easy to understand. It’s a command that God presents in a straight forward, clear manner. There is no confusion about what we are being told to do. While it’s easy to understand, it’s extremely difficult in today’s day and age to obey.
Lest We Forget - Lesson 7, What Difference Does It Make
(SN070) The choice you make has eternal implications. It’s a ‘hell’ of a gamble.
Lest We Forget - Lesson 6, He’s Alive
(SN069) Unlike all the other religions in the world, Christianity is the only one that worships a living God.
Lest We Forget - Lesson 5, The Forgiveness
(SN068) After making purification for sins. Those five words represent the crux (main point) and the creed (fundamental beliefs) of the entire Bible. Jesus came to pay the price for the sin of all mankind, past, present, future.
Lest We Forget - Lesson 4, The Power
(SN067) Jesus has the Power to give us peace, comfort, and emotional healing. His power also provides strength, boldness, and confidence in our faith.
Lest We Forget - Lesson 3, Jesus is God
(SN066) Jesus is in every way exactly the same as God but in human form.
Lest We Forget - Lesson 2, From the Very Beginning…Jesus
(SN065) Want to have a ‘mind blown’ experience, take a moment and look up at the sky and ask yourself, where does space end. We also look at the Big Bang theory in this lesson.
Lest We Forget - Lesson 1, God Spoke
(SN064) In the Old Testament God spoke both audibly. However, from the time the Holy Spirit was given to believers we hear in our minds and hearts the words from God through Jesus and the Holy Spirit rather than audible messages.
Open Your Mouth or Shut It
(SN063) Proverbs 15:28, The heart of the righteous ponders how to answer, but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.
We could pretty much simply read that verse, drop the mic, and be on our way. However, there’s a bit more to it before you can actually do that consistently.
Milk or Meat, Maturing in Your Faith
(SN062) What you pray for you get. There are some who believe, without exception, that if you ask God for anything he will give it to you. Let’s break that down.
Personalizing Scripture
(SN061) When studying the Bible one of the techniques is to personalize the Scripture. By personalize I mean take the Scripture and turn it into a prayer, a conversation between you and God. Personalizing moves the words from your head to your heart, it transforms words to an experience, and helps you know God at a intimate level.
I Am A Zealot
(SN060) What comes to your mind when you think of a Zealot? Probably negative connotations. But that is not the Biblical view.
Paul’s Mission Statement
(SN059) In Paul’s letter the church in Philippi, he is encouraging them (and us) to live their lives committed to serving God and others. If Paul had penned a mission statement, it may have been pulled directly from this letter.
I Know the Secret (an Expository Study)
(SN058) When studying the Bible there are several approaches you can take. As an example, let’s take an expository look at Philippians 4:12.
Celebrate the Tough Times
(SN057) It doesn't matter what you've done, what bad habits you have, or what pain is in your past, through Christ Jesus' redeeming grace and mercy you can be made good again and be used to his glory.
