The Importance of Self Control
We live today in the world of “self.” Self-help books have their own section in the bookstores. We long to be self-actualized and self-starters. We are admonished to be true to our self. Jesus taught the complete opposite. If we are to be successful Christians we must deny ourselves and serve...

Iron Sharpens Iron
The phrase “iron sharpens iron” is found in Proverbs 27:17, “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” There is mutual benefit in the rubbing of two iron blades together; the edges become sharper, making the knives more efficient. Let's take a look a little deeper into what the Bible…

Love In Action
The disciple John is recognized fondly among Bible readers as the apostle that Jesus loved. He dedicated vast portions of his writing to the theme of Christlike love. John asserts that believers can understand genuine love by observing Christ’s example. Let's take a look at an example of that…

The Power of Gratitude
Most of us know thanksgiving is a good practice. But do we know just how good? The Bible shows the great power of gratitude. Thankfulness should be a way of life for us, naturally flowing from our hearts and mouths. Digging into the Scriptures a little more deeply, we understand why we should be...

The Wisdom of Solomon
The life of Solomon had three distinct stages. The first stage of Solomon's life is the early years of his reign. The second stage is a sad stage of his life. It's when he went astray from the way of the Lord. And the final stage is when he is an old man and once again he returns to the ways of…

The Scriptures A Safeguard
The truth and the glory of God are inseparable. It is impossible for us to honor God unless we do so in truth. God has given us His word that we may become acquainted with its teachings and know for ourselves what He requires of us. Let's take a look. Also available on Google Podcast, Spotify,...

God's Call To Mission
As Christians we must individually and collectively, understand our special role as ambassadors of God’s kingdom and messengers of the soon return of Jesus Christ. We are called to service, a service that grows out of our love and gratitude for what God has done for us. This love creates in us a...

God's Message About Sin
When you think of the Old Testament book of Isaiah, your first thoughts may be, his marvelous prophecies of the Messiah and the future glory of God's kingdom. Indeed, that is a prevailing theme in the prophecy of Isaiah. God had given Isaiah the responsibility of telling the people of their sin....

The 70 Week Prophecy Proves Jesus Is Messiah
The 70-week prophecy of Daniel 9 predicted the coming Messiah 500 years before it happened. History was foretold culminating in one of the most important events in earth’s history: Jesus’ sacrifice for us on the cross. This prophecy, spanning 490 years of time, indicated when Jesus would begin…

Count the Cost
In Luke 14 Jesus lays out the terms of discipleship. The people following Jesus desired the benefits of what He did rather than an understanding of who He was. They loved His gifts, not the life He was calling them to. So He explained what it takes to be one of His followers. Let's take a look....
-
The Importance of Godly Friends
It’s our nature to be influenced by our surroundings. When we put ourselves in a godly atmosphere with godly people, we are influenced toward godliness. When we put ourselves in an ungodly atmosphere with ungodly people, we are influenced toward ungodliness. Let's take a look at what the Bible…

Characteristics of a Godly Man
Many of you have likely wondered: “What does a Godly man look like today?” There are numerous articles and books written about this topic, as each writer strives to uncover more of this mystery. We are all flawed but by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, men should live by faith and continue...

Living a Holy Life
The Bible tells us many times that we must be holy as God is holy. What does that mean and how can we accomplish that? Let's take a look.

Living Wisely
In Ephesians chapter 5 Paul contrasts what pagans and believers valued. Paul urges the believers in Ephesus to walk in love. This “walking in love” is to be modeled after Christ’s own love for us expressed in His atoning sacrifice. Wisdom is found in rejecting the world and it's values and...
-
Friends in High Places
Jesus is in the heavenly sanctuary—or temple—right now. He is our high priest, presenting His sacrificial death for our forgiveness and cleansing the record of our sins in the sanctuary. He is doing all of this to show us the compassionate and loving heart of God. We also have angels, created by...
-
Guns and the Bible
Nowhere does the Bible forbid Christians from bearing arms. But wisdom and caution are of the utmost importance if one does choose to bear a lethal weapon. Ultimately, the decision to bear arms is a personal choice determined by one's own convictions. Let's take a look what the Bible says. Also...
-
The Eternal Importance of Self Control
Self-control is a crucial trait for Christians to develop in their lives. As followers of Christ, we are called to live a life that reflects the values and character of our Savior. This gift is the ability to control one’s thoughts, actions, and emotions. We as Christians need to develop it if we...
-
Suffer The Little Children
Jesus presented a gentle openness to the children. He touched them with compassion and protected them from others. Children, in their weakness and vulnerability, have much to teach us as adults. As we grow, the hardness of the world often makes our hearts callous. Children have a humble openness…

The Downfall of Complaining
Murmuring is such a common problem in the Bible. The New and Old-Testament Scriptures say a great deal about murmuring and complaining. The harm caused from murmuring is often not realized or regarded by those who are guilty of this sin. Let's take a look. Also available on Google Podcast…

Advocacy for the Christian
All spiritual gifts and skill sets can contribute to the work of advocacy, and God’s power can move our leaders to action. The Bible’s call to speak up for justice doesn’t come with an expiration date. But it does come with encouragement! God’s Word challenges us to keep working for justice — and...

The Jefferson Bible
The Jefferson Bible, a slicing and dicing of the New Testament compiled by Thomas Jefferson in 1803. Jefferson rearranged the text of the Gospels into an account of the life and ministry of Jesus that eschews mention of any supernatural or miraculous elements. He clipped from two King James…

God Can Use Any Personality
Personality describes the unique patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that distinguish a person from others. A product of both biology and environment, it remains fairly consistent throughout life. Peter had a very fiery personality. Jesus called him and his brother the sons of thunder....
-
The Two Laws of the Bible
The Bible presents two laws: one changeless and eternal, the other provisional and temporary. One presents the duty of man to God and to his fellow men, the other was given because of man’s disobedience to God’s requirements. Let's take a look. Also available on Google Podcast, Spotify, Amazon...
-
We Must Work Together With God
The Bible presents several different resources to aid us in our effort to overcome sin. With God’s help, and by following the principles of His Word, we can progressively overcome sin and become more and more like Christ. Sometimes victory over sin comes quickly. Other times, victory comes more...

Christian Men Need a Traditional Wife
Godliness is often in opposition of what secular society says a woman should aspire to. However, as women of God their first concern must always be what pleases God. If you are a single, Christian man you should seek a traditional woman as your helpmeet. Let's take a look. Also available on…

Work Is A Blessing
We should always acknowledge that work is a gift from God, as is our ability to be happy in it. The Bible makes it clear that work matters to God. No matter what your profession or occupation – whether you’re a homemaker, a bus driver, an artist or an engineer – God cares about your work. Let's...
-
Fire and Rain
The Bible has some wonderful imagery. Today I would like to look at a couple of examples of how fire and rain are used. The most famous connection of the two happens with judgment. God used water for judgment in the past and will use fire in the future. Also, God used fire to represent the Holy...
-
Sanctified Imagination
From beginning to end, the Bible calls us to adopt a sanctified imagination that helps us look beyond our own experience. When the biblical writers call us to faith, they are calling us to reject this view of the world and, instead, foster an active imagination that can see what God sees. Let's...
-
Understanding Dreams and Visions
Dreams can sometimes fascinate believers. From the visions Daniel experienced in the Old Testament to Peter’s dream about clean and unclean animals it seems as though dreams lace almost all the books of Scripture. What are some examples of dreams throughout Scripture? What does the Bible have to...
-
The Battle Within
The New Testament speaks often about the conflict between the flesh and the spirit. As believers in Jesus Christ, we constantly clash between our new spiritual nature and the flesh. Once the spirit of a person has been raised to life by the Spirit of God, the old desires of the flesh do not...
-
Let God Cook
As defined by Urban Dictionary, "let him cook" means "let him do his thing," or to give someone space to hone their craft. God was cooking when He crafted the Holy Bible. Despite the opposition of devil and man, God’s Word remains pure, inspired, and inerrant. How do we know that heretics have...
-
Don't Compromise Your Faith
The world is always going to be a distraction for the Christian. We are called to be faithful and firm in our beliefs. The world doesn't care about those beliefs and increasingly Christians and Christian churches are allowing the world to take a foothold. If we are to stay on the straight and...

Evidence For Noah's Flood
There is a great divide between two major systems of belief on the biblical flood in the days of Noah. There are those who say it is either a purely mythological event or else possibly a local or regional flood. Then there are those who accept the Biblical record of the flood as a literal record…

The Old and New
The Bible is incomplete without the Old Testament. Both the Old and New Testaments make up the Word of God. The New Testament was never given to replace the Old Testament but rather to complete its story. Genesis 3:14-19 records how a curse came upon humanity because of sin. Revelation 22:3...
-
Christ Our Passover Lamb
The Passover was instituted by God to protect the Israelites from the final plague, the death of the firstborn. A lamb without defect was killed and its blood was sprinkled on the doorposts and lintel of the house, as a sign for God to “pass over” them, sparing the firstborn of that house. Today,...
-
Gender Dysphoria and the Bible
The chasm between the Biblical view of sexuality and the secular view grows wider every day. Social media and the entertainment industry now celebrate “gender fluidity” as a more enlightened way of thinking than the Biblical view. The word “dysphoria” is a clinical term for unease or...

Finding Christ in Easter
The holiday of Easter, much like Christmas, has roots in both Christianity and ancient pagan culture. Though it is mostly considered a religious holiday, many of our modern traditions hail from Easter's pagan roots. The Easter traditions we enjoy today come from a blend of Christian themes and...
-
Fidelity and the Christian
The word “fidelity” is not often used today. We often hear of infidelity, especially in reference to a person being unfaithful to his or her spouse. The Bible speaks of faithfulness not only in marriage but also in our commitment to Jesus as our personal Savior. Let's take a look at what the…

Jesus and the Sanctuary
You probably know that on the summit of Mt. Sinai, God gave Moses the Ten Commandments. At the same time, the Lord gave Moses blueprints for the sanctuary. A unique temple that represented God’s dwelling place among His people. Its overall design and services showed this nation the plan of...

Is Homosexuality a Sin?
God created the ideal way of living for His people. He had a perfect plan and presented it to us in the book of Genesis. There is a lot of debate in the Christian world where homosexuality falls into that plan. Let's take a look at what the Bible says about it. Also available on Google Podcast,...

Are Women Pastors Biblical?
There is perhaps no more hotly debated issue in the church today than that of women serving as pastors. In a world where morals are more often determined by popularity or political correctness than by the simple truth we have to be ruled by a thus sayeth the Lord. The question of women’s roles in...

Warnings For Today
Discussing the time near His return to earth, Jesus declared, “And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and...

Lessons From Pilgrim's Progress
Outside of the Bible, I believe Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan is one of the most important book that most Christians today have never read. A religious allegory published in two parts in 1678 and 1684 is the work is a symbolic vision of the good man's pilgrimage through life. At one time…

Love and Obedience
God sees everything we do, hears everything we say, and He really does care about how we treat His law. While the Lord offers forgiveness for our sins, it doesn’t mean there aren’t consequences for breaking God’s law. Love and obedience go hand in hand in God's kingdom. Let's take a look. Also...

Night is Coming
The Gospel of John records a remarkable event, as Jesus heals a man who had been born blind. In John’s retelling, one of the statements Jesus makes is that “we must work the works of Him who sent Me as long as it is day; night is coming when no one can work” (John 9:4). Let's look at the context...

Laodicean Church
The seven churches of the Revelation do not represent simply seven historical, local churches in Asia Minor which received their names from the towns in which they were located. I believe that these letters to the seven churches are applicable to seven great periods in the history of the…

The Rich Man and Lazarus
Much argument has taken place over whether the words of Jesus in Luke 16:19-31 were intended to be understood literally or as a parable. The story of the Rich Man and Lazarus has another meaning that I would like to unlock. Let's take a look. Also available on Google Podcast, Spotify, Amazon...

Seasons of the Bible
Even though January 1st is celebrated as the beginning of the year all over the world, as Christians, we need to consider that the Biblical New Year is far more important to us, than a day that was picked by the Romans. Let's look at the Biblical New Year time and how the seasons of the Bible...

The Importance of Baptism
Christian baptism is one of two ordinances that Jesus instituted for the church. Just before His ascension, Jesus said, “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you....

The Sins of the Exodus
God used Moses as His vessel to free the Israelites from bondage. As they travelled from Egypt to the promised land they witnessed many miracles and the power of God. These miracles however, didn't stop the people of God from committing horrific sins. Let's take a look at the 5 sins of the…
