The Captain Of Their Salvation

There are many different occasions in which the Bible records details of our Savior.  Each of those references is worthy of our attention and study.  After all, Christians should be striving to be more like Jesus on a regular basis.  The writer of Hebrews stated, “But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower

The House That the LORD Built

Long ago, the Psalmist wrote, “Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain” (Psm. 127:1). The great lesson is that with the LORD there is strength and security. Away from the LORD, there is vanity. This truth was

No Atheists on Judgment Day

It was not that long ago that atheism was only marginally embraced.  Now it seems that more and more people are adopting the view that God is not real.  Seemingly educated individuals have forsaken logic and evidence to embrace man’s theories.  Instead of accepting the truth that God exists, some have become militant-like in their

He Did It Anyway

It is incredibly disappointing to know that so many people are either ignorant, or have been taught incorrectly about the death of Jesus.  Believe it or not, you might even encounter some who claim that Jesus did not realize why He came to Earth.  Let me state, before I go any further, that Jesus knew

The King

Throughout history, many societies have been ruled by a king.  This type of government is known as a monarchy.  Sometimes the monarch shares rule with others such as a queen or a legislative body.  Then there are times when the king has complete rule and power.  When this scenario exists, it is referred to as

Why Should I Believe The Bible?

Sadly, we currently live in a time when many do not believe that the Bible should be trusted as the Word of God.  Due to such things as secularism, modernism, and atheism, some have been deceived into thinking that the Bible is merely a work of man.  While I agree that men were used in

The Lamb’s Book Of Life

I have to admit, it would have been amazing to be able to perform miraculous deeds in the first century.  In particular, what a great feeling it would have been to be able to take a sick individual and heal him of his sickness.  That is exactly what seventy individuals were allowed to do.  Luke

Making An Apostle Marvel

Have you ever been astonished when you learned something?  Did you struggle with what to say?  Maybe it was due to joy because the news was so wonderful.  Perhaps the news was so sad that you were left deflated.  The apostle Paul had a similar occurrence during his lifetime.  After much good had been accomplished

Jesus Will Return

Almost two thousand years ago, Jesus left this Earth and ascended back to Heaven.  The record of such is recorded in the book of Acts.  “And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight” (Acts 1:9).  It was at that time

There Is No Fear Of God Before Their Eyes

In the early chapters of the book of Romans, the apostle Paul went about establishing that both Jew and Gentile had sinned.  As such, each was guilty in the sight of God.  He wrote, “What then?  are we better than they?  No, in no wise:  for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that
