A Man Of Sorrows – Part One

The prophet Isaiah has been referred to as the Messianic prophet. The reason for such is that Isaiah goes into great detail about the Messiah, Jesus. While Isaiah never refers to Jesus by name, it is extremely apparent to a studied Bible student that Isaiah wrote of the Christ. In Isaiah chapter fifty-three, Isaiah revealed

The Coming Of The Lord

I cannot tell you how many times that I have either read or heard of someone claiming to know when the Lord is coming back. Many religious people have followed teachers that predicted certain dates, but all have been wrong. Most of the time, problems come from misunderstanding certain Scriptures. In particular, a lot of

Jesus-Our High Priest

It is widely known that Jesus is the Savior of mankind. Likewise, many individuals recognize that Jesus is “…the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords” (1 Tim. 6:15). However, not as many may know that Jesus is also the High Priest under the New Covenant. In order for us

The Birth Of Jesus

As many have experienced, there is nothing quite like the birth of a child. For many reasons it is a joyous occasion. With that being stated, there is one particular birth that above all others gave more reasons to rejoice. That was the birth of Jesus, the Christ. We are privileged to have the event

Son Of Man And Son Of God

When a reader starts studying the New Testament, He will eventually learn that Jesus was known by different descriptive terms. One of which is the word Christ. That is simply a reference to Jesus being the anointed One of God. Then there are other terms like “the good shepherd”, “the door”, “the way”, “the truth”,

The Resurrection

The truth of Christianity hinges upon the legitimacy of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. If Jesus did not come out of the tomb triumphantly, then Christianity would be one of the biggest frauds in the history of mankind. However, the Word of God accurately states the following: “Now upon the first day of the week,

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

A Wall Broken Down

One of the defining moments of the 1980’s was when President Ronald Reagan implored Mikhail Gorbachev to tear down the Berlin Wall. It was seen as an opportunity for freedom to flourish in Germany. After the end of WWII, the wall separated communist East Germany from the more democratic West Germany. For years, individuals longed

The Immortal Soul

When addressing a question about marriage and the resurrection, our Lord took the time to explain the immortality of the soul. “Sadducees, which deny that there is any resurrection…” had presented a scenario that they apparently thought was sufficient to cause Jesus trouble (Luke 20:27). The situation was such that a woman had been married seven times. All

No Prophet Is Accepted In His Own Country

Early in the earthly ministry of Jesus, the Lord addressed a problem that hindered some from accepting the truth. After teaching in Galilee, the Bible records, “And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for
