Solomon said, “Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked? In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider: God also hath set the one over against the other, to the end that man should find nothing after him.” Ecclesiastes 7:13-14. Wisdom
Paul said, “But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.” What are we, the church doing to preach the gospel to our family, friends, co-workers, and the
The Godhead said, “And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.” 1 Corinthians 13:13. There is “a time to love.” Ecclesiastes 3:8. These things will continue but love includes faith and hope, 1 Corinthians 13:7, but without love, faith and hope are meaningless. Love is greater than
In Genesis 3:13 we find the first question God ever asked a woman. “And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.” This question took place after Eve had eaten of the forbidden fruit and after
As a student of the Bible, I must see all of what the Bible has to say on any subject. The “church” has many designations. Jesus said, “my church,” Matthew 16:18, “my kingdom,” Luke 22:30; John 8:38, “the Kingdom of heaven,” Matthew 16:19, and “the Kingdom of God, John 3:5; Luke 22:16. The apostles
James writes to the “brethren” showing that we are part of God’s family here on earth. Cf. Ephesians 3:15. We become a part of the family of God when we obey the Gospel of Jesus Christ by hearing, Romans 10:17, believing, John 8:24, repenting, Acts 17:30, confessing Christ, Acts 8:37, and by being immersed
Peter wrote, “These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in
“Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil.” Ephesians 4:26, 27. In our daily living the Christian life, we are faced with becoming angry. We work long hours, and then we commute through terrible traffic to our homes in disarray. Even
As one follows Paul on his journey to Rome as a prisoner, they observe many things happening to him. There would be many trials awaiting him while in Rome. One must remember that we are told in Acts 27:22-25 that Paul was comforted by an angel in the storm and was told, “Fear not, Paul;
There has been a discussion on one of the groups of which I am a member about those who are departing from “the faith.” 1 Timothy 4:1.
