In the course of history, few men have been esteemed higher than the man named Abraham. The Bible states that he was called the “Friend of God” (James 2:23). That was due to his great faith and obedience, which can easily be seen by reading, “By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out
Sometimes fighting the good fight of faith can seem like a lonely war. Considering that the “few” are the ones that are saved, that means that the “many” are not on the side of righteousness (Matt. 7:13-14). In other words, Christians are greatly outnumbered by those in the world. Unless one has the proper perspective
I would like to believe that no matter what man does to me, I will not deny that I know Jesus. I imagine that is how Peter must have felt at one time too. However, Jesus knew better. Before His crucifixion, Jesus explained to Simon Peter, “…behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he
I am deeply concerned that some do not understand the dedication that it takes to be a faithful servant of Christ. It is the Lord, Who said, “…If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me” (Luke 9:23). Self-denial is an absolute necessity for
Once an individual obeys the Gospel, he is added by the Lord to His church (Acts 2:47). It is at that point that the man’s life is forever changed. Yes, he enjoys all of the spiritual blessings that are in Christ, but there is more to the life of a child of God (Eph. 1:3).
At different times, I, and others, have prayed to the Father for “doors” to be opened so that good works can be done. Through His providence, God has done just that over the years. However, we need to realize that the same God Who opens those “doors” is the same God Who can shut “doors”
The third chapter of Second Timothy is both revealing and depressing at the same time. Please do not misunderstand me, I am not demeaning any part of the Word of God. I am simply expressing how one can feel when he reads that chapter, and then compares it to the modern-day problems that exist. Let
Words can be very powerful. For instance, what enters your mind when someone says “love”? Likewise, what enters your mind when someone says “hate”? Each of these words can be used to convey different thoughts. If not careful, one might misuse a word, and by so doing, cause many problems. With that in mind, I
It is truly saddening to know that there are so many people bowed down in sorrow and dismay. This sadness is not just found in those in the world, but also it is found amongst members of the body of Christ. While I am not trying to diminish anyone’s situation in life, Christians should be,
The book of Revelation is a great study about the victory that faithful Christians enjoy. In the very first verse, the apostle John made it clear that the book is “signified” (Rev. 1:1).
