Behold, I Thought

One of the duties of a prophet was to be a sort of “spokesperson for God”. To further clarify, prophets would receive revelation from God, and then the prophets would tell such to people. This is important to understand for the remainder of this article. The reason is that we will be introduced to a

How Often Do You Look? Part Two

If a person can be convinced to look into “the perfect law of liberty”, then there comes the importance of continuing “therein”. It is very simple. It is one thing to gain knowledge, but it is another thing entirely to put that knowledge to work. I might know what is the right thing to do,

Careful And Troubled About Many Things

I imagine that most of us have had company come to visit us at some time. That occasion probably brought about the desire to clean and “spruce up” our homes. There is nothing wrong with having a clean home, but we should not let the trivial matters override the main focus. We are going to

Doing Things God’s Way

The book of Judges details certain events and individuals in the history of the Israelite people. One of those individuals is the man, Gideon. One of those events is the defeat of the Midianites.

Preach The Word

As difficult as it might be to admit, we now live in a time period when many people do not want the truth. To understand what I mean by that, we need to make sure that we correctly identify the truth. Divine defining is far better than earthly endeavors when it comes to such. Jesus

Increasing In The Knowledge

Answering honestly, when was the last time that you did an in depth study of the Scriptures? I am not asking when was the last time you read a verse or two. Instead, when was the last time that you dug deep to gain a better understanding of God and His Word. Did you know

Wells Without Water

In different parts of the Bible, God is very plain and firm when it comes to the attitudes and behaviors of those that live sinful lifestyles. Often times, along with the descriptions of their transgressions, there is a foretelling of the punishment that awaits those that will not repent. One of those places of Scripture

Another Serving of ‘Let Us’

It was not very long ago that I wrote an article titled “Did You Eat Your ‘Let Us’”. The premise was that the “eating” of “let us” was a play on words. Instead of eating real lettuce, the idea was to introduce some things that a Christian should include in his life. The main texts
