No More Chances

It is not a matter of if, but when. Eventually, the opportunities to obey the Gospel will end. Peter explained, “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the

I Never Knew You

While approximately two thousand years have past since it was proclaimed, “The Sermon on the Mount” still stands as the master sermon from the Master Preacher. No matter how many times a person reads it, that sermon still resonates as strongly as it ever has. There are so many great parts to it. Whether it

If Peter Could Be Forgiven, Then So Can We

I would guess that many Bible students would think of Peter as a great example of faithfulness and service. However, it is good to be reminded that that great man was just that, a man. That means at times, Peter sinned. That also means that he needed forgiveness. When we accept that he could be

Three Times

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

Christ, Our Life

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

Risen With Christ

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).
