John-A Baptizer

The accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are valuable records of the life of Jesus. However, included in those writings, we also find information about others who were contemporary with Christ. One of those individuals was a man named John. For many people, he is known as “John the Baptist”. It would be just

Teachings To Titus

I can only imagine what it must have been like to witness the apostles preach and perform miracles. They would diligently reveal to others the knowledge that the Holy Spirit revealed unto them (John 14:26; 16:13). On occasion, some of the apostles would write letters to congregations and individuals. In these epistles, the recipients were

What Are We Willing To Lose?

The most important decision that a man can make is whether or not to become a Christian. It truly is a matter of everlasting consequences. If the man decides that he wants to go to Heaven, and thus decides to obey the Gospel, he should understand that there are some things that he may have

A study of the Old Testament will show the reader that God took many opportunities to teach and plead with His people. Prophet after prophet preached the need for the people to repent and live as God commanded. At times, the preaching was well received, and for a period of time, the people started living

Let me ask some serious questions! How do you envision the congregation where you worship in ten years? Do you think that the number of members will be more or less than now? What about young people? Do you think that there will be any youth that are interested in learning and obeying God’s Word?

Paul wrote to the Philippians instructing them, “For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord

Early on in the history of the church, the apostles were quickly met with questions and opposition. Some of that is recorded for us in the book of Acts. When reading chapters three and four of that book, we are allowed to learn of one of the early miracles that Peter performed. The Bible indicates

What Would You Give In Exchange For Your Soul?

While here on Earth, Jesus did not shy from describing what awaited Him. In fact, Jesus explicitly informed His disciples of what was to come. Matthew recorded, “From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests

Walk Ye In Him

The fact that Paul loved the church of Christ is seen throughout his writings. Many times he showed his love and concern by encouraging brethren to behave as Christ desires. Sometimes he was able to visit personally with congregations, while at other times he was unable to do so. That did not stop Paul from

The Will Of The Lord

I do not know how many times it has been claimed that someone just cannot understand the Bible. Often times, this is merely an excuse for a lack of study and work. I readily admit that some parts of the Bible are a deeper study than others, but I absolutely reject the idea that we
