What Happens When We Die?

I remember a fellow preacher once saying something like this:  “If you don’t see angels after you die, then you’re in trouble”.  Sadly, there is a lot of confusion and misunderstanding about death and what happens after.  Hopefully some of that confusion can be erased by a study of some Scriptures. First of all, what

Psalm One

The book of Psalms is a priceless treasure.  No doubt they were a source of great comfort and knowledge to those in the past.  Thankfully, God has seen fit to preserve these writings for subsequent generations. From the very outset, the Bible student is privileged to glean great spiritual wealth from what we call Psalm

Guilty Of The Blood

When Jesus was taken before Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor acknowledged that Jesus had done nothing worthy of death.  “Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ?  They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.  And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done?  But they

What Day Is The Lord’s Day?

I will begin by stating that each day is a gift of God.  “This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it” (Psm. 118:24).  However, there is a certain day that has been given the designation “the Lord’s day”.  John wrote, “I was in the Spirit on

Evil For Evil

Near the end of what we now call First Thessalonians, the apostle Paul wrote several things that are important in the life of a Christian.  One of those things is “See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men” (1

Lord, Are There Few That Be Saved?

While working during His earthly ministry, Jesus was asked a question that might have crossed your mind at some time.  “Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved…” (Luke 13:23)?  It is has been the concern of many whether or not they will get to Heaven.  The answer that Jesus gave

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

A Look At Love

It is a fact that one of the most important things that should exist in a Christian’s life is love.  Over and over this precept is taught throughout God’s Word.  It has even been noted that the Bible is a book about God’s love for us.  Some of the most well known verses of Scripture

Remember Lot’s Wife

How much value do you place on studying the Old Testament?   You might be surprised, but  some seem to think that a study of the Old Testament is a waste of time and energy.  The idea is that since we live under the New Testament/Law of Christ, we ought to avoid the Old Testament.  Is

The True Bread From Heaven

Have you ever been truly hungry?  I am not asking about whether your appetite is aroused when the clock is at a certain time of day.  We all have appetites.  What I am asking is have you ever gone so long without nourishment that you really experienced hunger?  When one has lived in such a
