Can Heaven Really Be Real?

          How many times have we longed for a place where there is serenity and tranquility? While we may take trips to isolated areas of forest and wilderness to search for such things, they are temporal at best.  We eventually have to succumb to the realization that the vacation will end.  We have to return

Born Again

John chapter three is one of the most referenced segments of Scripture in all of the Bible.  Of course it contains the familiar verse, John 3:16, but there is much more in that chapter than just that one verse.  At the beginning of the chapter we are introduced to a Pharisee named Nicodemus.  Nicodemus came

Being Like Jesus

Have you ever thought about what the world would be like if everyone thought and acted like Jesus?  Imagine the kindness that would be shown.  Imagine the love that would be demonstrated.  Imagine the peacefulness that would exist.  While there are some individuals that have no interest in thinking and acting like Jesus, there are

A Faithful Servant Of God

He is/was a faithful servant of God.  For a Christian, that is about as complimentary of a statement that anyone can make about you!  While there are synonymous terms that could be used to refer to the same individual, simply being known as a faithful servant of God is truly a privilege.           Unfortunately, some

Here Am I; Send Me

            Isaiah wrote, “In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain

How Will We Choose

             Moses said, “I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: That thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey

All Things New

Jesus said, “And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.” Revelation 21:5.  Every person likes new things. Having new things keeps our economy moving. We often become bored with the old things and buy new ones.

The Whosoevers

Who are the “whosoevers?” This word has a number of meanings in the Greek language. Whatever Greek word one chooses still shows that everyone has the opportunity to be saved, have forgiveness of sins, born again, or condemned.             John writes in John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his
