    Why Are We Told That God’s Thoughts And Ways Are Not Ours?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Feb 18, 2025
     | 56 views

    God's ways and thoughts are unique in relation to the thoughts and ways of man.

    God's way is unique in relation to man's way. The Gospel is God's direction. It is not man-made. There is no way that any man could have ever come up with it or at any point devise it. Paul stated, “But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. ...read more

    Before we begin, there has been a lot of discussion over the significance of the book of the Song of Solomon. Some might say that this is an exacting tale about love between a married husband and wife. While others will say that this is a moral story of God's adoration for Israel and ...read more

    What is a high look? Have you ever seen someone who walks around with their nose up in the air as if they have to look down there nose just to see you?

     | 60 views

    Knowing someone and being a friend to someone are not the same.

    What sort of companion or friend am I? There is a tremendous contrast between knowing somebody well and being a genuine friend. The best proof of certifiable friendship is steadfast loyalty.

    Allowing the Light to shine on all that we do and all that we may go through is important to show to others our joy in the Lord, regardless of what happens.

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Nov 19, 2024

Judgment against those who violated God’s law (Jeremiah 36:1-6), especially regarding the stealing and lying (5:1-4). The woman in the ephah (basket) exemplified wickedness, thus this vision showed that ...read more

APPOINTED, ACCUSED, APPEARANCE, ACCEPTABLE In verses one - four: Satan “resisted” (accused) Joshua, who depicts the country of Israel here. The allegations were exact, ...read more
