    no matter the difficulties, never, never give up; God has a plan for you

    But this precious treasure—this light and power that now shine within us—is held in perishable containers, that is, in our weak bodies.

  • How Do You Handle Problems?

    Contributed by Lola Olanrewaju on Sep 14, 2017

    Life is a series of problem-solving opportunities. The problems you face will either defeat you or develop you depending on how you handle them. We need to realise that God wants to use problems for good in our lives.

    I came across a sign post sometimes ago which says: "Be kind For everyone you meet is fighting a battle." “Fighting a battle” in this context means facing one problem or the other.  There are people including Christians facing the problem of bereavement, joblessness, barrenness, sicknesses, ...read more

     | 39,307 views

    Less than 200 years ago, teaching began that the Bema Judgment Seat and the Great White Throne Judgment are two separate events.

    This teaching states that at the Bema Seat, the Born-Again Christian will be judged with rewards according to their works, while the Great White Throne judgment is where those who rejected Jesus as Lord and Savior will be judicially judged and given an eternal sentence of torment. This teaching has ...read more

  • Persevering Crackpots

     | 2,568 views

    How did Paul respond to his critics ... ? ... Paul "... said, but we proclaim Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles" (I Cor.1:23 NRSV). The true gospel of Jesus Christ removes all crutches that people use to prop up their pretentiousness!

    PERSEVERING CRACKPOTS Text: II Corinthians 4:5 - 12, 2 Corinthians 4:5-12  For we do not proclaim ourselves; we proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and ourselves as your slaves for Jesus' sake.  (6)  For it is the God who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," who has ...read more

  • Down But Not Out!

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 3, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,445 views

    When it comes to suffering, Paul calls us to forsake pity parties and glorify God. We can remember that Jesus shines through us, that our weaknesses glorify God, that we may be down but never out, and that our sufferings may bring eternal life to others.

    2 Corinthians 4:5-12 Down but Not Out! A Christian need never suffer. At least that’s what some preachers might tell you. However, that is not the message of scripture. Jesus said, “If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also” (John 15:20). We should expect no better treatment than that ...read more

    “We have this treasure in clay jars to show that its extraordinary power comes from God and not from us.
