Contributed by Horace Wimpey on Feb 28, 2015

In Paul's letter to the Corinthian believers, he reminds them that the philosophy that they brought with them into the church was no longer the philosophy that they were to live by. There was wisdom in the cross.

A Jealous God Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Mar 1, 2015

God is “jealous” in the sense that He expects complete, exclusive devotion; not merely a partial, lukewarm, half-hearted religious observance. Worship belongs to God. He is worthy of worship and has a right to be “jealous” of it.

The Bible clearly teaches that God is a jealous God. That doesn’t sit well with us; the very notion of the jealousy of God sounds offensive. We think of jealousy as an entirely negative quality--a sin. Yet God declares that He is jealous. God restricts allegiance to Himself alone: ...read more

The God Of Peace

Contributed by Anthony Zibolski on Mar 5, 2015

These words carried the weight of the world and brought the savior of mankind. You cannot love the baby Jesus and not accept the risen savior. You cannot have one without the other. You cannot have peace, true peace without Jesus.

Recognizing God

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 10, 2015

Many a times we have wondered what would it be like if God showed up? In fact God is looking for that time alone with you so that you would voluntarily shut yourself out from the busyness of life and respond to His attention. Will we?

Opening illustration: Children sometimes seem like they have holes in their ears. You tell them what you want them to do, and it goes in and out without ever being registered. But if you promise something special to a child, they will not ever forget. Try to tell your child that you can’t go ...read more
