Living Debt-Free

Contributed by Jeff Van Wyk on Apr 26, 2013

God has never wanted His people to live in a constant state of debt. It is important to God for His people to be debt-free because debt places someone other than God in the position of power over them.

Living Debt-Free Deuteronomy 28:12 - The LORD will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands.

Ask, Seek, Knock

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jul 29, 2014

Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened. Does this mean Jesus is our genie in a bottle? Can I ask for anything I want and Jesus will just give it to me? There's much to understand about what Jesus said here.

ASK, SEEK, KNOCK Matt. 7:7-12 1) Ask, Seek, Knock (7-8). Here we see three different words three different meanings. I think this illustrates a process; like a chain of events if you will. As the Fourfold gospel commentary puts it, “Asking is a simple use of voice, seeking is a motion of the ...read more

Living An Abundant Life

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 11, 2014

One might think living an abundant life would be about having a surplus of money, things, power, etc. But the abundant life that Jesus promises in John 10:10 is not about that. Let's see what living an abundant life in Christ is all about.

LIVING AN ABUNDANT LIFE 1) Jesus came to offer us the fullness of life. John 10:10, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” Jesus starts out by talking about the thief-who is Satan. And Jesus reveals what Satan ...read more
