Build The Church By Being The Church

Nehemiah has notable character strengths which enabled the Jews to deal with conflict and injustice among them.

There exists a direct correlation between the effectiveness of our mission and how we treat one another as God’s people. We must be the church before we can build the church.

INTRODUCTION Revelation is a difficult book. We can’t deny that. The fact that it’s difficult might put us off reading it. But as well as being difficult, many Christians don’t like Revelation’s message. Among other things, it talks about tribulation and wrath and judgment. Other parts of the ...read more

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 28, 2022

Job was the ideal role model, for a good "elder" in ancient Israel. Authority is used for the vulnerable, to create authentic unity. Part 3 of cities of refuge.

Captives Free

Contributed by Ian Hyde on Apr 29, 2019

Just as God was faithful to Israel by returning them to the land and restoring the nation when all hope had seemed lost; so today, Christ is faithful to transform ashes into a beautiful headdress, a spirit of mourning into the oil of gladness, and a faint spirit into a garment of praise.
