    What does it mean to belong to the church, Jesus' physical body here on Earth?

    The body of Christ. Just what does that mean to us? And why is it important? The Bible clearly teaches the body of Christ is the church.

    Whatever the Christians were going through in Smyrna … whatever we are going through in our lives right now … Jesus not only knows what we are going through, He’s experienced it Himself.

    Imagine having to hide to do what we’re doing right now because if we get caught, we would be arrested and tortured and made to renounce our faith publicly … or be executed. That was the situation and daily reality for the little church in the beautiful city of Smyrna. Smyrna is located 35 ...read more

The reason lies in the fact that grief is a unique ...read more

    In light of everything that has happened with hurricane Katrina and other events around the world we can say beyond the shadow of a doubt that we are living in the last days. Never the less God challenges us to have a heart of compassion.

    Bearing Up

    The sufferings of Jesus were unique in that He suffered once for all, the just for the unjust. But we are still sometimes called to bear up and endure grief, suffering unjustly. Our model was laid down in the patient pattern of His sufferings.

    BEARING UP. 1 Peter 2:19-25. The Apostle Peter uses his address to domestic servants (1 Peter 2:18) to illustrate the calling of all Christians to share in the sufferings of Christ. “For this is grace,” he quite literally says (1 Peter 2:19): this is acceptable; this is thankworthy - if out of ...read more

    Throughout the centuries, the story of Job has been used to help people in times of sorrow and sickness.

However, ...read more
