     | 10,840 views

    When the Faith ebbs, God raises up a rude prophet to challenge the evil that has insinuated itself into the lives of the people of God.

    “Then Elijah said to all the people, ‘Come near to me.’ And all the people came near to him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that had been thrown down. Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the LORD came, saying, ‘Israel ...read more

    Act Like Men

     | 12,333 views

    The people of God are engaged in a great battle. If we will engage the enemy and advance the cause of Christ, we need to heed the commands issued in this text.

    “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” The Christian Faith is a woman’s religion; and I’m glad this is so! Historically, women were excluded from religion. In the pagan religions extant at the time the Master presented Himself as a ...read more

    In Ephesians 4:1–6 Paul appeals to believers to walk worthy of their high position in Jesus Christ. In describing that walk he discusses its 1) Call (Ephesians 4:1), 2) Characteristics (Ephesians 4:2-3), and its 3) Cause (Ephesians 4:4-6).

    Ephesians 4:1-6 [4:1] I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, [2] with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, [3] eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. ...read more

    One man delivered into the grace of the Risen Saviour can make a great difference in the advance of the Faith.

    “Seeing the man who was healed standing beside them, they had nothing to say in opposition.” [1] God has no secret agents.

    You Don't Look Like Your Picture!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 18, 2022
     | 2,737 views

    The first church was powerful for the cause of Christ. When we match the present churches to that earliest congregation, we are often compelled to confess that we don't look like we are their descendants. It is past time for us to take steps to correct this situation.

    “In the first book, O Theophilus, I have dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach, until the day when he was taken up, after he had given commands through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen. He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to ...read more

    Something More

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,061 views

    The errors that infiltrate the Faith are often characterised as teaching that attempts to present "something more." The Faith is simple and complete, requiring no addition from the fertile imagination of any person.

    “Many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. Such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist. Watch yourselves, so that you may not lose what we have worked for, but may win a full reward. Everyone who goes on ahead and does not ...read more

    Unity Demands Theological Integrity

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 21, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 570 views

    Christians are united through commitment to biblical truth, which is reflected in love for Christ and for His people. Professed love without theological integrity destroys unity.

    “I have given [My disciples] your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify ...read more

    If it was a crime to be a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you? Are you able to say what a Christian is?

    PROCLAMING JESUS IN THE MIDST OF PERSECUTION ACTS 4:1-12 All of us have seen the recruiting sign saying that Uncle Sam "wants you."

    Christians must fight a battle for truth - not just for "truths" but for the very idea and possibility of truth.

    The God of Truth Ps. 31:1-5 As a campus minister, it is easy enough for me to see problems in our world today -- from individuals who are just not sure if there is any way to make sense of life to the "Gay and Lesbian Alliance."
