    Contributed by Larry Vollink on Nov 28, 2020
     | 2,012 views

    God is our Judge and our Joy! Our daily living must reflect what God wants from us -- following the Word of God, submitting to God, resisting the devil, humbling yourselves before the Lord, purifying your heart, and be peace-loving, considerate, full of mercy, and sincere (James 3:17)

    When the Lord appeared to Abraham and the 3 visitors came to him, to tell him that Sarah would have a son, the Lord told him he would destroy Sodom and Gomorrah with the wicked and the righteous together. Abraham called Him 'The Judge of All the Earth." But the "Judge" was able ...read more

    A key indicator of whether you are one of God’s chosen is whether or not you welcome his word.

    Have you ever had to make a speech when you were sick? Well, it looks like that was exactly what Paul did in our study today for his first recorded speech in Pisidian Antioch. His health was ailing, but many of his listeners welcomed the word just the same. It just goes to show that even a sick ...read more

    Jesus Tells Date Of His Crucifixion Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Feb 12, 2019
     | 4,056 views

    Here in this passage, Jesus predicts His death at the hand of the ones who should have been the first to accept him as Israel’s Messiah. It is incredible that these religious leaders perpetrated history’s greatest crime during Israel’s holiest festival.

    JESUS TELLS DATE OF HIS CRUCIFIXION INTRODUCTION Life presents us with many opportunities; how we respond to them depends on what we love and what we look for in life. The Jewish leaders looked for the opportunity to destroy Jesus, while at the same time Jesus was anticipating the opportunity ...read more
