    Doing Your Duty With A Little Faith

    Contributed by Richard L. Brown on May 23, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,975 views

    This is a lesson about using the gifts that God has already given us instead of wishing our lives away wanting what God has not ordained. It features the problem that the first disciples were having and Jesus' answer to them when they asked for more faith.

    Doing Your Duty with a Little Faith Luke 17: 5-10, 2 Timothy 1:3-12 The Apostles were with Jesus daily. They saw miracles that would make their hearts stand still and yet they wanted more faith. What more could Jesus possibly give them? The answer is, he doesn’t give them anything more. ...read more

    Standing Firm In The Truth

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 3,513 views

    The "mystery of lawlessness is already at work," but God had revealed the truth to His people, the truth in which we must "stand firm."

    God’s people in Thessalonica were confused. Someone they trusted had lied to them. Someone had told them that the day of Christ’s return had come and gone and that they had missed it. Christ’s return is just one thread, of course, in the total fabric of doctrine, but, like all the other threads, ...read more
