Contributed by Thomas Fortini on Aug 19, 2020

Living by faith is not about the here and now, but the hereafter!

The Refuge

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 9, 2014

God provided cities of refuge for the man in trouble. It was not an afterthought but planned for, even before Israel enters the Promised Land. God is merciful. He is our refuge and strength.

Our Place Of Refuge (Part 2)

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Jan 9, 2022

This week, I’d like to pick up our study on how the Cities of Refuge resemble Jesus, how He is not only our sure refuge, but also how He is our judge, that is, our great High Priest. I’d also like to take a closer look at what Jesus rescues us from and is a refuge in, and what sort of refuge He is

What is our true refuge, our place of safety? Can we trust God to protect us from trouble or danger? Let’s review Joshua 20. What was the purpose of the refuge cities?

That you would trust in Jesus. The word “believe” appears more than seventy times throughout the ...read more
