Receiving The Lord’s Chastening

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 8, 2022

God chastens us for our own good. However, usually, when we are going through His chastening we resist the Lord with all of our might. But this passage shows how it would be beneficial to receive the Lord’s chastening.

I have entitled our message this evening, “Receiving the Lord’s Chastening,” and I wish to begin by sharing an illustration entitled, “God’s Loving Kick”: A Norfolk-Southern train was rolling down the rails of Indiana at 24 miles per hour.

Jesus Defends His Divinity

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 27, 2022

Shortly after Jesus healed the crippled man at the pool of Bethsaida (John 5:1-15), He was confronted by the religious officials who wanted Him dead for saying that God was His Father, making Himself equal withe God. Jesus responded with facts to back up His claim.

If there was an apt description of the attitude of the Pharisees towards the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ (John 5:18), it is this, "There are none so blind as those who will not see". All throughout this account of the Lord's life and work and in the other Gospels as ...read more

The Lord is to be feared, especially by those who are in rebellion against Him. However, the fear of the Lord seems to be absent from many churches. Is that spiritually healthy?
