    If we have been made alive in Christ Jesus, then let us live our lives accordingly.

    A LIFE HID WITH CHRIST IN GOD. Colossians 3:1-7. 1. Since we have been “risen with Christ”, then we must “SEEK THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE, where Christ is…” (COLOSSIANS 3:1).

It is sure to gain a response from the LORD: “and He heard me” (PSALM 120:1b; cf. Psalm 18:6; Psalm ...read more

    CAIN AND ABEL. Genesis 4:2-15. The acceptance of Abel’s offering as opposed to Cain’s is often explained in terms of THE NATURE OF THE SACRIFICE. We are reminded that ‘almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood, there is no remission’ (cf. Hebrews 9:22). ...read more

We are to “be subject unto” them because “the powers ...read more
