     | 3,742 views

    Man has the power to subdue the largest, strongest, and wildest beasts in nature, yet he has not the power to subdue his tongue. All that he can do, is to put on it the bridle (James 1.26) and be slow speak, swift to hear and slowness to wrath.

Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them. 30 And do not bring sorrow to God’s Holy Spirit by the way you ...read more

    We must approach the Bible without preconceived ideas. We should let it speak for itself. The Holy Spirit never contradicts Himself. If a scripture contradicts our theology, our theology is probably wrong. As Jesus said, "The scripture cannot be broken."

    In Heaven, all preachers will be out of a job, but not praisers. Now, praise can change your focus, change your circumstances, change your enemies' position, and change those around you. Every Christian ought to be a Hallelujah from head to foot!

    Running The Race

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 1, 2025

    The New Testament likens the Christian life to running a race. We look at how it uses the metaphor. It calls us to strive, to improve, and to stay the course.

We’re presently in a series in which we’re looking at items in the news. In some of the ...read more
