Exercising And Exorcising

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 8, 2025

In this passage, we see two blind men who had to "exercise" their faith to receive their sight. However, we see another kind of exercise in this passage; or rather, “exorcise,” as Jesus exorcised a demon from a man who was mute.

You have probably heard someone say before that we need to “exercise” our faith. In Hebrews chapter 12, we read, “Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith” (Hebrews 12:1b-2a). Jesus is both the author and finisher. He is ...read more

Prologue Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jan 9, 2023

John's introduction to his Gospel beautifully and artfully lays the foundation for the rest of his book as he provides insight into the nature, work and witness of the Word - Jesus Christ!

Today, we are going to look into what the truth is and why it is so important for us to recognize the truth the way God intended it. Through His Son, Jesus. Jesus is the way, the TRUTH and the life.

They look at the Bible, and then they only believe those verses that they like - the rest of it, they push it out, and then... ...read more
