    Seven Spiritual Gifts In The Body Of Christ Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 15, 2024
     | 659 views

    I have a body with hands, shoulders, feet, knees, eyes, ears, and all sorts of different parts. They do not all have the same function, do they? My feet do very different things from my hands. Yet they are all part of my body. They work together, not against each other.

    When examining the human body, there are numerous systems all working at the same time to regulate, protect, strengthen, and heal the human body. There is the respiratory system which brings oxygen into the body and expels carbon dioxide. The brain communicates instructions to the rest of the body. ...read more

    What We Don’t See?

    Contributed by Gerald Roberts on Sep 14, 2011
    based on 6 ratings
     | 9,831 views

    The servant of the prophet Elisha never saw the encamping angels that were there to protect, as a result the sermon is centralized on the concept of things we don’t see when we need protection.

    Surrounded by an army, Elisha’s servant cried, "What shall we do?" But when Elisha prayed, the servant could suddenly see that God’s forces, invisible to everyone else, far outnumbered the enemy. The story offers a rare glimpse of the "invisible world" of supernatural forces. God has resources to ...read more

    An Important Hebrew Name Of God

    Contributed by William Nickoley on Feb 4, 2017

    The Bible reveals many different variations of God’s name to reveal more to us about who He is! Yahweh-Tsidkenu is a name central to our relationship with God.

What we don’t realize perhaps is that words from one language do not always translate easily into the other language. I am sure the Bible ...read more
