Passing On The Faith

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 16, 2014

Moses reiterated God's commands and recalled the stories of God's works to the new generation. We are called to share our faith journey. Obedience to God's Word brings His blessings. Obedience is a blessing.

Pass on the faith, because that’s how we pass on God’s blessings. The best gift we can give someone is to pass on our faith, to help someone put their faith in God and walk in His ways. • This is probably the greatest and most lasting blessing we can give ...read more

Who Is The Greatest? A Child?

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Sep 16, 2021

In my opinion Mark 9:33-35 explains the complete plan of God since creation. Sin & death is dealt with in Jesus, and then every beleiver is a partner with God in doing good deeds, being servants. quote from: "Unseen Realm" Michael Heiser

There Is A Payday At The End Of The Road

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Jul 22, 2020

Jesus is more than religion. Jesus is about a daily personal relationship. There are more than just 10 commandments, 613 MITZVOT AND 4,973 rules. The DO i HAVE TO attitudes misses the target of love. Our goal: THAT I MIGHT KNOW HIM...

"Friday Tragedy? Easter Triumph!”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Mar 31, 2021

If the body of Jesus had decayed into dust within the borrowed tomb, we would not be singing the songs of Easter. They thought It was a tragic end to the “One” who had raised the dead. Tears told the sadness in their hearts. Resurrection shatters the grip of fear.
