    Every Wise Woman Builds Her House

    Knowingly or unknowingly, as women, we are in the business of building – building lives. It is necessary to build our homes as a wise woman. Three ways: Build with a strong foundation: WORD OF GOD. Build with a strong connection: PRAYER. Build with strong brick of LOVE

    Proverbs 14:1 - Every wise woman builds her house, but a foolish one tears it down with her own hands. Here Solomon contrasts once again between wisdom and folly, as in many other verses in Proverbs. And often, in all these verses, we find foolish people to be at one end of the spectrum and the ...read more

    Five Wise and Five Foolish Bridesmaids

    Today, as we read in the Gospel Jesus’ parable about the Ten Bridesmaids, I couldn’t but reminisce two memorable experiences I had in September 2013. First, my experience of visiting the Holy Land during the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah. Rosh Hashanah is one of Judaism’s holiest days. It ...read more

    The Four Wise Men (In The Gospel Of John)

    Contributed by Peter Baumgartle on Dec 20, 2023
     | 2,078 views

    The Christmas Story in the Gospel of John is far different than the account in Matthew and Luke. There is no baby, no Mary and Joseph, no angels, no shepherds. But there were four wise men.

    The Gospel of John, chapter 1: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light ...read more

    Our first impression on hearing this title are the wise men of the Christmas story. But in our story, Jesus is answering three men in a manner we’re not accustomed to. From Jesus’s responses, we find some valuable information about God’s kingdom. Come join us on this unusual journey.

    Lessons From the Wise—Go, Ready, Set. Matthew 2:1-2NIV It’s poor etiquette to attend a party and not bring the host/honoree a gift. We should feel privileged to receive an invitation to attend. Therefore, it’s extremely important that we bring the right gifts to the honoree—King Jesus. These ...read more

    The Prime Minister of Israel, David Ben Gurion, was once asked what MUST they have to defend themselves from their Arab neighbors.

    He replied, "The only thing we need are things which begin with the letter 'A'." He then explained: We need: • A lot of tanks. • A lot of money. • A lot of guns. • And a lot of soldiers. In order for us Christians to win this war in soul winning, everything we MUST have also ...read more

    Years ago the Hallmark Card Company used to advertise extensively on television.

    The story of Zacchaeus' meeting the Lord is one that we all love to hear.

    It has many intriguing things about it. For example, when Jesus was going through Jericho and He met Zacchaeus there, what kind of man did He meet? 1. Zacchaeus was wealthy. We read in verse 2, "And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he ...read more

    A concept in soul winning that you hear very little about that enables Christians to be successful soul winners involves their becoming like the Master Soul Winner - Jesus Christ!

    Everything about His marvelous life teaches us about soul winning. Illus: For example, when Jesus wanted to let the world know that He loved them, He did not yell from Heaven, "I love all of you! Come to Me, and I will save you" Now He could have done that, but He didn't. Notice ...read more

    God is a God of variety. This is very easy to prove.

    All we have to do is look at His creation to see this is true. However, this is not always true among mankind. Often men try as hard as they can to make things similar..
