    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 23, 2022
     | 657 views

    Our culture is filled with so much moral depravity so how can we escape? Regarding temptation, Paul offers the Corinthians staunch support.

    Paul said that bad desires and temptations can happen to anyone, so do not think that we are the only ones at risk. We can also resist temptation, as others have. We can resist any temptation because God will assist us in doing so. With God’s help, we can resist temptation if: We ...read more

     | 1,325 views

    What will the Lord have to do, or allowed to be done, for Christians of today to repent and be restored?

    Zechariah hears from God again. In verses 1-6: Jerusalem had fallen due to the sin that the people had allowed to come in. Not only was God jealous for Zion (the place) but also Zion (the people). God protects those He loves but He does allow things to happen to get His people back in line. God ...read more

    Paul has provided guidelines for how believers are to live in a sinful world.

    Paul provides guidelines for living as redeemed people in a fallen world, moving from the theological to the practical.

    What will we find if we truly allow God to search our hearts? Will we like what we see?

    (1, 23-24) God cannot lie, God cannot die, and God cannot save an unwilling soul. In verses 1-7: There are times that we do not let some people become more totally acquainted with us. We are apprehensive they will find something about us that they do not care for. In any case, God has a deep ...read more

    Do You Have Vision?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 26, 2022
     | 809 views

    Vision is both a physical necessity and a spiritual necessity. Lacking either one can be detrimental in our well being.

    In this verse, the prophets’ revelation is referred to as a vision. Crime and sin thrive in places where people are ignorant of God. Public morality is dependent not only on knowing about God but also on adhering to God’s laws. People must know God’s ways and follow His rules for both nations and ...read more

     | 1,498 views

    The process of counting what a company has in its inventory is known as taking inventory. Can we apply this same process to our Christian walk?

    Taking Inventory of the Church: Paul is discussing a trip with Barnabas. Why did Paul take this second missionary journey and what was the purpose? Why would they want to go? Why should they? What has happened since his last visit? How many have been converted? He wants to go back and check on the ...read more

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 27, 2022
     | 1,882 views

    Jesus teaches about the Vine and the branches. What are we and what is our condition?

    The grapevine is a very productive plant; a solitary plant that bears numerous grapes. In the Old Testament, grapes represented Israel's productivity (fruitfulness) in taking care of and doing the work of God on earth (Psalm 80:8; Isaiah 5:1-7; Ezekiel 19:10-14). In the Passover meal, the fruit ...read more

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 28, 2022
     | 895 views

    In this passage of Scripture, God was asking the people why they had fasted. They were urged to be merciful and just people. Do our actions resemble the actions of the Jews from our reading?

    In verses 1-7: For the past 70 years, individuals had been holding a fast in August to recollect the annihilation of Jerusalem. Since Jerusalem was being rebuilt, they went to the Temple to inquire as to whether they needed to proceed with this yearly fast. God did not address their inquiry ...read more

    Everyone gets tired now and then, but God’s power never diminishes, and He is never too fatigued or too preoccupied to hear us or to assist us.

    The Three Trees

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 29, 2022
     | 2,188 views

    Long ago there were three trees. One was a fig tree, one a sycamore tree, and the last tree we know not what type it was. Regardless of what the last tree was made of, we want to look at the significance of the three trees.

    John 1:45-51 Nathanael One Man Under a Tree Under Condemnation Nazareth was scorned by the Jews due to the Roman army that was stationed there. Nathanael's remark undoubtedly mirrored the public view. Philip found Nathanael and said that they had found Jesus of Nazareth, the one Moses and ...read more
