    Are We On The Road To Castaway Island?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 17, 2023
     | 1,023 views

    Many have read and undoubtedly heard this Scripture countless times before. It speaks of someone running a race. But we need to see the spiritual aspect of this road that we are on.

    The Apostle Paul concludes Chapter 9 with a plea for self-disciple and self-denial in the Christian life. He compares himself to the athletes in the Isthmian games, which was well known by the Corinthians. In any case, in the Christian race all may run in order to obtain the prize. First ...read more

    How Are We To Have Hope For The Resurrection Meeting?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 19, 2023
     | 963 views

    We are to remember the hope of the resurrection and have a watchfulness for the Lord.

    Prophetic truth has a utilitarian reason. It is to condemn the hearts of sinners. It is to empower Christians to holiness, and to provide hope and solace to Christians in the hour of death. This letter was composed to address a portion of the worries tormenting the Thessalonian Christians. These ...read more

    Have We Been Called?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 20, 2023
     | 1,199 views

    Jesus has placed a call to people, but who and how many have actually answered? What has been our response, if any?

    Have we picked up the Holy telephone or have we left the earthly answering machine on? Have we looked at the caller ID and just thought to ourselves that we will take the call later? Have we told the unholy secretary to hold all calls? Or have we responded, “Speak, for thy servant heareth” (1 ...read more

    Where Does Love Come From?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 21, 2023
     | 1,305 views

    If we center ourselves on God, abiding in His giving love, there could be no avenue for the works of the flesh to enter into our lives.

    For this passage of Scripture, we need to understand the four types of love. There is the Agape – unconditional love (Godly), the Philia – beneficial love (brotherly), the Storge – family love, and the Eros – romantic love. In verses 7-8: Everybody accepts that love is significant, yet we ...read more

     | 1,530 views

    Can we remember a time when God did something wonderful for us? Can we remember a time when the Lord did something for someone else? Can we remember a time when we were useful to the Lord?

    The Feast of Purim has begun. In verses 17-22: • People sometimes have short recollections with regards to God’s reliability. • To help deter this problem, Mordecai recorded these events and urged a yearly occasion to celebrate the noteworthy day of Purim. • Festivities of eating, happiness, ...read more

    We Can Escape

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 23, 2022
     | 699 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

    Restored

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 24, 2022
     | 1,394 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

     | 1,180 views

    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. We are to offer ourselves as a living sacrifice to Christ, to follow the law, to love our neighbors, and to especially care for the faithless. In the Old Testament, priests had ...read more

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 25, 2022
     | 1,349 views

    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

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 25, 2022
     | 1,136 views

    Where is the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ today? What is the cost of preaching that message?

    Where is that message today? This is a two-fold message. First, the call to preach the Gospel. Second, the cost of preaching the Gospel. Since Jesus started His earthly ministry, He has called various people to follow Him, and then told them to go out into all the world and preach the ...read more

    Do You Have Vision?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 26, 2022
     | 843 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

    Taking Inventory

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 26, 2022
     | 1,570 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

    A Fruitful Vineyard

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 27, 2022
     | 1,949 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
