Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 9, 2021

We have here a valuable insight into God's tenderness. Some may feel that preaching on cattle and God's concern for animals is irrelevant, and unworthy of pulpit time. If that be so, you only reveal how little you know of what God has revealed about Himself.

There are several words in our “Holy vocabulary” that even Christians don’t fully understand. Taking a closer look at some of these Holy words to make sure that we fully understand them before we use them.

As I was praying over what direction God would have me to go, God brought my attention to the fact that, as Christians, we have a unique vocabulary.

Look at 2 Timothy 1:5, we read, “When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy ...read more
