A long time ago I taught some lessons on business ethics. I read various books on business ethics and based my lessons on them. One book ...read more

    Throughout the bible God's relationship with his people is often referred to as a marriage relationship. He is our husband, we are his bride. So, what kind of husband is God? Let's find out.

    1) Betrothed. The first part of a Jewish wedding ceremony is the betrothal. We would liken it to an engagement.

     | 2,951 views

    One of the important areas that Jesus spoke a lot about was the enslavement to money and material possessions. Money is essential for our basic needs and daily living, but we should be wary to not let money become our master. Here is a study on being under different masters!

    More than one master? We read like this in Matthew 6:24, “No man is able to be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other, or he will keep to one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.” (BBE) In the above mentioned ...read more
