     | 3,985 views

    This sessions will help you to know the commentary for the verse one of Jude. Mainly about the author Jude, Book of Jude and finally the readers of Jude. It's known as Acts of the Apostates.

    Session 1 Jude 1:1 Introduction to the Book of Jude Introduction: Who wrote Jude? To whom did he write? For what reason did he write? These questions must be answered if we are to have any hope of understanding the meaning of the text within these 25 verses. It is therefore sadly ironic that few ...read more

     | 1,051 views

    The love of Christ should compel us to testify on his behalf before the court of the world.

    Lots of people are testifying these days. We’ve got trials in California and New York and Georgia and Washington D.C. Politicians and government officials and even just ordinary people caught up in things are all either pouring their hearts out or nowhere to be found. Some are practically begging ...read more

    It doesn’t matter how much you care if you aren’t teaching your people what they need to know.

    Education is a hot topic around the country this year. It’s no longer about testing and accountability, but about curriculum itself. Although there’s an additional level of complication with the disagreement over why different groups have different outcomes. We no longer know, if we ever did, what ...read more

     | 423 views

    Life on earth is temporary. What we do with the time we have here will depend on where we spend eternity. Paul is pouring out his innermost feelings and advice on how to finish the race well. It is a fight, but a good one.

    Death bed narratives are when people share their innermost feelings at the most vulnerable time of their lives. It is their last words and can be secrets they have held on to for their entire lives or it can be valuable advice or instruction to those whom they love so very much. I am suggesting ...read more
