     | 242 views

    In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. There is no mention of galaxies or planets, either in Genesis or any other book of the Bible. Christians should follow the word of God and not the vain imaginations and theories of men.

    After all that’s happened so far – Jonah’s initial disobedience; God’s humbling of Jonah; Jonah’s going to Nineveh at the second time of asking; the Ninevites’ believing the message and being spared – surely you’d expect there to be a happy ending!

    It’s quite odd that most Christians today forget even though the Sabbath commandment is the only one that God purposely began with the word “Remember.”

    This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.

     | 583 views

    The Law could not make one righteous but pointed the way to Christ. Scripture locks everyone up under the control of sin. The Law also locked up the ones under it as well. We open up the meaning of baptism in the New Testament, both water and Spirit. Both are essential.

But imagine seeing this “want ad” for a preacher: 1. “Must have experience as a shepherd, CEO, office manager, educator, salesman, diplomat, referee, writer, theologian, politician, ...read more
