    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 26, 2025
     | 173 views

    Christians honor civil authority, but when obedience to people means disobedience to God, they obey Him with courage, humility, and unshakable joy.

    The council chamber in Jerusalem was tense. Leaders of the Sanhedrin gathered in a semicircle, their robes still and their eyes sharp. In the center stood a handful of Galilean fishermen who had been arrested for one reason: they would not stop speaking the name of Jesus. The high priest leaned ...read more

    God's Tough Love

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Jun 25, 2012
    based on 6 ratings
     | 14,657 views

    Often God has to spank as part of His loving discipline. Heb. 12:6 “…whom the LORD loves He chastens, and scourges every son whom He receives." There are at least 3 purposes to God’s tough love or chastening - instruction, correction, and prevention.

    God’s Tough Love Job 5:17-18 “Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects; therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty. For He bruises, but He binds up; He wounds, but His hands make whole. Have you ever thought that God was upset or angry with you? When we go through some ...read more
