    The Old Testament prophets wrote of things to come and strained to look into those things to understand them; things for our instruction. The Holy Spirit moved them to write of Christ who would come. The grace of God is revealed and we look forward to the glorious hope to come.

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,073 views

    Expectation is the active ingredient of faith that is deposited into the heart when the word of God is heard and believed. There is no such thing as a living faith without expectation.

    Nothing You Can Do To Make God Love You More Or Less

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Sep 25, 2024
     | 2,554 views

    Recently I have been hearing quite a few pastors using a quote from Henri Nouwen a Dutch Catholic priest that states, “There is nothing we can do to make God love us more and nothing we can do to make God love us less.” Is that true? Let's see what God's Word has to say about it.

So, I thought maybe it would be Psalm 119 since it has 174 verses and is the longest chapter in the Bible. However, in my Bible it turns out ...read more

    The Bible talks less about what makes a great leader than it does about what makes a great servant. What is it about God's leaders that requires them to be servants of others?
