    Why is obedience more important to God than sacrifice? Obedience is more important than sacrifice because we can sacrifice without loving God, but we obey God because we love Him. Jesus said (John 14:15 NIV) "If you love me, you will obey what I comman

    Obedience over Sacrifice By Greg Johnson May 6, 2007 http://www.LovingGodFellowship.org One of King Saul’s major flaws was that he tried to spiritualize his disobedience to God and His Word.

    Wise Men Sought Jesus And They Still Do

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 18, 2011

     | 5,169 views

    A short talk for our all-age Nativity service, a week before Christmas. This year I focused on the phrase WISE MEN SOUGHT JESUS - THEY STILL DO. I remember seeing that on a car sticker 30 years ago.

    Wise men sought Jesus and they still do. Although the Bible never calls them Wise men, the Magi (2:1) were non-Jewish, religious men from the east who studied the stars. The Bible doesn’t tell us how many Magi came to worship Jesus, but they were Magi plural, not single; and they were indeed wise. ...read more

    How thoughtful God had been to fix those bulbs on their foreheads so that they don’t have to grope blindly in the dark.

    Sparkling Beetles! Psalm 119:105”Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” Sunday morning as I was praying and preparing for the church service, God suddenly brought to my memory the ‘sparkling beetles’ that I saw in my childhood days, in the hilly area of ...read more

    Alas, the great, powerful pagan monarch Pharaoh found ‘none’ in his colossal palace to give him a piece of advice and interpret the dream for him among the plethora of magicians and wise men of Egypt!

    Will What A Christian Has Done Be Judged Publicly Before Everyone?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 17, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,397 views

    For the Christian, will our sins "be shown on a big screen for everyone to see"? I argue that while we are forgiven and saved by grace, our sins will be brought up at the Bema Judgment because they impact our fruitfulness.

    The Big Screen Question: Will what a Christian has done (including their sins) be judged publicly on a big screen? - John MacArthur says no. He says that our sins will not be mentioned at all. I disagree. - The issue, of course, is not the big screen, but rather whether in the process of being ...read more
