    based on 1 rating
     | 2,330 views

    Punishment for wrongdoing is essential, but according to Hosea, punishment is not to meet the demands of justice but rather to restore the ones who have done the wrong.

     | 1,005 views

    Often what we perceive as doubt is not really that severe. We experience times in which faith in Christ seems overwhelmingly demanding.

    We may cluck our tongues and roll our eyes at Thomas in this snippet from John’s Gospel. “How can the unanimous testimony,” we wonder, “of those who saw Jesus that Easter evening still leave Thomas, absent without leave then, in doubt of the Resurrection?” At first glance he just looks irreparably ...read more

    We continue this second week of our 40 day journey through Lent as we walk with Jesus to the cross. Last week I reminded us of the scripture passage from Luke 9:51 which said “When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem.” Jesus, knowing full well what would ...read more

     | 1,422 views

    Nebuchadnezzar was a smart enough man to demand objective proof of revelation from God, and Daniel was the man through whom God produced it.

    King Nebuchadnezzar was wise in taking a stand that was fool proof on getting a true interpretation of his dream. He demanded of the interpreter that he also produced the dream. Too many people in history have been gullible and they have accepted the lies of men for the leading of the Spirit. ...read more
