It is interesting the way the Lord has arranged for the babies to be fed. I think most people have noticed the method used by birds as the young are fed. ...read more

A Person Of Interest

No Sleepwalking Allowed Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 28, 2023

| 1,229 views

Sleepwalking is a dangerous practice, because those who practice it are unconscious, unaware of the dangers around them. In the same way, spiritual sleepwalking is dangerous, but moreso, because those who casually sleepwalk their way through life, expose themselves to deadly deceptions.

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Aug 5, 2009

| 5,936 views

Church unity requires our behaving in such a way as to not grieve the work of the Holy Spirit.

In a church bulletin, a hurried secretary typed “the church was untied,” instead of, “the church was united.” What was out of place? The “I” was!
