    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on May 17, 2024
     | 1,498 views

    More than 5,000 years ago, God promised the Israelites a homeland – it was already occupied by the Palestinians and the Canaanites. And to get there in one piece would be a dream and a miracle if they were successful.

     | 1,340 views

    You may not have needed a lawyer yet, but there will come a time when you will, because 2 Corinthians 5:10 says, “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.”

    Alba 6-9-2024 YOU NEED A GOOD LAWYER I John 2:1-2 Lawyers have not always had a good reputation, and some for good reason. I found a story about two lawyers arguing a case in court and they began to call each other names. One roared, “You're a loop-brained shyster.” The other shouted, “And ...read more

    God tells us to pursue wisdom... but what kind of wisdom should I want, and how can obtain it?

    When you build a house you want to be wise about the kind of contractors you hire, the kinds of materials you use, the research you do… and you’ll want to be wise in choosing the location to build the home. This last one can be extremely important… For example, a few years ago a Chicago family ...read more

    It Never Crossed His Mind Again

    Contributed by Russell (Rusty) Pruitt on Jul 15, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,392 views

    Although Jesus was and is fully God, He was and is fully man. He can feel what we feel because, as the Word says, He was “…in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin” (Heb. 4:15). We are going to look at how His faith was tested, but He did not sin – not even one time.

    IT NEVER CROSSED HIS MIND AGAIN TEXT: HEBREWS 12:1-3 INTRODUCTION: We are told to “consider” Jesus, Who “endured the cross” and despised “the shame.” He endured the shame because of, “the joy that was set before Him.” He is the beginner and finisher of our faith. He walked the way of faith first ...read more

    Nothing But The Blood

     | 2,762 views

    You could give all your blood to Red Cross, you could give all your possessions to the poor, you could give your life to save the life of someone else… and you still couldn’t pay off the sins of your past. There’s only one thing that can cover our sins, and that’s the blood of Jesus.

     | 2,290 views

    The world-as-it-is, is a pretty messed up place. We cannot fix it by ourselves. Good news is that there is one person who can. Let us put our faith in Jesus Christ alone. Join Dr. Madana Kumar, PhD, as he expounds on this idea.

    World-as-it-is to World-as-it-should-be We cannot escape bad news even if we want to, nowadays. Media channels and social media scream out bad news to us, unless we are on a media fast.
