    Head Covering – Custom Or Ordinance?

    Contributed by Tarran Dookie on Jan 5, 2026
     | 55 views

    What does head covering depict? It depicts the submission of the woman to the man even as the man must submit to the headship of Christ. Head covering is about authority. We are not dealing with a mere first century Pauline concept but with the eternal word of God.

    HEAD COVERING – CUSTOM OR ORDINANCE? ( by brother Tarran Dookie) SUBMISSION TO AUTHORITY Gen 6:6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto ...read more

    Do I Love God? Do I Believe In God’s Word?

    Contributed by Robert Webb on Jan 26, 2026
     | 58 views

    If we love God what would be our response to those who don’t think like I do, don’t look like I do, don’t feel like I do? Do I miss God in someone because I’m looking for myself in them?

    The Palestinian Covenant Of God With Israel

    Contributed by Raymond Petzholt on Mar 12, 2024
     | 1,709 views

    God’s Covenants with Israel permanently & irreversibly set God’s plan for Israel & the Middle East. The Unconditional Palestinian Covenant (Deut. 28 - 30) enables us to understand Israel's relationship with the Promised Land throughout her History. It is a faith inspiring study.

    The Palestinian Covenant (Deuteronomy 28-30; Ezek. 16) We must understand the Certainty of God’s ‘Promise’ & His ‘Oath.’ Hebrews 6:16-19 says “Men verily swear [the promise] by the greater: & an oath [of the covenant] for confirmation is to them an end of all strife. (17) God, willing ...read more

    Did God make a mistake in having His Son be born in a barn to an unwed virgin? While it all sounds scandalous, it's exactly what we need!

    We must approach the Bible without preconceived ideas. We should let it speak for itself. The Holy Spirit never contradicts Himself. If a scripture contradicts our theology, our theology is probably wrong. As Jesus said, "The scripture cannot be broken."
