    Joseph’s pit experience

    Genesis 37d. In the pit Last Sunday we looked at the fact that there was a great animosity on the part of the brothers toward Joseph. That animosity steamed from rivalry among the mothers. That bitterness was very obvious that weather they meant it or not the boys developed that, toward ...read more

The Sixth Commandment says very simply: "You shall not murder" (Exodus 20:13; Deuteronomy 5:17). Our translation "murder" makes it clear that ...read more

    Paul asks Christians to give Thanks "always and in everything". A deeper look into the subject reveals that this is an impossibility for mankind.

    Thanksgiving – A Gift to enjoy A man was pushing a pram with a child in the pram. The child was creating trouble and screaming and throwing tantrums. The man who was pushing the pram kept repeating at regular intervals “ Keep cool Andrew.. Keep cool Andrew” A passer by woman was impressed at this ...read more

    The thing that you think might do you in, may be the thing that saves you. What should have killed Jonah, saved him.

    Sometimes what you think might do you in you, will be the one thing that saves you. Sometimes the worst possible thing that could happen to you – is exactly what you need. Sometimes the thing you fear, is the thing that will turn your life around. We see this with the prophet Jonah. He is thrown ...read more

    Keep in mind that to do what is right to make us distinct is doable, adding godliness to steadfastness.

    Have you ever tried swimming against the current? For those of us who tried, I believe we found it so difficult and we even felt like drowning.
