    Rules For A Righteous Life Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 25, 2007
     | 4,454 views

    We Christians need to learn anew how to live a life marked by being quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger, if we will honour God through a righteous life.

    JAMES 1:19-21 RULES FOR A RIGHTEOUS LIFE “Let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness that God requires. Therefore put away all filthiness and rampant wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is ...read more

    Once we have come to know Christ, the rest of our life should be spent in pursuit of spiritual growth as disciple of Jesus Christ. Let’s look at two of many reasons why this is so.

    Evidence (2 Thessalonians 1:1-5) 1. I received a call from the Kokomo Perspective about my opinion regarding the movie, "The Golden Compass." 2. Although the movie is toned down from the books, the author of the series is an avid atheist with an anti-Christian agenda. 3. Many movies assume an ...read more

    Jacob, our Father in the fight, squares off against the Almighty on the field of combat....

    "Jacob was left alone; and a man wrestled with him until daybreak.

    Faith And Fear

    Contributed by Don Baggett on Nov 30, 2007
    based on 3 ratings
     | 10,505 views

    The opposite of faith is fear. Fear is the fruit of unbelief, and it opens the door of your life to the devil. Sixty three times in the Bible, the Lord used the phrase, “Fear not.”

    Faith opens the door of your life to God. Ephesians 2:8 says that our salvation is comes by God’s grace, through our faith. No one could honestly study the ministry of Jesus upon this earth and miss the fact that He honored people’s faith. Hebrews 13:5 says, “Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, ...read more

    Grace And Peace Multiplied

    Contributed by Don Baggett on Dec 6, 2007
     | 7,235 views

    Is there something we can do to receive multiplied grace and peace? We tend to think that couldn’t be true of grace, but the Bible says it is true.

    The Bible writers very often begin their letters by wishing their readers grace and peace. Peter makes no exception in this letter, but he takes it a step further and, in our text, talks about how this will come about. We tend to think that there is nothing we can do to bring God’s grace on ...read more
