Don't Be Deceived

Contributed by Wade Biggs on Oct 18, 2000

Too many people in the Church are deceived today concerning God's wisdom, word, will, and His way.

Don't Panic

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Nov 18, 2006

The disciples panicked, and of course sometimes we do too. However, Jesus may rebuke us! Whatever the situation, he will be in the boat with us, he will be with us, and he will bring peace into the storms of life we face.

Matthew 8: 23-27 As I was reading this Bible passage through yesterday morning I had a ‘flash-back’ to my child-hood. As I imagined the storm on the lake and the disciples saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown”; some famous words (for a UK audience!) went through my mind: “Don’t panic Mr. ...read more

Matthew, Mark and Luke record an interesting verbal interchange between Jesus and His disciples. It concerns the “end of days.” They asked Him, “tell us about the sign of the end.” Jesus’ initial response was almost ominous, “watch that no one deceive you”… Have you ever been deceived? How did ...read more
