    Real ministry shows compassion that flows from one heart to another. It is true that the deepest theology ever written flows from Paul’s pen but his writings changed the world because they first touched the human heart. This passage shows the secret of hi

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: The story is told of General William Booth, the founder of the Salvation Army, and the day Queen Victoria of England asked to meet with him.

    If You Would Be Perfect

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 31, 2015
     | 6,016 views

    Stewardship begins with stewardship of life--receiving the life that Jesus offers. All that we consider "stewardship" flows from this first great decision.

    “Behold, a man came up to him, saying, ‘Teacher, what good deed must I do to have eternal life?’ And he said to him, ‘Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. If you would enter life, keep the commandments.’ He said to him, ‘Which ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,971 views

    If someone is looking for perfection in the Bride of Christ, they are not likely to find it. People focus on an ideal symmetry, but God gives His perfection to imperfect. We will be perfected at the return of our Saviour.

    “He had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him.” [1] Most of us don’t have to look very far to find things we don’t like about ourselves.

    Holiness defines the life of that one who walks with the Lord. Holiness is not caught, it is cultivated. Unrighteousness, however, is contagious.

    As a follower of Christ you will be compelled to enter into spiritual battle. Paul encourages us by pointing us to Christ and the strength that is His. Therefore, let us stand firm in the victory that our Lord has won on our behalf.

    “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.
