    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 17, 2023
     | 936 views

    Many have read and undoubtedly heard this Scripture countless times before. It speaks of someone running a race. But we need to see the spiritual aspect of this road that we are on.

    The Apostle Paul concludes Chapter 9 with a plea for self-disciple and self-denial in the Christian life. He compares himself to the athletes in the Isthmian games, which was well known by the Corinthians. In any case, in the Christian race all may run in order to obtain the prize. First ...read more

    Are All People Sinners? Series

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Nov 13, 2022
     | 1,189 views

    Paul answers the question that he gives to the Jews, “Are we better than they?” referring to the Gentiles. His answer is in no wise are we better. Paul calls attention to again that each individual is that “they are all under sin,” regardless of whether Jewish or Gentile.

    Romans 3:9-23 contains a series of statements from the Old Testament Scriptures. Paul utilizes these to show that the Jews and Greeks are similar under transgression. Subsequent to setting up that “there is none that doeth good” from Psalm 14:1, Paul utilizes statements from Psalms and Isaiah to ...read more

    On Mission For The King Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jul 14, 2025
     | 258 views

    After missing the point of who Jesus is and what He's doing, the disciples are sent on another mission trip. Here they learn about both the manner and the mindset of the mission.

    As we seek to minister for Christ here in and around Poolesville, as we support missionaries in other contexts, I think this same manner and mindset will be helpful. If you have you Bibles, open them to Luke 10. I’ll read the passage for us in order to help us gain a full picture of what’s ...read more

    Because of our tendency to pass quick and critical judgment on others, our Lord has chosen to address this issue. Chapter 7 verses 1-12 addresses an issue plaguing the religion of Jesus’ day and of ours, that of misdirected effort.

    What You See May Not Be The Truth Matthew 7:1-12 A while back, I read the very distressing account of an incident in the life of a young bachelor. He worked in an office where every year the boss gave each employee a turkey as a bonus for the holiday season. Of course, the bachelor could never ...read more
