Creation Or Evolution?

Contributed by Pierre Naude on May 6, 2011

Many Christians struggle with Evolutionary Science apparently contradicting the Bible. As we look at the evidence again, as some scientists reach what they think is the pinnacle of their achievement and knowledge, we find that the theologian has been sit

Creation or Evolution? Gen 1 “In the beginning, God …” says the Bible. “In the beginning, goo …” say the evolutionists. Scientist Harold Hill, rather tongue-in-cheek, suggests that we have come “from goo to you by way of the zoo”! Our school ...read more

Fingerprints Of God

Contributed by Ian Whitmore on Aug 1, 2024

To God you are everything. His fingerprints are all over you. He created you. He formed you. He took the time to make who you are. Every single piece of you. Not just a couple here and there. He made all of you.

Text: Psalm 19 Each of us has a fingerprint. If you look at the end of your fingers you can see these outlines and shapes that make up our fingerprint. Those fingerprints reveal who we are because no two fingerprints are alike. My fingerprint is completely different from everyone in this room ...read more

Keeping Order Among Our Passions Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 2, 2009

Christ is our shepherd, because we are prone as sheep to wander about in pursuit of pleasure, and be devoured by our passions.

Tuesday of 4th Week of Easter May 5, 2009 “If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.” So Jesus talks about sheep. As the Jews of His day–and ours, for that matter–saw it, Jesus never talked plainly. But that wasn’t Jesus’ problem with the Jews, or us, for that matter. Our problem is that Jesus ...read more

All Believers Can Be Bearers Of The Word Of God

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 10, 2023

Joel gives the judgement: it’s because of the sin of the Israelites themselves. Just the opposite of the faith and obedience of Mary that Jesus wants in His disciples.

Saturday of the 27th week in Course 2023 I think this brief Gospel gives us words that either Jesus or His Mother could have proclaimed. As usual, there’s a big crowd around Jesus, perhaps hundreds clamoring for attention, for encouragement, for healing or forgiveness. A woman raises her voice and ...read more

Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Mar 6, 2007

Ask yourself two profound questions: Why did God kill Mahlon for marrying Ruth? Why didn’t God kill Boaz for marrying Ruth? It took two husbands to bring God’s grace to Ruth. Jesus is both the Son of Man and the Son of God!

Part 2 - Genesis 20:1-18 - Scanning For A Trojan Horse! Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Aug 14, 2010

Genesis 20 in my Bible teaches me THAT BELIEVERS HAVE TROJAN HORSES. I knew that already from other parts of the Bible. Satan is the original HACKER and Adam and Eve fell for the Trojan Horse, installing unwanted data into the system.
