    Do you love that material object more then God? Do you allow your excuses to win out, instead of being obedient? Matthew 25 starting at verse 32

    ‘GIVING OF YOURSELF” I remember once a friend had told me that she had scrimped her pennies to purchase a heavy wool winter coat.

    We don't witness because we see only downsides; yet many will go to their graves without faith unless lay people preach the Gospel by word and deed

    Monday of 10th Week in Course 7 June 2010 You Will Be My Witnesses Why do we hesitate to boldly share our faith with those we meet? I think the reason is that we see only personal downsides to the action. Elijah spoke the word of God to the king of Israel. We’ve forgotten the king, but we ...read more

    Separate Yourself

    Contributed by Timothy Brewington Ii on Sep 9, 2003
    based on 94 ratings
     | 50,189 views

    We must separate ourselves from whatever is not like God. We must also separate ourselves unto God. This means that we most make ourselves only available to God. God uses people that have mad themselves available to him.

    2 Corinthians 6:17 "Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord...” God has always required His people to separate. He told Israel, “be ye holy, for I am Holy.” God knows that we become like, whoever and whatever we spend the most time with. God wants us to be like Him, ...read more

    The story of King Saul’s utter demise unfolds in 1 Samuel 15. The man who stood head and shoulders above all the people is imploding like a skyscraper building with the walls blown out.

    The bigger they are the harder they fall. It is dramatic to see a skyscraper building brought to the ground. Dynamite blows out the walls and the building collapses to the ground. What once filled the skyline becomes reduced to a pile of rubble. The story of King Saul’s utter demise unfolds in 1 ...read more

    A look at some of the ways we try to deceive others, ourselves and God.

    Last week I mentioned how violated we felt when we had something stolen, when someone took what belonged to us. I think that if we were honest today we’d all agree that there is a very similar feeling of violation that comes when we feel that we have been deceived. Most relationships can take ...read more

    Looking For The Escape Clause?...the Good Samaritan

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 12, 2022
     | 3,013 views

    The story of the Good Samaritan was Jesus' way of blasting our excuses for trying to get out of obeying God to demonstrate compassion for the needy. An escape clause is a device in a contract to elude responsibility!

JOKE 1: A lawyer died and went to Heaven. “There must be some mistake,” the lawyer argued. “I’m too young to die. I’m only 55.” “Fifty-five?” said Saint Peter. “No, according to our ...read more

    Putting others before ourselves will bring us to our knees. Learning to give ourselves away is also the first step to a deeper experience of true joy.

    There is something that stirs deeply within us when a man or woman gives up their life for another. A few decades ago Roger Rosenblatt wrote a moving tribute in Time Magazine. It was about a passenger on Air Florida Flight 90 that crashed into the Potomac River. The nameless 50-some-year old man ...read more

    If we want to live in resurrection power, we must consider ourselves saints (set apart from sin unto God) and commit ourselves to the Lord.

    On March 19, 2005, when a resident at an extended care facility in British Columbia, Canada, died, the medical personnel did what they usually did.

    Why is it that we come to church? Why do we open ourselves up to the possibility that we might have to confront ourselves, to repent and even to change?

    How many of you have heard someone say, “Why do I have to go to church? Can’t I be just as good of a Christian at home, reading the Bible, doing good deeds, praying by myself, maybe watching a favorite preacher TV in the comfort of my own living room? Why should I bother getting up on Sunday ...read more
