    Imagine one being divine for a couple of weeks. Not like Jesus Christ, who as Second Person of the Trinity emptied Himself of everything to become man, all the way to a cross.

    Twenty-Fourth Sunday in Course 2022 One of the critical prophetic statements in the OT is in the book of Hosea (11:9). Hosea hears God tell him about the divine intention toward the kingdom of Israel: “I will not. . .destroy Ephraim. For I am God and not man–the Holy One among you–and I will not ...read more

    I love this story! It’s a story of incredible, undeserved kindness. We live in a harsh world, and while there are stories of kindness out there, it’s far too uncommon. The world will show kindness to its own, but we are called to show kindness to anyone and everyone, even our enemies. But why?

    1. Mephibosheth Who was Mephiboshet? —Background: II Sam. 4:4 —He was a cripple. Our culture has changed certain words, such as “lame” or “dumb.” Mephibosheth was a cripple, that is, he was lame. —He was Jonathan’s son. As you’ll recall, Jonathan was David’s best friend. He deserved death, ...read more

    Is the evidence of God’s existence visible? How would we discuss this with an atheist?

    Is the evidence of God’s existence visible? An ancient songwriter wrote: “The heavens tell of the glory of God; And their expanse declares the work of His hands. Day to day pours forth speech, And night to night reveals knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words; Their voice is not heard. ...read more

    The crowd in Jerusalem that day was made up of ordinary people, people like you, people like me.

    I wonder how many people in the crowd who shouted for Barabbas had also been in the crowd that shouted “Hosanna” a week before. Crowds had followed Jesus throughout his ministry. Crowds pushed their way into the little house in Capernaum so that the only way a paralyzed man could get to Jesus was ...read more

     | 2,356 views

    Peter's attempt at walking on water shows us two powerful lessons about our own faith!

    FAITH REQUIRES FEARLESSNESS! FAITH CALLS FOR US TO PUT AWAY OUR FEARS AND TO EMBRACE RADICAL OBEDIENCE SO THAT WE CAN TAKE OUR FIRST STEPS AWAY FROM “SELF” AND HEAD IN THE DIRECTION GOD WANTS TO LEADS US.

    Usury & Extortion

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jan 15, 2024
     | 992 views

    Why do western banks engage in usury and extortion? Why do Christians go along with it without trying to change this practice?

    One of the earliest principles of money lending is a law against usury. If you lend money to any of My people who are poor among you, you shall not be like a moneylender to him; you shall not charge him interest. (Exodus 22:25 NKJV) This is the exact opposite of how western banks operate today. ...read more
