    Usury & Extortion

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jan 15, 2024
     | 993 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

    Encouragement In The Face Of Problems

    Have you ever wished that someone had given you encouragement when you really needed it? A few words of encouragement can really make our day brighter. We see an example of this in the reading from 2 Thessalonians 1:1-4,11-12.

    Wisdom: What We Can Expect Series

     | 3,699 views

    Forewarned is forearmed. Wisdom not only guides us in our choices, it helps us anticipate what we may expect to see.

    Wisdom: What We Can Expect (Proverbs 24:7-12) 1. A lot of times folks get very superstitious about finding God’s will. And, more often than not, they want God’s will to be their will, and somehow make it so. 2. By the time Bobby arrived, the football game had already started. "Why ...read more

    A Heart For God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 30, 2015
    based on 7 ratings
     | 13,690 views

    Psalm 19 has been called the most majestic of David’s Psalms. It falls into two main sections dealing respectively with Creation and Covenant, with an application to follow. These seemingly distinct parts form one unified, progressive whole.

    A HEART FOR GOD. Psalm 19. In July 1994, Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 (formerly D/1993 F2) broke apart and collided with the far side of Jupiter. On that occasion I preached on “The heavens declare the glory of God” (Psalm 19:1), and wondered at the perfection of God’s creation. God placed the earth ...read more

    To begin with, please open your Bibles to Exodus 24:12…. And so, we note, God chose a people, the Israelites; they were freed from slavery in Egypt and called to Canaan, the Promised Land of milk and honey.

    Joseph, the women, Peter.

    FROM THE BURIAL OF JESUS TO THE EMPTY TOMB. Luke 23:50-56; Luke 24:1-12.

    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

    The wrong righteousness is unrighteousness and hence righteous mess.

    Philippians 3:9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.
