    First, we must operate on ourselves, seeking out the sin that hinders us and leaving it with the Lord; and then, and only then, are we in a fit state to help the other.

    DO NOT JUDGE. Luke 6:36-42. “‘Ye all’ therefore be merciful, as your Father is merciful” (LUKE 6:36; cf. Romans 9:15). We are being called to be compassionate, to exercise grace towards those who are hostile to us. It was ‘when we were enemies’ that ‘we were reconciled to God by the death of ...read more

    If we really want the presence of Jesus we must put a demand upon him, He is always passing by but he will only come in where he is invited.

    II Ki 4:8 And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread. (KJV) THE PROPHET = THE WORD OF GOD constrained (KJV) 2388 chazaq (khaw-zak’); a primitive ...read more

    You Cannot Silence What Is Just And Right

     | 1,335 views

    Jesus healed on the Sabbath. Where in the Bible does it say that you cannot do that? The question of what you can and cannot do and when is the debate.

    It is the Sabbath, and Yeshua went to the synagogue as all pious Hebrews did in His day. Mark’s author sets up the event by telling us that “they” were watching Him, observing what Yeshua was going to do. Why are they watching Him? At this point in the Gospel, the leaders of the various sects of ...read more

    The seventh commandment seems to be irrelevant to our present generation. But God wants His people to be pure and Holy in all their dealings. So God cannot accept the immoral life. Aim at Holy Living with the Spirit of God.
