"Peter, Feed My Sheep” (2 Of 21)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022

Jesus told Peter, "Feed my sheep." Every housewife can relate somewhat to this, as she feeds her family. Also most housewives know the value of a well balanced diet.

For example, they know they can feed their families peanut butter sandwiches every now and then, but if they did this all the time: • The family would soon dread coming to the table to eat • They would also suffer nutritionally, because this kind of a diet is not going to supply them the nutrition ...read more

To Be Like Jesus!

Contributed by Melvin Newland on May 5, 2025

In the Bible, God tells us that WE have ‘role models’ too. In 2 Thessalonians 3:9 Paul says that he & his friends made an effort to be “models for you to follow.” And Paul repeated that idea many times for those early Christians:

The Mind Of The Lord Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Aug 25, 2013

God transcends words. He is beyond language. We cannot reduce Him to our experience. God is unique and different from anything in this world. He is massive, boundless, beyond all imagining. God is His own category.

I’d like to explain to you Who God is…but I can’t. Isaiah speaks of God as so massive, so far above us, that we can barely take in who He is. God surpasses human comprehension. Some people think they can put God “in a box”; that is, have Him fully figured out. How ...read more
