Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 14, 2010

I know people who want to mix the world with worship, but when Jesus said "You are the salt of the earth" (Matthew 5:13), He certainly wasn't referring to what happened to Lot's wife.

Where Is Your Tent Pitched?

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 18, 2022

For example: (1) SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO MAKE PROFESSIONAL DECISIONS Consider the many decisions an umpire has to make calling “balls” or “strikes” in a baseball game.

Tale Of Two Fathers (Father’s Day)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 18, 2022

Abraham and Lot were both saved men, but Lot was like many of the fathers today. The way Lot lived his life, it is difficult to believe he was saved.

Abram had been accompanied by Lot in all his wanderings. But a separation must take place between them. Abram and his seed were to be kept distinct from all other races, as from him the promised Messiah was to spring. This also was brought about by what seemed a series of natural circumstances, ...read more

While in Egypt, we didn’t see Abram erect monuments to or call upon his God - instead he took what he felt was the smartest, most ...read more
