Faith-Running To Jesus Lesson 1 Series

Contributed by Elmer Towns on Jul 28, 2023

It is not our great faith in God, it is our faith in a great God.

INTRODUCTION “The Bible tells us of “faith-chasers” who surround us like a cloud. So let us lay aside any weight that slows us down, and any sin that entangles us, so we can run with endurance as “faith-chasers” the race before us, looking to Jesus our pace-setter who first gave us faith and ...read more

Don't Quit

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024

Our victory is assured because Christ was victorious. We are “more than conquerors through Him who loved us” (Romans 8:37). Quitting is a shortcut leading to failure. We can finish strong when we focus on Christ.

Opening illustration: In 1952 Florence Chadwick attempted to swim 26 miles from the coast of California to Catalina Island. After 15 hours, a heavy fog began to block her view, she became disoriented, and she gave up. To her chagrin, Chadwick learned that she had quit just 1 mile short of her ...read more

Questions Concerning Our Faith

Contributed by Grant Adams on May 7, 2024

Faith is the glue that holds our lives together.

You have heard me say from time to time how important our faith is in the teaching of the Bible. It is the same in the teaching of our Lord Jesus.

Faith

Contributed by Kevin Eckhart on May 29, 2024

‘biblical faith is not a vague hope grounded in imaginary, wishful thinking. Instead, faith is a settled confidence that something in the future – something that is not yet seen has been promised by God – will actually come to pass because God will bring is about’.

o Biblical faith is a confident trust in the eternal God who is all-powerful, infinitely wise, eternally trustworthy – and God who has revealed Himself in his word and in the person of Jesus Christ, whose promises have proven true from generation to generation and who will never leave nor forsake ...read more

Jehovah Jireh, My Provider

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jun 16, 2024

Today we look at the story of Genesis 22, and God's call to Abraham to sacrifice Isaac at Mt. Moriah. To fully understand the story, we need to look deep into Abraham's life, and see how God kept all His promises to Abraham, so we can see how he keeps His promises to us.

Jehovah Jireh, My Provider Good Morning. And a Happy Father’s Day. Today, we revisit Genesis 22, which, I will grant, that on the surface, seems to be a horrible Father’s Day reading. I skimmed through it 3 months ago in relation to Jesus comments about taking up His Cross. Today, we’ll look at ...read more
