The Pride Of Thine Heart Will Bring Thee Down

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 4, 2022

Edom was proud of its accomplishments, but in the long run, God would bring her down. Whether they are a nation, a business, a church, or a family, those in positions of authority should not be overly self-assured.

Obadiah is the shortest book of the Bible. It is titled The Vision of Obadiah as it prophesies the judgment to fall on the nation of Edom. The Edomites were descendants of Esau which made them related to the children of Israel (Genesis 25:19-27:45). Because of Edom's defiance of God, their ...read more

Hooked On A Title

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Aug 9, 2011

Jesus did not anoint the head of the disciples - he did not call for a bottle of Holy Oil - he did not ask them to get in a Prayer Line. This may not be apparent at first, but think about it - your feet carry a enormous load.

Humility Of Christ

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on May 24, 2024

In our text we see the Lord Jesus loving men who did not deserve it. Luke (22:24) tells us that at the Lord’s Supper, just after Jesus announced that one of them would betray Him, the disciples got into a dispute about which of them was the greatest.

Opening illustration: We all can relate to Linus in the “Peanuts” cartoon strip when he shouts in frustration, “I love mankind; it’s people I can’t stand!” It’s easy to love the human race in the abstract, but when it comes to loving specific irritating people that I can’t avoid, the process ...read more

Dare We Be Great

Hypothetically, if you were in a supermarket and someone asked you, “what does it mean to be great and would that be something you desire of yourself?”

Would our answer be any different if we ...read more
