Series: Wow! Whose Beautiful Young Daughter Is That? (Part 7) I Will Not Marry Ruth And Pollute My Family – She’s Not My Type

Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 9, 2020

Prejudice causes us to treat others as inferior which is inappropriate for a Christian. The Holy Spirit does not discriminate. God is no respecter of person. Jesus mingled with sinners. For the next of kin to reject Ruth because he did not want to stain his honor was prejudicial.

Fellowshipping With The Father And The Son - Part 4

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Jul 16, 2020

God has placed clues about Himself in His creation for everyone to see. As one finds a clue and responds to it, God reveals more about Himself, eventually leading the person to Himself.

Review (1 John 1:5 NKJV) This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. The imagery or concept of God as "light" pictures God's self-revelation (cf. John 8:12; 9:5; 12:35, 36). The truth of the matter is ...read more

A Lying Tongue

Contributed by James Dina on Jul 29, 2020

We Are Family Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Jan 24, 2018
