Ruth's Romance Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 4, 2021

The entire book of Ruth revolves around the romance of ordinary people. That is one of its purposes for being a part of the Bible. It is God's stamp of approval on the ordinary person as an instrument of His plan of history.

Urgent Atonement Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on Mar 17, 2008

The cross is hideous. It’s not a pretty thing we hang on our walls. It’s not a fine piece of jewelry hanging from our neck. It is the most brutal instrument of death ever conceived by the cruel mind of man.

Each week we have seen an example of urgency. But this morning is different. In this morning’s passage, our Lord shows a sense of ...read more

The Old Testament prophets used the imagery of a stump as a prophetic promise. Jesus Christ is Lord our Righteousness and he came to save sinners. Jesus takes our punishment and becomes the LORD Our Righteousness, (‘Jehovah-tsidkenu).

The glory days for that tree that is now just a stump lie in the past not the future. You would probably not look at that stump and think that great and wonderful days of fruitful ...read more
