  • Acting Good Or Good Actions?

    Contributed by Judith Hand on Feb 8, 2014
     | 7,055 views

    True religion is not acting good but doing good.

    ACTING GOOD …OR GOOD ACTIONS? Our passage in Isaiah seems contradictory at first… the prophet is told to tell the people they are in rebellion and sin even though it says “day after day they seek God out and seem eager to know his ways”! But God says they are a nation who ...read more

    Contributed by Rev Ken Shedenhelm on Feb 8, 2014
     | 4,810 views

    While we try to please God on our own terms, God wants us to live for Him. We call it a "fast" when we do without a self-serving behavior for a limited period of time, but what God calls a "fast" is a life dedicated to serving others.

     | 5,410 views

    1) True worship is persistent, not sporadic. 2) True worship is done for others, not for oneself. 3) True worship is beneficial, not futile.

    I have a confession to make. I haven’t eaten a tasty store-bought or restaurant-made pizza since coming to Canada. The crusts are consistently too dry or too doughy. The pepperoni is too greasy and too salty. And the pizza sauce is too sweet. It’s not as bad as the pizza I had in ...read more

  • Sabbath As Defiance

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Apr 26, 2015
     | 5,284 views

    The Sabbath is a transformative tradition, an antidote to anxiety. We are restless till we find our rest in God. We set aside our anxieties and busyness, our pursuit of more, and we recognize that our refuge is God alone.

    The President of local synagogue, and a close friend of mine, asked me if I knew the most sacred Jewish holy day. I said it must be either Passover or Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). He smiled and said, “No, it’s the Sabbath. It is the most important day in the Jewish ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,781 views

    Fasting seems to be out of vogue today. What is Biblical fasting? Why should we fast? What should our attitude be when we fast? What should we expect?

    Before we go over our memory Scriptures I want to go over a true example of a mistake versus sin as an example of what the difference is and why the Lord looks upon the two differently. Last week we introduced a new memory Scripture and I told you that the new memory Scripture was printed in your ...read more

    A plea for revival drawn from the words of Isaiah.

    “Is not this the fast that I choose: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the straps of the yoke, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke?

     | 8,003 views

    A CALL TO FAST IS A CALL TO RETURN TO OUR SPIRITUAL SENSES.

    The Bible is filled with examples of how prayer and fasting have brought the people of God into a closer relationship with God. God is immovable, but it is we who are making a move closer to God when we pray and fast. We can hear Him better both as an individual and as a church. Understand that our ...read more
