    Fate, Failure And Fig Trees (And Why Bad Things Happen To Good People)

    Contributed by David Smith on Oct 17, 2007
    based on 11 ratings
     | 4,670 views

    It’s the age-old theological question - why do bad things happen to good people? Jesus, as ever, doesn’t give us the response we expect.

    They say that philosophy deals with two sorts of questions: * Questions to which everybody knows the answer (eg. Do I really exist?). * Questions to which nobody knows the answer (eg. Why do I exist?). Religious teachers tend to deal the same sorts of questions, perhaps particularly questions ...read more

    If we are going to be different, it needs to be backed up with gentleness, goodness, faith, humility and self control.

    GENTLENESS Benevolence, kindness Gentleness can be defined as tender concern for others, reflected in a desire to treat others gently, just as the Lord treats all believers. Jesus commended gentleness in the Beatitudes. In the first three, he blesses the poor in spirit, those who mourn, and the ...read more

    Dust It Off!

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jul 4, 2024
     | 1,132 views

    Jesus teaches sound advice to "dust it off" when faced with rejection, hostility, and resistance to the Good News that we share!

    JESUS HAD MANY CHALLENGES IN HIS MINISTRY AND FACED UNPRECIDENTED REJECTION. AFTER HEALING A MAN BY DRIVING OUT LEGIONS OF DEMONS, LUKE 8:37, TELLS US THAT “…ALL THE PEOPLE FROM THAT TERRITORY ASKED JESUS TO GO AWAY, BECAUSE THEY WERE TERRIBLY AFRAID. SO JESUS GOT INTO THE BOAT AND LEFT.” WHEN ...read more

    Listen, the tongue isn’t all bad .... It can do great good. And in Colossians 4:2-17 we see 3 ways in which we can use our tongues for good. (Jesus is Enough - part 8)

    Jesus Is Enough - part 8 (Col 4:2-17) “There Should Be ND in Our Speech” Jesus IS enough!!! Jesus IS enough!!! >>> Do YOU believe that? Do YOU live that?

     | 41,164 views

    Everyone of us are examples to non-Christians. Some are good examples and some are bad examples. Ananias & Sapphira were included in the Bible because of their bad example; Paul shows us what a good example, a man of integrity, looks like!

    If you want to have the kind of a church Like the kind of a church you like, You needn’t slip your clothes in a grip, And start on a long, long hike. You’ll only find what you left behind, For there’s nothing that’s really new. It’s a knock at yourself when you knock your church – For the it ...read more

    Jesus shares several pieces of Good News. One is that God is with us in the midst of tragedies and scarcity. Another piece of Good News is that Happiness can be experienced in the midst of the struggles of life. Luke’s sermon on the plain tells us how.

    Luke 6:17-23 “God Loves All the Little Children” INTRODUCTION “Work hard!” “Dream Big!” “The world is your oyster to crack and grab the pearl.” We grow up hearing these phrases and others like them. “America is the land of opportunity,” we are told. “Anyone can become president.” We hear ...read more

    A Good Turn Daily is easier said than done - make sure you take care of your fitness and prayerlife first. Create for yourself a daily personal victory, because we need tons of perishable wreaths to feel good.

    NIKE - Shoe - Goddess of victory - well known to the people of Corinth - A little odd for us at church, because typically we would prefer humbleness and such, Jesus teaching: many who are first will be last, and the last will be first. - 1John 5:4 What does our faith give us overcoming the world? - ...read more

    Build a memorial of the great things that God has done for you in your life. He has been good to us. He has blessed us beyond measure. When we didn’t deserve it God was good to us.

    Memorial Day is a public legal holiday in the United States of America and among its armed forces worldwide. It honors U.S. citizens who have died in war fighting for the freedom that we now enjoy. This day was originally set aside to honor those who died in the Civil War and then later on it was ...read more

    God gave all good things for us to enjoy. However God gave boundaries for all the good things. Sex and sexaual intimacy were divinely desinged to be enjoyed within the confines of the covenant commitment of marriage. This commandments is clear be faith

    Intro: If you were to talk to the normal person on the street about marital faithfulness they would probably laugh you off the sidewalk. Yet God shows us again and again that the roadway to a healthy marriage must be paved with sexual fidelity. It is amazing to me that God can take math and turn ...read more

    Narnia: Is The Lion Safe?

    Contributed by Pat Cook on Dec 8, 2005
    based on 7 ratings
     | 2,419 views

    This is an article I wrote for an online journal. It’s a devotional based on the question asked about Aslan: Is he safe? The answer was : No, but he’s good. That’s God’s plans for us too: not safe but good.

    Is the Lion Safe? I’ve been a fan of the Chronicles of Narnia for several years now. What’s funny about it is that it was recommended to me by a friend of mine who is decidedly not a believer. That’s funny because Narnia was written by a man who worked hard to make his Christian faith known ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,120 views

    The point of pleasure is to point us towards heaven - a Good God always makes good things - Sex, Drink, Food, etc. Satan wants to twist them - But if we would have joy, we must learn to choose God.

    A rich young ruler came to Jesus asking him what “GOOD THING” he could do to inherit eternal life, and the truth is that there is no “good thing” that one can do to inherit eternal life!

    Did you know that bringing the good out and someone is a harvest.. and bringing a smile to someone's face is a harvest.. Did you know that Complementing someone is a planting a seed and someone feeling good about themselves as a result of it..is a harvest

    It's Harvest Time! Gal. 6:7-10 Msg. 7-8 Don’t be misled: No one makes a fool of God. What a person plants, he will harvest. *The person who plants selfishness, ignoring the needs of others—ignoring God!—harvests a crop of weeds. *All he’ll have to show for his life is ...read more
