Justice And Righteousness In Proverbs

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 20, 2023

The book of Proverbs often has justice and righteousness together, but why? What can we learn from these two vital attributes?

Wisdom has many facets. Today we are going to consider justice. Justice means to do right, live right, and practice righteous behavior. Character is the foundation of the Christian life and behavior is the tangible expression of the same life. Wisdom is demonstrated in one’s behavior. I. THE WISE ...read more

Liberty And Grace

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 20, 2023

Does grace mean that we are free to do whatever we want, even sin? Let's see what the Bible says about this in Romans 6.

There is a certain group of Christianity today that says that since we are under grace, we are free to live however we want, even if we live in sin. In other words, grace allows you to live in sin! This has always been a problem, even back during the Apostle Paul’s day. And so, he deals with this ...read more

Life Without God

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 22, 2023

While the people of the world live without God every day, what would it be like for a Christian to live without God? Solomon gives us the answer from the book of Ecclesiastes.

I was blessed to grow up in a Christian home. I can’t imagine what life would be like without God. But there was a man in history who chose to live his life without God. He was the wisest man who ever lived, yet he did the most foolish thing in the world. Solomon. What would life be like without ...read more

Living A Grace-Filled Life

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 22, 2023

Grace is not a nebulous thing. Grace actually teaches us how to live. Do you want to be a grace-filled Christian? Then you need to follow Titus 2:11-12.

I’ve seen teens grow up and leave God. It's actually a very common thing today. Titus 2:11-12 explain that grace teaches us how to live. We need more grace-filled Christians. I see in verse 12 two main actions that must occur for us to live a grace-filled life. 1. A PURPOSEFUL DENYING ...read more

Living With Purpose

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 28, 2023

What can we learn from young Daniel? We know he "purposed in his heart," but what does that mean? And how can we do what he did?

It all happened so fast. Before the boy realized what was going on, he had been ripped out of his home. His family could not stop the soldiers from taking him. He had been chosen as one of the prime suspects to be taken to Babylon to stand before the king. With tears in his ears, the boy watches as ...read more

Looking Like Christ

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 28, 2023

What does it mean that we are made in the "image" and "likeness" of God? How can we look like Christ in our Christian lives?

When it comes to replicas, there’s nothing that’s been replicated more than expensive watches. There are entire websites that exist simply to sell you a replica Rolex watch. These watches look like the real deal—they even have the Rolex logo—but actually they were made in China and aren’t worth ...read more

Paul The Church Planter

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 28, 2023

The Apostle Paul is probably the greatest church planter in the history of the church. What can we learn from him, and how should we implement it into our modern times?

It is estimated that the Apostle Paul traveled a total of 17,285 miles! It is the equivalent of going from Jerusalem to San Francisco and then back to New York City. During his three missionary journeys alone, Paul covered some 8,000 miles by land and sea. Paul was a preacher. His passion was to ...read more

Put God's Fear First

Contributed by Paul Robinson on May 17, 2023

What is the "fear of the Lord" all about? How can we display this fear in our lives?

The word “beginning” means “the first.” If you want godly wisdom, you must put God’s fear first. The fear of the Lord is simply a holy awe of God; it is a reverence for who He is. Without this fear, you cannot attain godly wisdom, for it is the beginning of such wisdom. This verse here tells us ...read more

Ready To Heed

Contributed by Paul Robinson on May 17, 2023

The word "heed" is a biblical word that we don't use today. So what does it mean, and how does it apply to our lives now?

What exactly does the word “heed” mean? It is more than hearing (Psa. 119:9) It is more than agreeing (Hos. 4:10) It is more than teaching (Josh. 22:5) It is more than honoring (II Kings 10:31) So what is heeding? It is remembering to use, following what is said, and making that a rule for conduct. ...read more

Ready Too Late

Contributed by Paul Robinson on May 17, 2023

Is it possible to "miss the boat" when it comes to doing something for God? That's exactly what happened to Israel when it was time to enter the Promised Land.

The twelve spies were sent into the Promised Land as a reconnaissance team. This was the big day, the day Israel had been waiting for. This was the reason God brought them out of Egypt and why they made the long trek through the wilderness. The time had come for Israel to go into the land of ...read more

Rebuilding The Altar Of Sacrifice

Contributed by Paul Robinson on May 17, 2023

How do we as Christians become "acceptable sacrifices" to God?

Sacrifice is a word we don’t like. To sacrifice our time, money, our very lives, is a hard thing. But it is important. There are troops overseas right now who are sacrificing themselves; many have already given their lives. Many Christians have set aside the altar of sacrifice and replaced it ...read more

Revival Looks Like Turning

Contributed by Paul Robinson on May 17, 2023

Revival is far more simple than we often think, but that doesn't mean it's easy.

Turning is something we do every day. We turn to get out of bed, we turn to go in and out of rooms, we turn on the road, we turn to greet people. Turning is such a natural thing that we don’t even notice we are doing it. In Psalm 85, some conscious turning is taking place. God is turning from His ...read more

How The Bible Moves Us To Praise Series

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Jan 17, 2023

For the Christian, God’s Word should lead to praise. Along with prayer, service, and witnessing, praise should be an active part of the Christian life. As with all of these qualities, praise is connected to the Bible.

God promised the Israelites that He would lead them out of bondage and into the Promised Land. How sad that they did not believe His words until after they saw victory over the Egyptians. For the Christian, God’s Word should lead to praise. Along with prayer, service, and witnessing, praise ...read more

How The Spirit Works

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Jan 17, 2023

How does the Holy Spirit work in your life? What can you do to make sure His work is effective?

For the Holy Spirit to work in your life, first you must be saved. Also, for the Holy Spirit to work in your life, there are two things you must not do: --Quench not the Spirit (I Thess. 5:19) Matthew Henry stated, “Quench not the Spirit (v.19), for it is this Spirit of grace and supplication that ...read more

Is There A Word From The Lord? Series

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Jan 17, 2023

Does the Bible really have the answer to everything we are facing today?

Zedekiah was the last king of Judah. These were dark days for God’s people. The Northern Kingdom of Israel had already gone into captivity, and Judah was on the precipice of the same fate. King Nebuchadnezzar had made Zedekiah king of Judah in the place of Coniah, Zedekiah’s uncle, who had only ...read more
