    We are told in Hebrews 11: 6, “without faith it is impossible to please God.” It is not according to your fortune, your fame, and friends, but according to your faith in pleasing God. Jesus put a premium on faith.

    "What does it take to really please God?" Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him. The only way you can please God is by faith. What does that really mean? We ...read more

The billfold represents the financial resources that we earn or are given to us. The Bible represents the faith that we proclaim. Now, keeping in mind the meanings of these ...read more

    We treat the Word of God like an All-You-Can-Eat-Buffet. We pick up and take the things that appeal to us, but leave behind and untouched things that challenge us. Why have 10 Commandments when you can enjoy only 8?

    When I was in college, there was a restaurant that we loved to go to. It was an all you could eat type of place, which explains why I look the way I look today. We would go and stand in line in the buffet and pick all those things we wanted to eat -- shrimp, crab, clams, hushpuppies, French ...read more

In Romans 3:28, Paul specifically says that a person is justified by faith without the works of the law. Yet we are told by James ...read more
