Contributed by Efren V. Narido on Nov 25, 2006

But if we believe that it is the Sovereign God who gave good things and bad things – adversity, or whatever trial and difficulty, should we not accept whatever He allows or even causes to happen in our life?

This is a message about how we're taught unbelief, how we’re taught to question God’s goodness in all situations. One of the reasons the Lord is starting to show me some things about how we teach unbelief is because in those areas where there is wrong belief, there is no faith. In those areas where ...read more

Job's Wife Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 1, 2021

Because of his great novel, War and Peace, Leo Tolstoy became one of the most famous Russians that ever lived. His fame and fortune did not bring him happiness, however, because of his wife. They were about as compatible as a porcupine and a bubble. She loved luxury, and he hated it. She loved ...read more

Job 2

And how, even though he suffered, he did not blame God, but chose to worship God instead. Today, Satan gives him another test designed to test his loyalty to God, and we will ...read more
