Paul was a great sufferer of all kinds of unjust pain, and it was not because of sin, but because he was a servant of Christ.

One of the good things to come out of suffering is this: It forces those who cannot see any sense in it to grapple with the mystery, and strive to squeeze some meaning out of it.

The Light Of The World

Contributed by Larry Grant on Dec 15, 2024

Mark is the only writer to record the healing of the of the deaf/mute and the healing of the blind at Bethsaida. John only teaches about the man born blind. What ties these three lessons together is that the Bible records Jesus using His spittle to heal them.

Responding To Unfulfilled Prayer Series

Contributed by Kamalanathan Francis on Jun 8, 2021

In this present pandemic crisis, many are pondering on these questions. I prayed to God for healing, restoration, for growth... but my prayers were not answered at least not as expected. Does God decide not to hear my prayers? Is he despising me?

Beloved in Christ, God has given us the authority (John1:12) to become his child, whereby, to exercise the authority: to pray and to live in the fulfillment of his plan.
