Rahab And The Spies

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Feb 11, 2007

Rahab lived in a doomed city, but she reached out in faith to the enemy, to become one of them, and find salvation.

As we continue our study of Joshua, and how to have a victorious Christian life-the first obstacle a person comes to is the world.

Journey From Freedom To Slavery Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Mar 14, 2013

The point of this whole Bible miniseries is to have the opportunity to see how even the ancient major stories in the Bible are relevant to us and reveal God's intentions toward all of us.

Many of us have stories of our ancestors don't we. Maybe it's the Grandpa that came to Canada with $5 in his pocket. Or a family member who fought in a famous war. And of course the parent who walked to and from school uphill everyday in 6 feet of snow. I never could figure out how it's uphill both ...read more

The Faith Of Rahab

Contributed by James Lee on Oct 31, 2012

In Joshua chapter 2 we meet this lady by the name of Rahab and what we find out about her is rather shocking and you might even ask…”How can such a person be placed in this list, along with men like Abraham!?”

Recently we looked at an unusual hero, in a man called Samson. He was listed in what we call the “Faith Hall of Fame” There is another unusual hero listed there… Her name is Rahab and she was not what we might choose to be a hero type for our kids or even ourselves. In Joshua ...read more

A Question Of Faith.

Contributed by Eugene Morell on Jan 15, 2012

This whole chapter makes us look at our faith as to whether our action based on our faith is enough evidence to convict us that we are a Christian.

A QUESTION OF FAITH? JOSHUA 2:1-7. Faith is a common denominator that everyone has. There is Natural & Spiritual faith. Spiritual faith comes from the Living God. Ephesians 2:8. For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourself, it is the gift of God. Our spiritual faith ...read more

Rahab Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jan 18, 2011

The story of Rahab teaches us something about the faithfulness and grace of God. Rahab stays in the city, trusting that God will keep his promise and she’s kept safe.
