    Opportunity For Thanks

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Oct 24, 2023
     | 1,262 views

    His sacrifice of thanksgiving meant that he wanted everything about his new life to be an expression of thanks for all the Lord had done for him.

Last week Rob spoke about the enemies of ...read more

    Setting Our Minds On Divine Things

     | 886 views

    Jesus taught his disciples to set their minds on divine things such as denying themselves and taking up their crosses to follow him. He added to that statements about "losing" our lives and to not be ashamed of the Gospel. What does all this mean?

    THERE ARE PASSAGES IN THE BIBLE THAT CAN CREATE FEAR AND POSSIBLY DISTRESS DUE TO THEIR BLUNT, BUT HIDDEN MEANING. IN LUKE 14:26, WE ARE TOLD THAT “IF ANYONE COMES TO ME AND DOES NOT HATE FATHER AND MOTHER, WIFE AND CHILDREN, BROTHERS AND SISTERS—YES, EVEN THEIR OWN LIFE—SUCH A PERSON CANNOT BE MY ...read more

    Integrity is the act of doing the right thing at all times and in all situations, whether or not anyone is watching. It takes discipline and determination to live a life of integrity

    “Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil. And he still maintains his integrity, though you incited me against him to ruin him without any reason.” “Skin for skin!” Satan ...read more

    Know that life comes from God and that there is judgement after death, but Jesus has already settled that problem for us.

    These are the words spoken by Jesus. They are not words that an ordinary man would say. • No one dare to say he is from God, and that if you believe Him you have eternal life. • No one would say that when the dead hears His voice, they will live. Today if someone goes around saying ...read more
