All truth about God must be revealed by God – and can only be known by a person’s heart

"The things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God" (1Cor. 2:11).

Exceeding Expectations Series

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Jun 16, 2023

Jesus said that our righteousness must exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees. This means that He wants us to exceed the spiritual expectations prescribed by the Law; as we are to strive for excellence in our walk with God.

A contractor in Mexico was hired to build a Catholic Church, but he used cheap materials in order to make more money. He reasoned that the quality of the materials did not matter, so long as the ...read more

The Promise Of Justification Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Oct 19, 2018

In Galatians 3:15-18 four reasons are given for affirming the superiority of the covenant of promise: God presents its 1) Confirmation (Gal. 3:15), its 2) Christ-centeredness (Gal. 3:16), its 3) Chronology (Gal. 3:17), and its 4) Completeness (Gal. 3:18).

Many of the delightful things that we anticipate in our lives are based on promises. We enter into relationships with people we care about and in broader organizations through promises. The word “promise” itself is filled with hopeful realities. We love it when someone makes a promise. It has the ...read more

Contributed by David Dykes on Sep 5, 2013
