     | 12,040 views

    Sure you would go to the Prodigal’s party. Sure after he slept around, left his wife, spent all the money, you would accept him back completely. Or would you really?

    We are told that God knows everything, but what does it mean when Jesus states He does not know when He will return? A closer look reveals this verse to be a source of great encouragement and blessing, not controversy.

    Background: Ill: We get quite frustrated as human beings when we hear the following three words, “I don’t know.” “Doctor, will I need surgery?” (I don’t know) “Honey, do you know when you will be home?” (I don’t know) “Boss, am I ...read more

    The Bible not only teaches that Jesus is God, it teaches that He is King over us and over His creation.

    Over the summer we looked at what the Bible had to say about false teaching and teachers in our series Testing the Spirits. This led us into a study of the person of Jesus Christ as we looked at what the Bible had to say about His preeminence and supremacy. We looked at verses like Colossians ...read more

    As Jesus came to earth as a baby, destined to grow up and be the Lamb of God to be sacrificed for the sins of the world, He voluntarily limited the use of His divine attributes.

Jesus, who had come to earth as God and King, put on a body. He was God, but He restricted the independent use of His deity, ...read more
