    Becoming A Christian Philosopher

    Contributed by Don Campbell on May 15, 2023
     | 925 views

    The word “philosophy” means a love of wisdom. Paul said, "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ” (Col 2:8). There must be two kinds of philosophers.

     | 839 views

    If I may make a CS Lewis'esc observation about humanity: No one is really old. Every person ever born was always intended to be forever young, and has a soul which feels a natural inclination to always exist, thus aging and death is a profound surprise to us.

    Rooted In Jesus

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 1,221 views

    The fact that believers are in a state of being complete in Christ indicates that there is nothing of a higher spiritual blessing to be found anywhere else including, but not limited to, this false Gnostic philosophy found in Colosse.

    WHY WEREN'T THE SAILORS BOTHERED EARLIER? Because they believed in small, provincial gods. - Jonah 1:7, 10. - One of the unusual things about this verse is that it tells in verse 10 that Jonah had told them previously that he was running away from God.

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 11, 2022
     | 2,947 views

    Now if love is supposed to be the greatest, and it is, then why did Jesus’s preaching about love in Luke 4:21 -30 provoke those in the congregation so badly? It provoked them so badly, that they wanted to throw Him off a cliff!

    LOVE WITHOUT LIMITS Text: I Corinthians 13:1- 13 1 Corinthians 13:1-13  If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.  (2)  And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I ...read more

    God is “on the move”. The “LORD of Heaven’s Armies” wants His message shouted out loud, a message that says “My love is passionate and strong.”

    Jesus performs another miracle. He has performed so many but why this one and for whom was it intended?

    Five small barley loaves and two small fish, and 5000 plus hungry mouths to feed! This is nothing for our God who is without limits! Our text today gives a picture of a man that performs a miracle that is impossible in human eyes, that is until you factor in the man and His Father, in whom nothing ...read more
