     | 6,520 views

    Our Lord reframes an ancient code, moving it from passive compliance to active obedience. He calls us to go to practice an unselfish standard of fairness/righteousness. This is what He did. And this is what He empowers us to do.

    James Cash Penny started a general merchandise store in Kemmerer, Wyoming in 1902, which he built into a multi-billion dollar enterprise on the guiding principle of the Golden Rule. For years J.C. Penny stores were called “Golden Rule stores”. It was Mr. Penny’s belief that ...read more

    We live in a world of shortcuts. They can be harmless or detrimental to our well-being.

    What should we do when we have to make an important decision? The Bible says, "Seek and you will find, ask and it will be given to you, knock and the door will be opened to you."

    Object: A coin and a fortune cookie. Scripture: Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. Matthew 7: 7 People do different things when they have a difficult decision to make. • Urim and thummim. Like dice. • Draw ...read more

  • Ask And Seek The Right Thing! Knock At The Right Door! Series

    Contributed by Ken Henson on Jul 22, 2013
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,106 views

    I've heard the exhortations to Ask, Seek and Knock in isolation from the Golden Rule. They are irrevocably connected. One concept leads to the other. Jesus points to the way God treats us in order to show us how treat each other.

    Matthew 7:7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. The standard message on this passage is, we need to ask, and when we ask God ...read more

  • The Road Less Traveled

    We are not all taking different roads to the same destination. And we will not get there by following the crowd. The road to eternity is, "The Road Less traveled."

She was running late and was going over the speed limit. Then she saw the dreaded red and blue lights in her rear view mirror ...read more

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 11, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,896 views

    Who you listen to matters. It determines who you belong to - who owns you. We can choose the easy road or the hard one, depending on who we listen to. Does it really matter what road we take. Absolutely!
