"It's Time To Flip The Script”

Contributed by Bryan Beverly on Feb 17, 2015

This message reminds us that Christ wants us to emphasize giving vis-a-vis taking. The Lex Talionis (Exodus 21:18-36, Leviticus 24:17-21 and Deuteronomy 19:15-21) said 'Don't take too much". But Jesus' message (Luke 6:27-29) was "Don't give too little".

38“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39 But I say to you, Do not resist an evildoer. But if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other also; 40 and if anyone wants to sue you and take your coat, give your cloak as well; 41 and ...read more

The Real Day Of The Lord

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 10, 2022

The Biblical term "day of the Lord" is a lot more involved than most folks believe.

Thirty-Third Sunday in Course 2022 The phrase “the day of the Lord” appears in the OT thirty-five times. But what does it mean?
