    If we want to interpret life and the decisions of life reasonably, we need to develop the Biblical virtue of wisdom, a wisdom that comes from adjusting to God's Word.

    Interpreting the Facts (Numbers 13:1-33) 1. Joe Friday: "Just the facts, mam." 2. A lot of what is presented as facts are really interpretations of fact. When we are taught interpretations of facts as actual facts, we become biased and blind to the difference between what we have been told and ...read more

    Victory Over Worries

    People become victims of GAD as a result of pathological worrying, People worry and people develop worry in two different forms according to research. Worries are stored in our minds as images and in verbal form.

    I do not know how you perceive, but to me, anything Bible teaches is not a giving us suggestions but a command. If we have learned to avoid unbiblical practices, our life would be much happier. The first step to finding an answer to your worry is knowing what is a concern and what is a worry. ...read more

    Spiritual Discernment

    Spiritual discernment seems to be something lacking in many of the people in America who identify themselves as Christians. They're decisions seem to be the same as those of their unsaved neighbors. Should this be so? What does the Bible say?

    Discernment - The act or process of exhibiting keen insight and good judgment.

    In the Anglican Church, we do not have altar calls, spelled “A-L-T-A-R”, but Jesus always issues an altar call, spelled “A-L-T-E-R”. He calls on us to change our lives for a better fit. He calls on us to change habits that drag us down.

    John 1:1-17 is John’s version of the nativity story. It doesn’t begin with shepherds and angels and a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a manger. John’s nativity story takes us back to the beginning of creation and time, and it echoes the creation story in Genesis. In ...read more

    Until Jesus returns and ushers in the eternal heaven, what is life like for God's children who are in heaven now?

    We have made note of the fact that God isn’t through with heaven. When a child of God dies, they pass into the immediate presence of our Lord and do go to heaven. But the heaven they go to is an intermediate heaven. Upon the return of our Lord, He will establish a new heaven and a new earth - ...read more
