    Can A Man Resist God Almighty? Series

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Dec 15, 2015
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,976 views

    Can a man resist God's laws? Can he resist God's grace? Two different questions...

    Can a man resist God? Now that too, on the surface, seems like an easy question to answer. God’s Word has been published lo these many years. The Judaeo-Christian value system has been proclaimed all over. Why, the very creation cries out about who God is and how He ought to be feared! ...read more

    Good Versus Evil

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Dec 16, 2015
     | 5,440 views

    We want to make real changes in our lives, but many of us are looking for a magic pill to solve all of our problems. We have to open ourselves to the wonderful and unpredictable Spirit that is flowing so freely and so full of life all around us.

    The first seven chapters of the Book of Romans have focused on the power of sin in our lives, and they have set the stage for chapter 8 by discussing Paul’s ideas about sin. Our reading today from Romans 8:1-11 is an entrance into friendly territory. It talks about the Holy Spirit, which was ...read more

     | 6,877 views

    How does the Bible change the life of one who reads, studies, applies and obey it?

    We have considered how the Bible is inspired. We talked about how our Bible came to us as it is today and how the early church determined which writings were inspired by God and which ones were not with the Apostolic test: Is the testimony tied to the Apostles? Is it endorsed by the Apostles? And ...read more

     | 5,716 views

    James discusses the external evidence of one's salvation.

    Faith is one of the great concepts of our Christian experience. Yet, some have pressed this to an extreme by implying that it makes no difference how one lives - faith is all that matters. What I am referring to is what is referred to by some as “easy believism.” Easy believism ...read more

    Every single one of us will find it necessary to offer the courage of endurance throughout our lives. The easiest way for evil to win is not through bombs or bullets, but through the slow erosion of commitment and courage to stand against the current.

One day an atheist moved into the house next door. Over time he became irritated at the little old lady. Every morning he would step out onto his ...read more

    In the Christian life faith and works go together like inhaling and exhaling. Billy Graham stated it in these terms: Faith is taking the Gospel in; works is taking the Gospel out." Updated September 2018

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,304 views

    Not only do we have a God given purpose to fulfill while on earth, believers have the power of the Holy Spirit to enable us to succeed because Christ is risen!

    What exactly did Jesus mean? Admittedly, when we think of the works Christ performed while on earth, they are pretty hard to top. Raising people from the dead is a pretty magnificent work I doubt any one of us could pull off, let alone attempt. At this point, however, I think it might be good for ...read more

    Everyone wants wisdom, but Psalm 1 gives more than just good advice, but vital information that can affect your entire life and beyond. It describes two paths in the life of your mind. Choices matter, which one are you making on a daily basis?

    This Psalm reminds me of Romans 12:2 “Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.” To be happy means to have thoughts and make decisions as God would. But often our ...read more
