    Now is a good time to clean our spiritual house as the body of Christ as well as each of us individually.

    Are You A Church Builder?

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 16, 2021
     | 5,372 views

    The work in Christ’s church will not get done in a hurry. We don’t even have a target date for completion. But this is what makes the difference for our church building: It’s the work of our Lord! It’s the church that Christ bought with his precious blood.

    Are you a church builder? Do you see it as your responsibility to serve the church of Christ? To strengthen it, and to grow it? You should, because that’s the calling given to you by the Lord God! Sometimes we like to leave church-building work to the experts. We leave the physical aspects of the ...read more

    there is only one thing that is eternal - God's love

    (Luke 14:26) The Gospel we heard today is one of the numerous ‘apocalyptic’ verses foretelling the destruction and end of the world.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,009 views

    The Olivet Discourse in Luke 21:5-38 teaches us that Jesus is coming again and has given us signs that ought to make us pray and get ready for his coming to establish his kingdom.

    Scripture It was the final week of Jesus’ life, just days before his death. All of the public attempts of the various groups of religious leaders to discredit Jesus had failed completely, and they no longer dared ask him any question (Luke 20:40). Jesus warned his disciples, in the hearing ...read more

    the widow gave all she had in faith

    We just heard Jesus condemn the officials of the church for being pompous, strutting around like peacocks and preying on the poor and defenseless (Mark 12:38-44). In Jesus’ time, a woman who was widowed was the lowest form of humanity. The men owned everything (even any money and property a ...read more

    If there had only been an Ezra, only part of the job would have gotten done. If there had only been a Nehemiah, only part of the job would have gotten done. God needed both men to accomplish the goal.

    Even as Jeremiah tried to prevent the destruction and misery their rebellion had brought, the people only hardened their hearts and stubbornly refused to listen.

He removed the idols from the land, but he couldn’t remove idol worship from the hearts of the people. ...read more

    The Withered Fig Tree.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 17, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,129 views

    Today’s passage brings together two events which are not unrelated to each other: the cleansing of the Temple, and the withering of the fig tree. Both are figurative of the state and changing status of the old Jewish faith at the dawn of the gospel era.

    THE WITHERED FIG TREE. Mark 11:12-33. I. The Barren Fig Tree. Mark 11:12-14; Mark 11:20-26. As we see Jesus approaching the fig tree (Mark 11:12-13), we need to recollect that Jesus is God. The fig tree is a well-known symbol of Israel: ‘every man under his vine and his fig tree’ (cf. ...read more
