    Believers Baptism Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jan 4, 2023
     | 3,413 views

    Baptism is identification with Christ. Baptism allows the believer in Christ to openly identify with Christ who died, was buried and who rose again on his behalf. It is a public testimony to say I have identified with Christ. I will live for Christ.

    Believers Baptism On October 15, 1517, an Augustinian monk nailed his ninety-five theses on the church door in the town of Wittenberg. When Martin Luther nailed his theses to the door it marked the significant spark of the protestant reformation. Eight years after Luther nailed his 95 theses to ...read more

    Loving our enemies

    We are infected by the world. We live in and are bombarded, moment by moment, with the message that our injuries own us. They must be avenged. W.H. Auden wrote: I and the public know, What school children learn, Those to whom evil is done, Do evil in return. That is the way of this world. ...read more

He knew how to move from a person’s felt need to their perceived need to their human need as a gateway to their spiritual ...read more

    After expulsion from the Garden of Eden, man began to multiply greatly. So did his wickedness and evil. It was so bad, God decided to destroy the earth and every living thing on it. But in the middle of it all, there was still grace to be found. This

    Dealing with doubt when overcome by circumstance, a "crisis of faith." Reflective Christianity involves questioning what you believe while continuing to believe what you are questioning.

    “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief.” Most of us have said this at one time or another; We’ve hit a “crisis of faith” in which we waver in our self-confidence and in God’s ability to come to our aid. I went to college with Ed Dobson, an evangelical leader who is ...read more

    He said something only God could say. These are the words of the greatest blasphemer of all time, or the words of God Incarnate.

    “I tell you the truth, before Abraham was born, I AM,” Jesus is talking mainly to people who think they’re insiders, yet are outside of God’s grace. But first--verse 30 (which we looked at last time) records how, in spite of critical opposition to Jesus, many came to ...read more

    I trust you had a wonderful Valentines Day; I’d like to continue the theme of love by telling what the Bible says about it, principally in the context of marriage.

    The Mind Of The Lord Series

    God transcends words. He is beyond language. We cannot reduce Him to our experience. God is unique and different from anything in this world. He is massive, boundless, beyond all imagining. God is His own category.

    I’d like to explain to you Who God is…but I can’t. Isaiah speaks of God as so massive, so far above us, that we can barely take in who He is. God surpasses human comprehension. Some people think they can put God “in a box”; that is, have Him fully figured out. How ...read more
