Is There Faith On Earth?

Contributed by Clair Sauer on Oct 16, 2013

Though the parable of the widow and unjust judge is difficult to hear, Jesus' lessons on the urgency of faith continues as he wonders, "When the Son of Man returns, will he find faith on earth?

For the last two weeks, we have learned along with the disciples as Jesus has taught about faith. And what we have learned, in essence, is that we are not made “Christian” by the amount of faith we have, but by a faith that is focused on God and lived out in gratitude to God and others. ...read more

Jesus had spent the first days of His final week shaking up the status quo concerning the worship of the LORD, the reverence due to the House of God, and to recall its purpose. He exposed the moneymaking schemes of the religious leaders, rebuked their practices, and drove out the merchants who ...read more

A Guarantee.

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Jan 17, 2024

D. L. Moody was to have a campaign in England. An elderly pastor protested, "Why do we need this ’Mr. Moody’? He’s uneducated, inexperienced, etc. Who does he think he is anyway? Does he think he has a monopoly on the Holy Spirit?"

A Guarantee. 2 Corinthians 1:21-22 As a child, I was taught not to question authority. The battle cry in that day was, mine is not to reason why, mine is to do or die. Patriotism was based on my country, right or wrong. Such is the basis for fanaticism and blind loyalty. Then came to Vietnam ...read more

How Should We Serve The Lord?

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 19, 2022

Look at this verse again. We read, “For they themselves show of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God.” GOD SAVES US FOR TWO REASONS: (1) He does not want us to perish. John 3:16 makes that clear. We read, “For God so ...read more

Everyone who was there, at the cross, had a question, except the ones who were sure they already had the answers.. . What’s going on? What am I doing here? Who is that man, anyway? What am I going to do?
