    Amos 5:18-27 shows us that nominal religion provides no hope for the present or eternity.

    Introduction Commentator Gordon Keddie tells the story of two men who were discussing the whys and wherefores of the biblical “millennium” mentioned in Revelation 20:4.

     | 25,577 views

    Most of us don't want to admit it, but more often than not God's instructions don't make sense. That's because God is not a sense God, he is a faith God. The question is... What do you do when God doesn't make sense?

     | 1,188 views

    Persecution is the flip side of peace-making. If we live out the first 7 beatitudes, this one, the 8th, follows on their heels as surely as water flows downhill.

    About 35 years ago, a Romanian pastor came to visit the church I belonged to, a nice white church in a rich western suburb of Minneapolis.

    Reading Light, Leading Light Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022
     | 1,404 views

    People see the world from different angles. I’d like to suggest that the Holy Spirit gives us Christ’s perspective. We need to start seeing the world through Christ-colored glasses, which is not the same as rose-colored glasses. Jesus saw compassionately, but he also saw clearly and realistically.

    How many of you own a flashlight? I probably have half a dozen, and most of them have dead batteries in them. I’d be lost without the flashlight app on my smart phone, because it’s always charged. It works. It helps me see where I’m going. It is, to use Jesus’ word, healthy. I think you can all ...read more

    We want to look at the Holy Spirit in context to our overall Biblical study of God. We keep in mind that Holy, creator God is One. We also keep in mind that there is one God in three-person, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

     | 3,073 views

    John was one of the original Twelve Disciples of Jesus. He spent more than three years with Jesus. He realized why Jesus came. And He wrote the reason why Jesus came in his gospel. In John 3:16-17, he said that God sent Jesus into this world to love us. This is why we must celebrate His birth.

    The Book Of Lamentations – Part 13 – Jeremiah And The Nation Are In Affliction; The Nation Is Expelled; Bodies Suffer; Bitterness - Chapter 3:1-5 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 25, 2025
     | 325 views

    Sin brought bitterness and hardship, so bad that horrible things were done among the people. These verses dwell on that today. God is blamed for it all through His allowing Babylon to come. They walk in darkness, but they suffer their own fate.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 13 – JEREMIAH AND THE NATION ARE IN AFFLICTION; THE NATION IS EXPELLED; BODIES SUFFER; BITTERNESS - CHAPTER 3:1-5 LAMENTATIONS CHAPTER 3 Now we enter into a lot of shorter verses but each one has a definite, strong meaning.

    The Christian life is not a spectator sport. We are not called to sit back, to be passive, or to simply admire what Christ has done. We are called to be His hands and feet in a broken world. We are called to move — to live out our salvation in acts of love, service, and obedience.
