The Pharisees had carefully collected both Herodians who supported paying taxes to Rome and Zealots who thought that paying taxes to Caesar was treason against the ...read more

This is a lesson about using the gifts that God has already given us instead of wishing our lives away wanting what God has not ordained. It features the problem that the first disciples were having and Jesus' answer to them when they asked for more faith.

Doing Your Duty with a Little Faith Luke 17: 5-10, 2 Timothy 1:3-12 The Apostles were with Jesus daily. They saw miracles that would make their hearts stand still and yet they wanted more faith.

Purchased For Clarity: The Sobriety Of A Blood-Bought Priesthood

Contributed by Pastor Matthew Faure on Jan 10, 2026

Christ's blood-purchase makes all believers a royal priesthood with permanent Spirit-indwelling. Because New Covenant believers are the temple rather than entering it temporarily, Leviticus 10:9's priestly sobriety requirement becomes continuous, not contextual.

PURCHASED FOR CLARITY: THE SOBRIETY OF A BLOOD-BOUGHT PRIESTHOOD I. YOU ARE NOT YOUR OWN The crisis of modern Christianity begins with a lie: "I am free to choose." But Scripture says: You are not your own. This is not poetry. This is legal reality. Paul asks: "Know ye ...read more

Where Succession Fails (1 Samuel 2)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Mar 28, 2025

Can someone outside the line of succession be more faithful to God? Let's look at 1 Samuel 2.

Does a list of succession automatically mean faithfulness to God? Do faithful people often come from outside artificial lines of succession? Let’s look at 1 Samuel 2.
