The Birth Of The Messiah Foretold

Contributed by Peter Reece on Nov 27, 2022

The genealogy of Jesus in Matthew's gospel looks ultra boring, but does in fact have important things to say. Matthew shows not only that Jesus is the Messiah, but He is the only possible Messiah.

Which is exactly what Matthew seeks to do with his genealogy of Jesus. Matthew wants to bring the back-story if Jesus, the ...read more

Be In The Know (Part Two)

Last week I talked about how we need to realize how little we know. We might know a lot of information but what about spiritual things? God wants everyone to come to a knowledge of the truth. Then we need to grow in our knowledge. There are some things we need to have along with knowledge.
