    Realities Trump Ideas Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 13, 2016
     | 3,592 views

    Ideas disconnected from realities give rise to ineffectual forms of idealism and nominalism, capable at most of classifying and defining, but certainly not calling to action. What calls us to action are realities illuminated by reason.

    Mankind's ability to love purely (AGAPE) was lost in the fall of Adam and Eve. But Jesus redeems love in the family.

    Family Strong: LOVE Romans 5:7-8 Last week, we talked about partnership. Going back into Genesis, we saw how God’s design for marriage was pure and fulfilling. Then something went terribly wrong. Sin entered, and the resulting sin natures of both the husband and wife corrupted the ...read more

    If someone is looking for perfection in the Bride of Christ, they are not likely to find it. People focus on an ideal symmetry, but God gives His perfection to imperfect. We will be perfected at the return of our Saviour.

    “He had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him.” [1] Most of us don’t have to look very far to find things we don’t like about ourselves. Young women are trained by society to starve themselves in order to achieve a look they imagine will bring ...read more

    Whatever happened to purity? It’s a rare commodity today, but as believers, we should be reflecting the character of God. We need to be clean because God is clean. But how on earth are we going to remain pure in a world like this?

    John’s letter contains instructions, warnings, assurances and promises; however, the greatest thing he does is to affirm Christians’ uniqueness in Jesus. John writes in such a way that the confidence of God’s children is affirmed. John has highlighted several confidence builders in his letter:

    We are a miracle of love! There are many things in life that cannot be explained apart from a loving creative God. One day, while walking around your beautiful, landscaped yard you observe something. First, you discover that something has been eating on some of your plants. Then you stand in ...read more
