    The Day of Atonement is when the High Priest would offer the blood of a lamb before the Ark of Covenant to forgive the nations sin for the year.

    Leviticus 23:26-32 (NASB) 26 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 27 "On exactly the tenth day of this seventh month is the day of atonement; it shall be a holy convocation for you, and you shall humble your souls and present an offering by fire to the LORD. 28 "You shall not do any work on this same ...read more

    Christians have a Memorial Day each and every first day of the week. “Do this in remembrance of me” The Lord’s Supper is a memorial that allows us to remember what Jesus did for us on the cross.

    Remembering is so very important. There are people, places and events that we remember. We leave ourselves reminder notes to help us remember to get things done on time. A man was working in his backyard one day, when his neighbor began talking to him over the fence. He said, "Yeah, my wife and I ...read more

    The raising of the Widow of Nain's son shows us the compassion of Jesus

    The Raising of the Widow of Nain’s Son Introduction Today’s Gospel reading isn’t a very easy passage to speak on. I think the key to understanding why Luke included this story in his Gospel can be found in the final passage of Lk 7 - Luke 7:18-35 John the Baptist has held in ...read more

    Heaven Is A Party Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 24, 2013
     | 7,037 views

    Heaven is party-central, and the party starts now, but doesn't get into full gear till we get to Heaven, or when Jesus returns--whichever comes first.

    When Biblical writers speak of Heaven, they often use figurative language. I suspect the reason is that they’re trying to express heavenly realities with the limitations of human language. Trying to describe Heaven to us is like trying to describe this world to an unborn child. And so ...read more
