    Be Ready For Persecution

     | 131 views

    When facing persecution, Jesus' disciples (believers) must have endurance and wisdom, be certain to look like Jesus, preach the Word fearlessly, and trust that God is in control. What have we to fear when our life is in His hands?

    I would like to open with an illustration from the book Jesus Freaks: Jaun and his wife Maria felt God calling them to become missionaries in Columbia. Once, while travelling between villages, Jaun met about fifty armed guerillas. He took the opportunity to share the gospel with them, and twenty ...read more

    TRUE REPENTANCE HATES THE SIN, AND NOT MERELY THE PENALTY; AND IT HATES THE SIN MOST OF ALL BECAUSE IT HAS DISCOVERED AND HAS FELT GOD'S REDEEMING LOVE. I THINK BILLY GRAHAM MADE AN INTERESTING COMMENTARY ABOUT SINFULNESS AND HOW SUCH SINFULNESS HAS BEEN LIKE A DISEASE RUNNING RAMPANT IN OUR ...read more

    Ready To Heed

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on May 17, 2023
     | 1,578 views

    The word "heed" is a biblical word that we don't use today. So what does it mean, and how does it apply to our lives now?

    What exactly does the word “heed” mean? It is more than hearing (Psa. 119:9) It is more than agreeing (Hos. 4:10) It is more than teaching (Josh. 22:5) It is more than honoring (II Kings 10:31) So what is heeding? It is remembering to use, following what is said, and making that a rule for conduct. ...read more

    Are we ready for Jesus? Does He even know us?

    Are we prepared for Christ’s Coming? Let’s learn how in the Parable of the Ten Virgins in Matthew 25:1-13.

    Jesus teaches us valuable lessons using the story of ten bridesmaids to prepare us for eternity.

    A GREAT DEAL OF OUR LIFE AND DAILY ROUTINE IS GETTING READY OR PREPARATION. WE SPEND TIME GETTING READY FOR WORK, FOR APPOINTMENTS, HOLIDAYS, AND SUCH.

    Paul teaches us to "dress for battle" against the "wiles of the devil." How do we do that? Why is that so important?

    WE HATE CHEATING. WE DON’T LIKE TO GET DUPED, FOOLED, TRICKED, AND TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY ANYONE. IT SEEMS TO BE ESPECIALLY PAINFUL IF IT INVOLVED TRUSTED FRIENDS OR FAMILY.
