    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 24, 2022
     | 625 views

    When we make problems for ourselves where God had intended for us to make progress, we cannot usually reset our course. The Old Testament story about the Esau’s birthright that he surrendered to his brother Jacob is perhaps one of the best examples of this.

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,814 views

    It is God's will for people to progress through the stages of discipleship from being spiritually dead, to being a spiritual infant, child, young adult, and parent. We must be able to assess where we are and where others are in the process so we all can grow to maturity.

    A. I like the story told of the little boy who was confused about something and said to his Bible class teacher: “There’s somethin’ I can’t figger out.” 1. The teacher said, “What is it, Joey?” 2. Joey said, “Well accordin’ to the Bible, the Children of Israel crossed the Red Sea, right?” a. “ ...read more

    We look at the fruit of faithfulness and see how this characteristic of God becomes a powerful witness to the fact that God is real and He is in us.
