Contributed by Chris Swanson on Nov 20, 2022

Beggars would line the streets looking for assistance. Regardless of how urgent our circumstance may appear, if we call out to Jesus in faith, He will help us.

For those of you that might be interested, Matthew 20:29-34 and Mark 10:46-52 recant this same story. Beggars regularly lined up along the streets close to urban areas since that was the place where they had the option to contact the most people.

Under Warranty Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 29, 2022

God's Saving Grace

Contributed by Robert Webb on Sep 3, 2022

Christ made the atonement for the sins of the world in place of sinners that deserved death. He gave His body as a propitiation (an appeasement, an atonement, as a sacrifice) for the sins of the world. If anyone could appreciate the Grace of God it had to be Paul

Redeemed From Rebellion

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 2, 2017

As Hosea redeemed his wife, Gomer, from the slave market, he revealed the unwavering love of God for Israel. This was also a beautiful picture of what Christ would do for humanity as He offered Himself the atoning sacrifice for sin.
