We read in Luke 23:43, Jesus said to him, "I can guarantee this truth: Today you will be with me in paradise." (GW) These are the words of Lord Jesus as he hung on the cross to the thief who was also hanging on a cross adjacent to Him. In his last dying moments, the man called out to ...read more

Lack of zeal for the Gospel and Christian faith is a danger for those who are possessed of wealth and feel self-sufficient. Christ calls us from the cares of the world and deceitfulness of riches to restored spiritual vision, real safety and true wealth.

Revelation 3__4-22 the Lukewarm Church "Blessed are the Lukewarm." Christians profess to follow religiously Jesus Christ. If that is so, then surely "Blessed are the Lukewarm" must have been one of his sayings for there are so many, many professing Christians who show no enthusiasm or service. ...read more

In Giving, Where Is The ‘enough’ Line? Series

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 21, 2019

| 3,699 views

Paul doesn't just say, "Tithe and you're good." Rather, he encourages the Corinthians to "excel in the grace of giving." What does that mean exactly? And what does grace have to do with giving?

IN GIVING, WHERE IS THE "ENOUGH" LINE? Many Christians would say, “Tithe and you’re good.” - There is a natural tendency in almost all of us to want to know where the line is. It might be so we don’t cross it. It might be so we can cross it. But we want to know where the line is. - ...read more

By the apostles leaving all of that, we can see that Jesus relativized all of the central institutions of his society.

The rich young ruler is not boasting; he is just speaking as a devout Jew. Not all Christians are called to literally give away their possessions, but all disciples are called to give up everything by way of detachment; that everything we have ultimately belongs to God. Spiritual poverty means to ...read more

We have seen the signs. "Will Work For Food". Would it be unreasonable to suggest "Must Work For Food"?

Some have suggested that the able bodied poor should perform some sort of work or community service to receive benefits. Of course, others have opposed it. FDR created the CCC and WPA which were pretty much working welfare programs. Indeed, it was a fulltime job and not easy labor. Lev_19:10 ...read more
