Overcoming The World Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Aug 1, 2022

Christ said He overcame the world. We have been charged with the same purpose. But how do we do it?

I think I was seven or eight years old when my mother became concerned enough about the lack of a church background for my younger sister and I that she began to take us to church. We drove 20 minutes to the nearest Presbyterian Church and on one of those first Sundays I found myself in a large ...read more

Gifts

Contributed by Dennis King on Aug 26, 2022

What do you think of when "gifts" are mentioned? Usually, when Christians think of "gifts," we think of giving 10%, or less, to the Church. How backward is that?

Gifts What do you think of when I mention the word "gifts?" Usually, when Christians think of "gifts," we think of giving a small portion of money to the Church. Are you kidding me? Since everything is God's to begin with, how backward is that? Oh, how the sin of pride ...read more

Time and again Isaiah brings Genesis to our minds—Genesis, that amazing book of beginnings.

Where Is The Lord God Of Elijah (1 Of 2)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 4, 2022

As I read through this passage, it appears that Elijah is testing Elisha.

Look at verse 2. He said to Elisha, “...Tarry here, I pray thee; for the Lord hath sent me to Beth-el...” But notice Elisha’s response in that same verse, “...As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee...” Then look at verse 4. Elijah seems to test Elisha again. He ...read more

The Eternal Desire Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 8, 2021

We have lost this idea of reverence for the name of God, and the result is, God's name is not very special, but is common. It is thrown around like Tom, Dick, and Harry. It is so common that it is nearly impossible to feel any reverence when people use His name.

George was vice president under president Polk, but only a whiz in trivial pursuit would ever remember his last name. He had a chance to become president of the United States, but he lost that chance because of ...read more
