    Life can throw some bad curve balls (e.g. death) our way and they hurt . The Scriptures offer us a breathe of fresh air or rather, a breath of fresh hope!

    13But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope. 14For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus. 15For this we say to you by the ...read more

    A lot of people consider the flood to be a myth - or at best, a localized event. But we consider Scriptural and scientific evidence for the flood and how it answers many questions about our earth and our destiny.

    So we come to Chapter 7 - the Flood This is the single greatest judgment ever to hit planet earth - so far. This and chapter 8 are also one of the hardest for us humans to swallow. Four things we need to keep in mind about the Flood: " It really happened (New Testament quotes it four times) " ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,232 views

    The pattern is all over Scripture: we cannot separate our vertical relationship to God from our horizontal relationship to others; the vertical always influences the horizontal. This is true in the realm of comfort.

    Jesus asks Peter this question three times. It is the only time in scripture where Jesus asks anyone, "Do you love me?" It is an important question that determines our ultimate destiny.

    Do You Love Me? What are some things that you love? How does your love of these compare with your love for Jesus Christ? There’s a song in our songbook that goes: “The things that I love and hold dear to my heart are just borrowed they’re not mine at all. Jesus only let me use them to brighten ...read more
