    Closely related to God's immutability is His faithfulness. All Scripture references are from the NASB.

    As we have considered the attributes of God, last week we looked at God never changing. The God of the Old Testament is the same God of the New Testament. Only God can say “I never change.” (Malachi 3:6). Very closely related to the unchangeableness of God is His faithfulness. When we encounter ...read more

    Contributed by Brady Boyd on Jun 15, 2021
     | 4,028 views

    The Scriptures are not opposed to ambition that leads to growth and prosperity. When that ambition becomes selfish and self-centered, it is condemned.

    Proverbs How do I … Live Generously June 20, 2021 Proverbs 11:24-25 NIV “One man gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty. 25 A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.” We must learn to be generous. 1.

    Who will train up our next generation of godly Mothers? All Scripture references are from the NASB

    You have heard it said, “We are but one generation away from a being a pagan people.” This is so true. I praise God for my godly parents for the way they raised me. If it were not for them I believe I could have very well been swept up and out with the ways of the world. I know for many ...read more

    Who Can And Cannot Be Saved

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 2,176 views

    The scripture says, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

    This verse of scripture sounds simple enough, but often even a familiar text needs some explanation. Something needing an explanation makes me think of the following little story: Illus: There was a criminal who was put in prison. The prison life had many new and different aspects. One of the ...read more

    This is a very interesting passage of scripture. I have asked the Lord to help me make it as clear as possible.

She had to go on a business trip and she had to leave Pumpkin home for her husband to take care of while she was gone. She left Pumpkin reluctantly; ...read more

    Today we want to look again at the scriptures to see what is required of us if we are to be good stewards.

    How Should We Serve The Lord?

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 19, 2022
     | 3,097 views

    In the verse of scripture that I read to you, it states something that I wish could be true of every Christian.

    Look at this verse again. We read, “For they themselves show of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God.” GOD SAVES US FOR TWO REASONS: (1) He does not want us to perish. John 3:16 makes that clear. We read, “For God so ...read more

    Are We Being Obedient?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jul 10, 2023
     | 814 views

    In this passage of Scripture, Paul is writing to the Philippians, instructing them to be humble like Christ. How humble are we?

    These verses are presumably from a psalm sung by the early Christian church. The passage holds many equals to the prediction of the suffering servant in Isaiah 53. As a song, it was not intended to be a finished assertion about the nature and work of Christ. Notwithstanding, a few vital attributes ...read more
