    The Book Of Lamentations – Part 37 – We Look At The Crimes Of Edom; Their Evil Against Israel - Chapter 4:20-22 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 4, 2025
     | 250 views

    With Israel’s defeat, all means were used against them in the name of hate. Ambushes and murder from Edom was despicable. God had not overlooked it. The end of Chapter 4 has Edom in God’s sights so the evil done to Israel will come hard on their own heads.

    THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 37 – WE LOOK AT THE CRIMES OF EDOM; THEIR EVIL AGAINST ISRAEL - CHAPTER 4:20-22 This is the last of the descriptions of the plight of the refugees. Their lot was a very sad one indeed. Verses 17 to 20 are a set of four that look at the awful conditions of the ...read more

    Unity

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jan 29, 2015
    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,158 views

    We can’t convert the world from its emphasis on self to a life in Christ unless we are united in purpose-unless we love one another. When we ignore the will of God in order to have our own way, the result is discord and disunity. Unity begins with us.

     | 7,203 views

    Jesus has come to judge and offer healing (forgiveness) to all who will accept it. But, do we assess ourselves by our own self-righteousness that we consider ourselves above needing what Jesus offers? A blind man didn't, and now, he can see!

    The Gospel of Accomplishment: “You must believe and live right to be saved.” The Gospel of Approval: “I’m defined by what other people think about me.” Here’s our third counterfeit gospel: The Gospel of Self-Management - “You can change. Look inside you for the power to change.”

    We continue our series on Why the Reformation matters today by looking at the importance of faith. One of the critical pieces that came out of the Reformation was the belief that Faith Alone makes me acceptable to God.

    Let God Do The Finger Pointing

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Aug 7, 2023
     | 2,268 views

    If finger pointing is impolite and it is so often connected to self-centered, sinful behavior why does God do it? God does this so that when sinners see their lost condition he can point them to the cross of his Son. There forgiveness is found. There salvation and eternal life are offered.

    “Finger pointing.” What thoughts do those two words bring to your mind? For the most part they are probably negative thoughts. At a very early age we are taught not to point at people. It’s considered impolite. As we get older we experience finger pointing in many different ways. If we had ...read more

    In a world that often glorifies self-reliance and independence, it's easy to fall into the trap of relying solely on our own understanding. However, Proverbs 3:5-6 challenges this notion and reminds us that true wisdom comes from aligning ourselves with God's will.

    Jesus did not come to this world to give us advice. He came to save us. He did not come to boost our self-esteem. He came to redeem our souls. He did not come to help us cope with life. He came to give us new life.
