Peace Through Contentment Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 11, 2017

Evidence Of A Spirit Filled Believer

Contributed by Jerry Hoffman on May 27, 2009

John the Baptist gives us a clear picture of the attributes of a Spirit filled Christian.

The most evident attribute of a Spirit filled Christian is their inability not to proclaim the name of Christ. Since the work of the Spirit is to bear witness to the world of Christ, His filling in our lives will produce the same result. John bears this out in his actions in John 1:15. John bear ...read more

A Next Generation Prayer Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 17, 2021

Notice that this prayer puts the spiritual before the physical. The Bible always places your spiritual health before your physical health. We are always doing the opposite. We nearly always talk about physical problems – money problems, marriage problems, and health problems.

The Church: Exhibit A

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 31, 2019

The church often seems really clutzy, but the way that we live together and love one another is really important.

Have you ever noticed that sometimes the church seems a bit lame? There never seems to be enough money. There always seems to be somebody fussing about some really petty thing, trying to make a mountain out of a molehill. Sometimes it seems to take forever to get everybody agreed and working ...read more

Consequences Of Forsaking The Lord

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Oct 11, 2025

All members of society suffer from the evils all around us. Why does God allow suffering and persecution to the righteous? Consequences for evil doings must be endured. Spiritual Blindness and Spiritual Adultery against God are some of the causes.

Evils come upon everyone. Some believe it is a part of life. Leaders speak of these evil behaviors as nothing to be alarmed over. Murders and other vicious crimes happen daily. Many more occur at different times compared to others; perhaps more are occurring here recently. 2 Timothy 3:13. 13 But ...read more
