OPEN: The story of Zacchaeus only occurs in the Gospel of Luke. It seems to me that its possible that, as Luke interviewed people for his Gospel, he may have spoken with Zacchaeus - and the man’s story stood out to him. It’s also possible, given that Zacchaeus’ name is used here, that he was known ...read more

Seventh Commandment (8 Of 12)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022

I would like to remind you again of the importance of considering why God gave these ten commandments to Israel.

Why? God gave them to Israel before they entered the promised land as they were forming a new nation. He knew that the people needed laws to govern the people by. Every person could not just do as he pleased, when he pleased, to whomever he pleased. Today we would like to deal with the seventh ...read more

Four Special Blessings In Heaven

Contributed by David Nolte on Nov 6, 2020

Heaven, a blessing in itself, is filled with blessings beyond measure, but here are 4 special blessings.

We all prefer receiving blessings more than we enjoy being cursed. At least those among us who are not masochists who take pleasure in being hurt or punished.
