Reading The Bible Literally

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Oct 7, 2020

Paul's instruction that the Corinthians were to "greet one another with a holy kiss" provides a nice open door for discussing whether we are to take the Bible literally. This message looks at four considerations that we need to keep in mind to read the Bible correctly.

Do Not Forget Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 2, 2021

To build well in this life we must remember the past instructions and warnings. Memory is a must to men of maturity, for he who forgets is as bad off as he who never knew.

Virgil, the ancient poet, describes the river Lethe as flowing through a tranquil landscape, and on its banks wandered a countless multitude who drank of its waters which washed away all memory of the past. This would seem to be an ideal situation for sinful creatures like we are, for we are ...read more

Scripture And Suicide Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 9, 2021

Suicide is almost always folly in our culture, for it is basically just a means of escape. It is usually based on ignorance of the future. People think their present situation is permanent, and they cannot stand to think of living with their present burden for the rest of their lives.

The book of Jonah gives a very favorable account of the attitude and character of the pagans involved. In fact, they are at points pictured on a higher level than Jonah himself. At last, however, we see a change in Jonah, and some of his good character breaks through. The sailors had all ...read more

The Good Shepherd Series

Isaiah’s prophecy is important because everything that happened to Jesus was a part of God’s plan. A plan for all people!
