Love Without Limits

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Feb 19, 2017

Jesus challenges the common wisdom of his day, stating God doesn't want us to "love our neighbor and hate our enemy" but to love everyone, including our enemies. This is impossible without the love of God flowing through us.

Matthew 5:43-48 Love without Limits Did you know your body is not designed to carry anger for very long? Now don’t get me wrong: anger is a helpful emotion. It tells you something is terribly wrong. But God designed your body to resolve anger as quickly as possible and to move on. Resentment and ...read more

Lot's Day Vs. Our Day

Contributed by Thilini Perera on Jan 3, 2021

“IT WAS THE SAME IN THE DAYS OF LOT” said Jesus in Luke chapter 17:28 teaching invaluable lessons about the latter days, popularly known as the End-times. Jesus masterfully points to the parallel conditions between the two eras, LOT’S DAY and OUR DAY.

When we dissect the BELOW text we can identify two noticeable eras paralleled in the text along with three people categories belonging to each era, namely the 1. SODOMITES, 2. LOT’S FAMILY and 3. LOT’S WIFE. It’s worth looking at the conduct and the choices made by people of each category, as they ...read more

These Are The Days Of Elijah – "Days Like These Require A Sustained Effort”

During Elisha’s ministry, the Jordan River parted instantly, poisoned waters were healed, the borrowed iron ax head flowed to the surface, dead children had been raised to life, but the miracle Israel needed now would be difficult. This miracle will require a sustained effort.

Prophet Elisha is on his death bed, over 80 years old in a weakened condition, yet God’s people are ...read more
