    Paul was a model preacher, missionary, leader theologian. But he began as a baby Christian like all of us. He was also a model baby Christian. This sermon teaches us how we can grow in Christ and maximize our usefulness for the kingdom of God.

    Joel's prophecy causes some confusion for interpreters because it seems, and is, a description of two very different events. Very different, yes, but very related, also. See for yourself.

    2. History and Prophecy. The book of Joel There are two portions of Scripture that I believe need our further scrutiny on the subject of locusts. Actually the subject is Bible prophecy, a favorite of mine for sure. The first portion is the prophecy of Joel. I quote here from a former blog of ...read more

    Our sins can never be greater than the grace of God. Our failure can never be greater than the love of God. Our failure in the past does not determine what we will become in the future.

    God of 2nd Chances Intro: A little boy went out to the ball field by himself, wearing his baseball cap and carrying a bat and ball. In his eye was the look of steely determination. He was so full of confidence that he put his bat on his shoulder, tossed the ball into the air, and said, ...read more

    Divine rewards demand that we conduct our lives according to God's rules provided in His Word.

    I consider the initial verses of this chapter to be among the most significant verses of the book. They are, as well, perhaps the most neglected verses of the missive which Paul wrote.

    Paul calls himself a bondservant of Jesus Christ. Such a sense of devotion springs from an awareness of the great love Christ has demonstrated by His death. Paul was not just a servant to the Lord but a slave as well and answerable only to Him.
