    Why is the Sabbath day celebrated on Sunday? Why are the Pharisees upset with Jesus about working on the Sabbath day? Why are the Pharisees upset with Jesus? Does the law make people well or does grace and mercy make people well?

    Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. When you hear that you ought to keep the Sabbath Day holy, what does it mean to you? I know for many the first response is we ought to go to church. Sunday is the Lord’s Day so let that be a day dedicated to the Lord and go ...read more

    Did the disciples break the law at times? Can we sometimes break the letter of the law while keeping the spirit or intent of the law? Let’s look at an example using the law of the road?

    based on 38 ratings
     | 14,726 views

    The lack of the written Law is not the problem, the issue is sin. All have inner knowledge of God's law & some have the external law. It is not so much which law you have, the one written in everyone's inner being or the one written in God's book.

    ROMANS 2: 12-16 GOD'S UNIVERSALLY KNOWN STANDARD [James 1:22-24 / Galatians 1: 6-12] The principle stated in Romans 2:11 that "there is no partiality with God" would shock the Jews. They considered themselves worthy of special treatment by God. Does God's impartiality exclude His taking into ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,005 views

    This section has been called an inverted dirge, beginning with celebration, but ending in tears. This shows just how totally the Psalmist is engaged with his subject. In truth, it is a celebration of the Word of God, and of the God of the Word.

    AN ODE TO THE WORD OF GOD. Psalm 119:129-136. Psalm 119:129. Reason to keep God’s “testimonies”? Because they are wonderful. Indeed, the Word of God is a ‘wonderful’ thing, full as it is of an extraordinary supernatural wonder! The Psalmist engages not just his “soul” but his whole man to the ...read more
