    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 18, 2024
     | 651 views

    Two ways, two sons, two destinies, two mothers but one father – Hagar and Sarah being the two mothers. Paul develops this position of two systems, one under bondage and one according to promise and freedom. Christians can place themselves under bondage.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 4:21–29 - MESSAGE 16 – THE ARGUMENT OF CONTRASTS: WHICH WOMAN ARE YOU FOLLOWING? Part 1 – Galatians 4 verses 21 – 23 We come now to the latter part of chapter 3 and the continuing evidence why Christians are not under Law but walk by grace through the promises ...read more

    We live in a generation that tells us to “follow your heart”, yet Scripture tells us the heart is deceitful, prone to wander, and constantly pulled between the sinful nature and the work of the Holy Spirit.

    If we accept the rest Jesus offers, all we have to do is accept his teachings as well as the obligations he will lay upon us. He invites us to treat each other as brothers and sisters in Christ.

    “Nothing I do is ever enough!!!” Have you ever heard someone say that? Have you ever said that or thought that yourself? Well I certainly have, especially when my father was alive. Sometimes no matter how much we do, how much we say, how much we pay, how much we save, how much we ...read more

    The difficulties associated with our modern day are reaching new levels of intensity. The majority is not interested in the Word or worship. As difficult as it may be, we remain obligated to serve the Lord and reach others. We can advance for Christ.

    Advancing in the Midst of Adversity 1 John 2: 24-29 Take a moment to consider the great challenges John spoke of in our last study. He warned the spirit of antichrist was already among us, seeking to undermine the church and hinder her ministry. He reminds us that we are living in the last time, ...read more

    Those who are in Christ are aware of the dangers and consequences of sin, and yet most today are unwilling to confront it. While we must work with compassion, we also have an obligation to address sin and deal with it in our lives.

    Seeing Sin for What it Is 1 John 3: 4-10 Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman used to tell of a Methodist preacher who often spoke on the subject of sin. He minced no words, but defined sin as “that abominable thing that God hates.” A leader in his congregation came to him on one occasion and urged ...read more

    Parents love to give advice to their children. As they are young, parents say, "Don’t run out in the street. Don’t touch the hot stove. Don’t play with fire."
