    By Faith We Understand

    Contributed by Larry Grant on Nov 3, 2024

     | 399 views

    Faith is trust in the unseen. It is not trust in the unknown, for we may know by faith what we cannot see with the eye. The Scripture says, “By Faith We Understand.” We understand the Evidence. We understand the Elders. And We understand the Eternal.

    Prayer is one of the greatest gifts God has given us - but it's also one of the most forsaken by today's Christian. Jesus gives us an example of how to pray and then goes on to show us three attitudes / behaviours that hinder our prayer life. Also inclu

    Prayer And The Lord's Prayer

    Contributed by David Mcnally on Feb 24, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,687 views

    The Lord's Prayer is not a 'carved in stone' set of words that we must use, but is a good guide for how to talk to God, Who wants us to pour out of hearts to Him, but not to try to impress others by our long and fancy words and 'super-spirituality'.

    Matthew 6 verses 5 – 13 PRAYING and THE LORD'S PRAYER Jesus based his teachings, and advice, and especially his parables on things, events and situations, that would be instantly recognisable and understandable to the people He was addressing. So, when He said ‘When you pray, do not ...read more

    Fasting is not required in the New Testament, neither is it condemned. When used properly it can help us have a closer relationship with God

    Ang Diwa Ng Pang-Unawa

    Ang malaman ang kalooban ng Diyos at pakikipagkaibigan sa Diyos ay nangangailangan ng espirituwal na pang-unawa. O Panginoon, bigyan ninyo ako ng pang-unawa alinsunod sa inyong salita, at ako ay mabubuhay. Ang iyong pang-unawa ay hindi maaring maunawaan.

    Jesus taught that we should "always pray and not give up." But why? Is God hard of hearing? Is it difficult to get His attention? Or is there something else we don’t understand?
