    based on 1 rating
     | 2,252 views

    God's curse pronounced against the serpent gave hope to the fallen pair who had rebelled against their Creator. That hope is fulfilled in the salvation offered in Christ the Lord.

    “The LORD God said to the serpent, ‘Because you have done this, cursed are you above all livestock and above all beasts of the field; on your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life. I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and ...read more

    How Can We Sing The Lord's Songs In A Foreign Land?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 11, 2023
     | 3,017 views

    Our life as followers of Christ serve as either a hymn of praise pointing to our Saviour, or it serves as mere background noise for the delight of a dying world.

    “[By the waters of Babylon] our captors required of us songs, and our tormentors, mirth, saying, ‘Sing us one of the songs of Zion!’ “How shall we sing the LORD’s song in a foreign land? If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill!” [1] “Our citizenship is in Heaven, ...read more

    A message for the Labour Day weekend, emphasising that the work we perform and the manner in which we work reflect our understanding of God.

    “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.” [1] The necessity of going to work Monday morning despite being exhausted from the “rest and relaxation” pursued ...read more

    Remember The Sabbath Day Series

     | 2,821 views

    The Sabbath cannot be found on any calendar! It is one day out of every seven days that we are to rest from our work. The argument of the Sabbath being Saturday or Sunday is nothing more than an exercise in futility!

    The Ten Commandments are the foundation of God's Law. I say that because the Bible indicates more than just these ten. Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the ...read more

    Most religions teach, along with the Bible, that God hates and despises the iniquity of sin and holds every individual responsible for their sin

    Part 1 INTRODUCTION It is the amazing and profound love of God that is the most powerful force in the Cosmos and the reason people exist. The Bible declares that God is love and is infinitely loving and just (1 John 4:8-10). It is because of His love He must deal with sin, which is the breaking ...read more

    Deceitful Religion

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 6, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 691 views

    Jacob's sons distorted the Faith; the Shechemites attempted to co-opt the religious practices of the Israelites to enrich themselves. Both groups attempted to use religion to obtain their own ends, resulting in death and destruction. Deceitful religion always leads to ruin and destruction.

    “Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the women of the land. And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her, he seized her and lay with her and humiliated her. And his soul was drawn to Dinah the daughter of Jacob. He loved the ...read more

    Our service to the Lord must be guided by His Spirit and offered to glorify Him.

    “A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If then I am a father, where is my honor? And if I am a master, where is my fear? says the LORD of hosts to you, O priests, who despise my name. But you say, ‘How have we despised your name?’ By offering polluted food upon my altar.

     | 831 views

    Teaching our daughters to be godly will require modelling righteous lives as well as providing sound instruction from the pulpit and in the home.

    “Women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works.” [1] There are certain clothes Christian women should never wear in public. ...read more

    When you study the Bible you are drawing closer to Jesus because He IS the Word of God and spoke the mountains and seas into existence and wove each of us together in our mother’s womb.

    “Teach me, Lord, the way of your decrees, that I may follow it to the end. Give me understanding, so that I may keep your law and obey it with all my heart.

    If it was a crime to be a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you? Are you able to say what a Christian is?

    “Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James, To those who are called, beloved in God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ: May mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.” [1] A little boy once asked his father, “Daddy, what is a Christian?” The dad patiently explained to his son ...read more
