Healing From Guilt

Contributed by Dan Waite on Jan 14, 2006

God’s aim is to make people holy (v 10). However, one of the basic philosophies of Christianity is that everyone is guilty, by divine standards, and it is a crime to claim innocence. The reality is that we feel we are not holy for a variety of reasons.

A Success Story

Contributed by Alberto Valenzuela on Oct 11, 2006

Society hammers into our brains the idea that success is to be measured with goods. The media claims that he who dies with the most toys wins. And we all want not only the best but the latest toys. We all want to win.

A Success Story All humans, men and women, fall in three categories, in relationship to being successful. Those who are successful, those who aren’t successful and those who are on their way to being successful. If we were to subdivide them even further we could mention those who are on their way ...read more

What Happened To The Narrow Way

Contributed by Marty Roark on Jul 3, 2008

Close minded as you may claim it is, the Bible is the final authority for our lives and even though there are many paths in this world that will take you many places, only one “way” leads to God and eternal life.

What happened to the Narrow Way? The Narrow Way Matthew 7:13-14 13 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find ...read more

Power To Succeed Series

Contributed by Barry L. Davis on May 2, 2013

The fact is, there is nothing in the Bible to suggest that God has quit working with power through His people – and I have come to the conclusion that the fault does not lie with God, but with those of us who claim to follow Him.

The book of Acts found in your Bibles records for us the history of the early church and how God used ordinary people to build His kingdom. While we call it the “Acts of the Apostles” it would be more accurate to call it the “Acts of the Holy Spirit” as it was the Holy Spirit moving through, in, ...read more

Today’s passage brings us to a question that is at the heart of the Middle East conflict. It is also at the heart of one’s relationship with God.

No More Bread

Contributed by Ben Irabor on Aug 9, 2010

Our constant claims of hot bread backed only by stale crumbs on frayed carpets of man’s tradition have left countless generation’s hungry, homeless, and with nowhere else to go but Moab.

No More Bread, “In the House Of God” The priority of God’s presence has been lost in the modern Church. We‘re like bakeries that are open, but have no bread. And furthermore, we’re not interest in selling bread. We just like the chit-chat that goes on around cold ...read more

Blameless!!

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Feb 26, 2024

Wouldn't it be great to be blame-less? Considering all of the things that we have done in our life, it would not be likely that we could claim that title. Still, if there would be a way, why not at least check into it.

Absolutely Persuaded Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 3, 2021

Paul's claim is not that all is good, but that God is great, and He will see that nothing hinders His chosen ones from reaching the highest good, which is the redemption of His soul and its transformation into the image of Christ.

The 8th chapter of Romans is a spiritual palace of comfort and challenge built for the children of God. Nothing could be more optimistic than the words we find here that all works for good, and that if God is before us who can be against us. God has given His Son who intercedes of us, and nothing ...read more

The What God Hates

Contributed by Kelly Durant on Feb 25, 2017

People are confused by protestors and riots and they are hating those who they claim hate, but is this in alignment with God's word? God does hate, and abomination punishments bear witness to this. We first must hate ourselves as Jesus commanded.
