    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Dec 16, 2023
     | 1,188 views

    John the Baptist sits in jail, waiting for Justice to rain down upon Herod. Meanwhile Christ preaches Good News, rather than wrath. How can we rejoice when there is no justice in this world?

    Good Morning! As someone who grew up in a liturgical church, I realize that Lent and Advent can be easy to confuse.

     | 1,123 views

    We are justified by faith alone, but faith that saves is never alone; it issues in good works.

    “What use is it, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but he has no works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,” and yet you do not give them what is ...read more

    Jesus said we should love our enemies. But I don't even like them, why should I even want to show them love?

    OPEN: I’ve always loved limericks, and years ago I ran across this one: “There once were 2 cats from Kilkenny Each thought there was one cat too many They fought and they spit, and they clawed and they bit. Till instead of two cats (pause) there weren't any.” (Pulpit Helps 3/97 p. 8) Now that ...read more

    Discernment develops in a climate of humility. Suspicion thrives in pride. If your church is filled with pride, competition, and a religious spirit, it will also be filled with suspicion.

    But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. ( Hebrews 5:14) Brethren, we are dealing with a crafty enemy who always desires to keep on fighting the wrong battles. He is so cunning that if you are ...read more
