The Priority Of Life

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jul 20, 2007

Jesus did the will of the Father and finished His work. He knows His purpose in life, set the right priority, and has a passion for the lost. We want to know our purpose, set the priority and develop the passion exemplified by Christ.

Jesus says, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent me and to finish His work.” • Of course, this couldn’t mean that Jesus do not have to eat. • Jesus uses this incident to highlight to His disciples what is important. Someone said, “The greatest danger in life is in permitting the urgent ...read more

After The Election

Contributed by Troy Borst on Nov 6, 2004

God does not care about the economy or missing WMDs or anything of the sort. God cares about the moral fabric of our nation and that moral fabric was up for election this past Tuesday. You can believe it or not, but it is true. The Question of the Day:
