Have we experienced or even witnessed some kind of miracle in our lives? The Bible has several examples of miracles that have been performed. What can we learn from these?
Sermons
Something to Keep
Despite tremendous material success in life, in the end, everything is left behind. Yet, there are those who are able to keep something from this life, and that is because of their relationship with God.
Ways of Knowing
Christians are obligated to continually learn and grow in the knowledge of the Truth. What is the right way to develop that knowledge? What are the ways of learning that are ineffective and need to be avoided? Unless we learn how to build our knowledge of the Truth in the right way, we are doomed to be ignorant.
Safety
How do we plan for safety in the threat of imminent danger? What are the things that we try to protect? If we seek true safety, we must learn where to find it while avoiding the trap of false security.
The Thessalonian Struggle
The building of the Thessalonian church exemplifies Christian character and a “first love” attitude. But that initial desire to follow Christian ideals turned lackluster in the latter examples of this church. We can easily fall into the same idle attitude if we don’t take Paul’s warnings to heart.
An Aberration
The Promise of Pentecost
Before Abraham, before Adam and Eve—before time began, God made a promise. The promise was eternal life for His children, and Pentecost points to the fulfillment of this promise for those who believe and have the faith of Jesus Christ.
Vessels of God
Many times the Bible mentions vessels or cups in both physical and spiritual realms. The Bible enjoin’s us to become vessels worthy of being used by God. What can we learn by looking at what God instructs us the use of these cups?
How Is God’s Holy Spirit ONE Spirit?
On the annual Feast Day of Pentecost, God gave His Holy Spirit to the New Testament Church. The Bible tells us that God’s Holy Spirit dwells in a true Christian, leading and motivating him or her. But what does this mean? Does only the Father have Holy Spirit, emanating from Him? Or does Jesus Christ have Holy Spirit as well, flowing out of Him? If so, which Holy Spirit dwells in a true Christian? The Holy Spirit of the Father, the Holy Spirit of Christ, or both? Who gives the Holy Spirit to a Christian? The Father, the Son, or both? And if it is true that a true Christian has received the Spirit of the Father and the Spirit of Christ, how can the Holy Spirit be ONE Spirit?
Strangers in the Night
According to the Bible, true Christians are strangers and pilgrims in the darkness of this world. But while they are in the world, they are not to be of this world and of the night. Rather, they are to be lights shining in the darkness. What practical consequence should that have for us?
