What Shall I Do?
The Bible records momentous events in the lives of individuals who had to make decisions to do or to not do things in their lives regarding following God’s way. For us, these lessons find application in our own lives and our opportunity to inherit eternal life.

The Book of Malachi
The prophet Malachi addresses a regrettable situation in ancient Judah, but the book is also a prophecy for our time today. As ancient Judah had become indifferent, discontent, bored and unsatisfied, so we see today the same attitude towards God and His Law–even, to an extent, in the Church. We are to become zealous and dedicated Christians, rather than treating God’s requirements for us as a burden and contemptible.

Salt
Although salt is a common mineral, it has played an enormous role in history. Salt also plays an important part in our christian lives. Salt is the opposite of leaven. It helps to keep us pure from corruption. It’s important to remember that true christians are to be the salt of the earth.
Commitment
There are two important decisions that one makes in their lives which show commitment: baptism and marriage. Both correlate with each other since, to be married, we have to be baptized and receive God’s holy spirit. If we want to be in God’s kingdom, we need to receive His holy spirit and be married to Him so we can receive everlasting life.
The Good Samaritan
Why did Christ’s “Parable of the Good or Merciful Samaritan,” as recorded in Luke, chapter 10, have such a tremendous impact on the society of His time? What was so revolutionary and provocative about this parable, which teaches us how to love our neighbor? Why is it still so relevant and meaningful for us today? Who were the Samaritans? Do they still exist? Why did many of the Jews hate them so much? And how did Jesus show that He refused to be a part of that kind of antagonism and prejudice?

Josiah
Josiah’s evil father Amon–was assasinated. Josiah’s grandfather Manasseh–ws one of the most evil men in the Bible. Yet, Josiah feared God and under his reign Judah had peace, prosperity and reform–among the happiest years experienced by Judah! We look at Josiah in 3 points: 1)background, 2)reign 3)death–by meddling.
The Mount of Olives
All around the world, people believe in extraterrestrials. When Jesus Christ returns, the Bible reveals that much of a deceived mankind will war against Him believing that He is an invading alien. However, Jesus will enter the earth’s realm with great majesty and irresistible power, and He will descend to the Mount of Olives. This location plays a prominent role in both biblical history and prophecy. Because it is an important focus point, understanding what the Bible reveals about the Mount of Olives is crucial for Christians.
