We begin learning about God’s grace in the Book of Genesis, particularly in the account of the flood. The peoples of the world abounded in wickedness to the degree that every thought was only evil continually, but one man “found grace in the eyes of the Lord” (Gen. 6:5-8). Noah, a “preacher of righteousness,” was saved from the flood by the grace…

The English word “church” is used at least eighty times in the New Testament. As often as this word is used in the Scriptures, you would think that we would have a proper concept of what the church is, but such is not the case. In fact, we could probably say that most people do not have a Biblical understanding of the…
Have you ever stopped to consider why you are a member of your church? Or why you hold certain beliefs? In a world that is filled with religiosity, it is vitally important for us test all things and hold fast to that which is good because many false prophets have gone out into the world (1 Thessalonians 5:21-22; 1 John 4:1). With…
In the book of Psalms you will see the word “trust” being used on a repeated basis. As we consider the idea of trust from the book of Psalms we will notice the different aspects of trust. For example in Psalm 112:7 we read about reliant trust. A heart that is fixed on trusting God is a reliant heart and a reliant…
We are probably all guilty of procrastinating from time to time but there are some things that God wants us to take care of today. In Hebrews 3:7-8 the Holy Spirit said, “To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness.” God wants us to hear His…
Why Be a Christian May 15, 2016 In Isaiah 62:1-2, Jehovah God promised to give His people a new name. We see this promise fulfilled in the book of Acts when those who obeyed the gospel were called Christians (Acts 11:26; 26:28). Sadly, this divinely bestowed title has been traded in for sectarian designations given by men, many of which are not…
Dealing With Discouragement May 8, 2016 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. -Psalms 46:1 Many of us have experienced feelings of disappointment, disheartenment, loss of hope and lack of confidence. At times discouragement is so severe we feel like we’re drowning and cannot escape. Often we try to deal with life’s disappointments on our own…
Walking In Wisdom- Part 1 April 10, 2016 Wisdom is the power of right judgment, the ability to discern any situation and know what to do, or see how a particular course of action will turn out. Imagine the happiness and success you could have with a good dose of wisdom (Proverbs 3:13). The book of Proverbs is insightful because it offers…
The Suffering Savior April 3, 2016 In Acts chapter eight, we learn of the evangelist Philip’s interaction with an Ethiopian man whose curiosity was sparked by Isaiah’s writings about the silent sufferer in Isaiah 53. Beginning from this Scripture, Philip “preached unto him Jesus” (Acts 8:35). First, Isaiah revealed that the word that best describes the man of Isaiah 53 is “insignificant.”…
