When we are confronted with the terror of war either personally or vicariously through the media and stories told by others, we begin to wonder if these are the last days described in the Bible. They could be. Certainly, for those killed by the terrorists and those who have died and will die during the […]
At one time or another, we all face difficulties. We get so caught up in our problems we fail to realize that there are many things for which we can be thankful, starting with our very existence. Almost 30 years ago Capi, a young teenager in Rwanda, ran from her home as her parents and […]
The person of Jesus Christ and the Holy Bible differentiates Christianity. The cross of Christ forever bridged the gap between sinners and a Holy God. The Bible, rightly called the book that made our world, has inspired the best of Western civilization: science, technology, education, and political and economic freedom. Because we are made in […]
Yes, but often we’re not listening. God created man and woman in his image, that is he gave them the capacity to communicate in a way that is different from all the other creatures in the world. He gave them the capacity to interact with the creator of not just the world, but the universe […]
Last week we wrote about what it means to be childlike when it comes to discovering God. This week we’ll focus on what it means to receive God’s Kingdom. To begin with, we need to know what the Bible means when it refers to the Kingdom of God. A kingdom assumes a king or sovereign. […]

These are two of the greatest mysteries of life. The answer to the first question is partly based on medical evidence or the lack of it as the soul cannot be found within the physical body. We get some clues as to what faculties or components of a person could be eternal and reside in […]
God created man and woman as rational beings with a mind capable of logical reasoning and capable of discovering truth in all the elements of life and in the culture in which one lives. A Christian, at the moment of belief in Jesus as Savior, receives the marvelous and supernatural gift of the Holy Spirit. […]
Christians have been ending their prayers, “In Jesus name,” since Jesus’ resurrection and ascension into heaven. Why have they been doing this is a good question. The simple answer is found several times in the Scriptures. In the Gospel of John 14:13&14 Jesus said, “I will do anything you ask in my name…. You may […]
Few events in antiquity are as well documented as the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Anointed One. All of Christianity hinges on the answer to this question. If there was no resurrection, there would be no Christianity. Consider this: there were over 500 witnesses to Jesus’ return to life after being crucified […]
