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. […]
This is an interesting two-part question. It’s essentially asking what is the kingdom of God and how can someone receive it. Consequently, we will answer the receive part first and describe the kingdom of God next week. So let’s see what the Scriptures say about receiving the kingdom as a little child. Jesus said, “Let […]
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.

Yet there is an urgency about sharing your faith in Christ with those you care about because no one knows if they have a tomorrow. Without faith in Christ, if they die, they are condemned to eternal separation from […]
Some Bible scholars think today’s resistance to the Gospel has always been due to the “hardness of men’s hearts”. (Matthew 13). Also an obstacle is delay…people just put off until later to even think about their relationship to God. Today much of society (humanity) worships idols. Materialism has replaced spirituality which has led people to […]
If one could keep all the commandments perfectly throughout his or her lifetime, then he or she would be welcomed into the family of God. But that’s not going to happen. We learn in the Bible that no one is able to live by the law set forth by God. People try to keep the […]
According to the Bible, marriage was given as a gift of God at the time of creation. (Genesis 1-3) The Creator made humans in His own image, both male and female.
