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. […]
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 […]
This question has been asked in many ways throughout the centuries. Even when Jesus was alive, witnesses described events differently. So, we shouldn’t be surprised to read in the gospels recorded by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, and in letters written by Paul, Peter and others, reports of events that seem to be contradictory. Eyewitnesses […]
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 […]
Christians understand that God exists in three personal forms. These three, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, are collectively called The Trinity. While all part of the Godhead, each is distinct but is in a loving communion with each other. The third person of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit, is described as a counselor and a […]
We have just celebrated the resurrection of Jesus and know, from historical accounts, that more than 500 saw him alive during a 40-day period before he left this earth. The question, then, is will he keep his promise about coming again? The Bible tells us that Jesus is actually coming again on two different occasions. […]
Sharing your Christian faith involves risk and potential failure. Sometimes it could even be an embarrassment. 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 […]
