You should want to trust in something or someone that is true and checks out with reality. In the Christian faith, Jesus Christ is the object of a person’s faith. Jesus’ life teachings, miracles, death on […]
The Bible explains what is known as the virgin birth. She became pregnant not through a man, but through a supernatural act of God. “This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be […]
One legacy of the modern world is the feeling that to believe something, there must be conclusive evidence, so conclusive that no one can possibly doubt. This is not realistic. Every day we make decisions based upon deep, unconscious and sometimes incomplete understanding. It is called faith. So it is with God. The existence of […]
The Apostle Paul, wrote to Timothy, a missionary partner who, at the time, was the leading pastor in the Asia Minor city of Ephesus. In his letter, Paul was providing guidance for leadership and reminded Timothy of the importance of The Bible as God’s inspired Word.
