What is your life?

How many of us have ever asked ourselves this question which is asked in the Scriptures? And the answer follows, which may not be what some of us care to hear. No mortal man or woman can guarantee his or her own life. The Scripture makes it clear, “Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”—yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then […]

The God of Mercy and Grace

Every human being since Adam (God’s first created man) needs mercy and grace, whether it is acknowledged or not. The problem is that without exception, every human being has sinned. We read: “For there is no distinction; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:22,23). Sin means “to miss the mark,” that is, anything that falls short of God’s glory is sin. God’s word declares: “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all” (Isaiah 53:6). In his commentary, William MacDonald wrote: “The […]

God’s way or your way?

Which way is the right way in life? Generally, it can be said that there are people who think and believe that, in many situations, their way is always the right way or the best way. Remember Frank Sinatra of yesteryear fame of whom it was said, “he did it his way.” We have also heard it said of others, “It is either his way or the high way.” Some of us may have had to deal with this type of person. When it comes to heaven, how do you hope to get there? Well, you may ask, what that […]

Our Great High Priest

The Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Eternal God, is the believer’s Great High Priest. The letter to the Hebrews states, “Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in […]

“He Is Not Here!”

Each and every Easter season Christians around the world rejoice and give thanks to the Almighty God for the death, burial, and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on the Cross. This was the purpose for which Jesus came into the world. The apostle Paul in his letter to the Corinthian Church stated: “For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received; that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that He was buried, that He was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures” (1 Corinthians 15:3,4). Note, “I delivered to […]

The Eternal God

The God of the Bible, and the Creator of the universe, has always existed. God existed before everything. And He, as God, brought all things into existence. He is past, present, and future. God doesn’t owe His existence to anyone or anything. As proof of His “self-existence,” Moses, said to God, “If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what shall I say to them?” God said to Moses, “I AM WHOM I AM.” And he said, “Say this […]

Moments with the Word

God will bless and honor the person who takes time to read the Bible (the Holy Scriptures) and learn from it how live in a world that is in utter confusion, disarray, and disorder. Mortal man thinks he has the answers and solutions for every problem he faces. Why is it them do we need courts of law, judges, jurors, and law enforcement. Mortal man cannot govern himself.  Over many years of living, both Christians and non-christians alike, have proven over and over again that the Bible definitely has the answers and solutions for just about everything in life. And […]

A Rugged and Old Cross

The four gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John complement each other in recording the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus Christ. We read, “And when they came to the place which is called The Skull, there they crucified Him, and the criminals, one on His right and one on His left” (Luke 23:33). “The Skull” is also referred to as “Golgotha” or “Calvary.” In the Roman Empire, death on a cross was the method of punishment for certain criminals. Jesus died on a Roman Cross, not for any crime He had committed, but for the sins of mankind. And this was God’s […]

God or man?

Who is God and what is man? Who created who? Have you ever asked yourself these questions, or given thought to them? It is worth noting that we are living at a time when to some right is wrong, and wrong is right. One can hardly watch, read or listen to the news without the mention of evil, wickedness, murder, corruption, immorality, selfishness, greed, dishonesty. And the list goes on ad infinitum. One may therefore ask, who is responsible, or how did things get to this stage? Who has the answer, God or man? Let us consult the Holy Scriptures […]

The Glorious Church

The Church of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is the object and focus of His love. The apostle Paul writes to the Ephesians, “Christ loved the Church and gave Himself up for her, that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that He might present the Church to Himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish” (Ephesians 5:25-27). Some translations read: “That He might present it to Himself aglorious Church.” Listed in the text are some noteworthy things about Christ and His […]
