What does it mean to be “born again?” The Lord Jesus Christ said, “Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God” (John 3:3). To be born again means a person’s life is changed for the better. The Holy Bible tells us “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold the new has come” (2 Corinthians 15:17). This means that we will not habitually commit sin. The Bible says “No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning because he […]

How able is God? The Bible has the answer. In concluding his prayer to God, the apostle Paul prays, “Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to Him be glory in the Church  and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen”(Ephesians 3:20,21). Note these words, “to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us. The KJV reads: ”unto Him who is able do exceedingly abundantly […]

We live in a world of rampant ungodliness and the Bible tells it exactly as it is. In his second letter to Timothy, the Apostle Paul talks about the threatening and dangerous conditions existing in the present age we are living. He writes, “But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance […]

The word “unworthy” generally means undeserving of attention, respect, support, or consideration. Are you feeling utterly unworthy in any way? Do you feel defeated? Are you sinking to the depths of woe? Do you feel that God has abandon you? Have you ever felt to throw up your hands in despair? Are you feeling depressed or dispirited? Maybe one or more of these questions apply to you or someone you know. To be truthful, absolutely no one is worthy. However, we can become worthy through what the Lord Jesus Christ accomplished for us on the Cross. “For our sake He […]

How is your faith? Has it found a “resting place?” Are you willing to share your faith? Generally, faith is “complete confidence and trust in a person or thing.” However, for a Christian faith is “strong belief and confidence” in God Almighty—the God of the Holy Scriptures. The Bible gives us the best explanation of faith: “Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the people of old received their commendation. By faith we understand that the universe was created by the Word of God, so that what is seen was […]

Come with me to the Cross of Calvary where on that Cross, God in His infinite wondrous love and mercy provided His Son Jesus Christ as the one and only perfect sacrifice for sin died. He died that you and I can have eternal life by believing in Him. The Bible says, “Knowing that you were redeemed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but […]

How diligent are you in prayer? Is prayer a reality with you? When last have you really prayed? These are questions that some of us need to ask ourselves. It has been said that Prayer is one of the most neglected duties of some Christians. The English poet Alfred Lord Tennyson said, “Pray for my soul. More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of.” Prayer is “drawing near to God” and James writes, “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you” (James 4:8). Prayer means having confidence in the God to whom you pray. This […]
