The Bible

Authored by silling on Mon, Jun 11 2012 - 04:58 PM

I was listening to Pastor Greg Laurie last night teaching on the Bible. The Bible is God's word and if you want to know His will, you must go to the word of God. God is not writing new revelation, but has given us what we need in His word. Search the Word to know God, to know the truth, and to know how to live. ...

Authored by TheElizabethCompany on Sun, Aug 26 2012 - 07:08 PM

TheElizabethCompany's avatar

I was listening to a gospel song on the radio some time ago with these words in the first stanza: I’m all churched out, hurt and abused.   This song, “Take Me to the King” by Tamela Mann, is a beautiful statement of worship, praise and reaching for the God of mercy – the King of whom she sings. And while it is a ...

GOD Dwells In The Hearts of HIS People! Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty. We in America have a freedom that you just don’t find in the rest of the world. We have freedom of speech, freedom to vote, freedom to live and go where and when we please. But most importantly we have the freedom to worship. There are many types of ...

The Church of Thyatira was rebuked for allowing the Jezebel spirit to operate (Rev. 2:20).It is hard to understand why pastors, elders, ...

What would we do?

This morning in "My Utmost for His Highest", Dr. Chambers wrote that sanctification "will cost an intense narrowing of all interests on earth, and an immense broadening of all interests in God." What a profound statement! How many of us have thought of the sanctification process in this way? To narrow our interests on earth; ...

No regrets!

I wonder how many of us really think about the fact that, as the Apostle Paul says, our life is just a vapor? When compared to eternity it is just that. We have this life and this life only; one shot at life and that is all. How many of us are using that shot wisely? I mean, are we living each day for the purpose that God created us, to glorify ...

Richard Owen Roberts, in his book Repentance: The First Word of The Gospel, writes, "If you can't see that there is something more to God than you already know, if you do not realize that there is more to be experienced than you have experienced, if you do not long for more of His power to touch your world than you have seen, then there has ...

As numerous recent studies now indicate, a remarkably large percentage of women describe themselves as increasingly unhappy. This issue came to light last month in a fascinating essay by Maureen Dowd of The New York Times. Dowd, whose columns often reveal the nation's Zeitgeist, cited the fact that a number of major studies indicate that " ...

One of the problems we as Christians have in our relationships with others, be they friends, family, or spouse, is that we see each other as sinners who are saved rather than saints who sin. There is a big difference between the two and that difference can impact how we relate to one another. In the book, Truefaced, the authors state that if we ...

Trust and Obey, or Obey and Trust?

Authored by boomervet on Mon, Sep 21 2009 - 10:35 PM

boomervet's avatar

"Trust and obey" or "obey and trust", does the order of the words make a difference? According to the authors of the book "TrueFaced", it does. It is their belief that placing obedience before trust locks us into a mindset of obeying to please God, to earn His favor, His pleasure, a kind of works based faith. We can ...

Max Lucado writes about the Apostle John in his book "No Wonder They Call Him Savior": "One gets the impression that to John, Jesus was above all a loyal companion. Messiah? Yes. Son of God? Indeed. Miracle worker? That, too. But more than anything Jesus was a pal. Someone you could go camping with or bowling with or count the stars ...

Wisdom...we all need it especially in the times in which we are living. But where does it come from and how do we get it? The Bible tells us that wisdom comes from the Lord. James 1:5 says that if we lack wisdom let us ask of God and He will give it to us. Proverbs 8:34 - 35 says that the man who listens to wisdom is blessed and that whoever finds ...

Kingdom Expansion

Authored by boomervet on Tue, Sep 08 2009 - 05:51 AM

boomervet's avatar

It is the desire of every pastor for his church to grow numerically. The question becomes, "Why?" By that I mean is it to have more people so you can build more and bigger buildings? Is it to pay the bills? Is it to impress people? Or, is it so that we can do more for the Kingdom? How many of our churches and pastors today have a Kingdom ...

Passion Lost?

This morning as I was having my quiet time I had to ask myself the question, "God where is our passion for your Kingdom?" I guess the question was sparked after logging on to Facebook and noticing all of the posts, especially from my Christian friends. The passion they seem to have to write, comment, and just share some of the happenings in their ...
