Lessons From a Genealogy (Ruth 4:18-22)

By listing someone’s descendants in writing, it indicates an ongoing developing story which has happened, and continues to develop up to the present time, and even into the future.

Now these are the descendants of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron, Hezron of Ram, Ram of Amminadab, Amminadab of Nahshon, Nahshon of Salmon, Salmon of Boaz, Boaz of Obed, Obed of Jesse, and Jesse of David. (New Revised Standard Version) No, I didn’t make a mistake about what the verses are for today from the Revised Common Lectionary. Yes, the Old Testament lesson is a brief genealogy.…

The Gift

James F. Gauss December 25, 2023 By nature, and by culture, we as Americans, like to give and receive gifts.  We like to, if we can afford to, give gifts, not only at Christmas, our favorite time, but also on a person’s birthday, graduation, wedding and many other special occasions.  We also like to receive gifts at those times too.  We may even give or receive gifts for no particular reason at…

Enjoy & Shine the Christ of Glory as the Excellent Treasure in our Earthen Vessel

We need to enjoy and shine forth the Christ of glory as the excellent treasure in our earthen vessel. As believers in Christ, we have this treasure in earthen vessels that the excellency of the power may be of God and not out of us; the Christ of glory is the priceless treasure in our earthen vessel, and when we behold Him and look into the index of His eyes, we are infused with His preciousness…

I Am Sure of My Salvation

I am confident of my salvation, and this confidence is not based on my own efforts or worthiness but on the unchanging character and promises of God. God is a God of integrity, and His nature guarantees the fulfillment of His Word. As Scripture affirms, “God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should change His mind. Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken,…

David: A King of Contrasts

1 David built houses for himself in the city of David. And he prepared a place for the ark of God and pitched a tent for it. 2 Then David said that no one but the Levites may carry the ark of God, for the Lord had chosen them to carry the ark of the Lord and to minister to him forever. 3 And David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem to bring up the ark of the Lord to its place, which he had…

Trusting the Lord in Times of Suffering: An Expository Study of Alma 14

In our journey of faith, suffering can often feel insurmountable. It's in these moments that we must remember Christ's example and His ultimate sacrifice.

Alma the Younger and Amulek are led away from the fire that has consumed the believers in Ammonihah. Suffering is an inevitable part of the human experience, especially for believers striving to walk the path of righteousness. In Alma 14, we find a profound example of enduring faith amidst unimaginable trials. Alma and Amulek faced severe persecution and witnessed the martyrdom of the faithful,…

W3D4: Trusting God's Timing on the journey to get back.

As I prepare for today and look towards what’s next, I cling to God’s Word and His commands and promises to help me walk by faith even when I can’t see it just yet. I am needing to lean into God rather than my own understanding, acknowledging Him as the author and perfector of my faith. Genesis 31 spoke to me to “get out and go back” and then as I was stepping out, Numbers 13 spoke to me to trust…

A Reason To Hope (Ruth 2:15-23)

Regardless of who we are, whether rich or poor, old or young, we can be gracious.

When she got up to glean, Boaz instructed his young men, “Let her glean even among the standing sheaves, and do not reproach her. You must also pull out some handfuls for her from the bundles and leave them for her to glean, and do not rebuke her.” So she gleaned in the field until evening. Then she beat out what she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley. She picked it up and came…

Two Vital Steps to Persevere in Trials

Two Vital Steps to Persevere in Trials Many times suffering invades our lives, even crisis at times. If the Bible refers to life as a race, it is in these times where it seems more like a cross country race up a mountain. Around every turn, it seems as if the end just gets farther and farther away. The trail can seem narrow, the gravel loose, and the breeze swift. A fall surely would e…

Why God isn't Raining Down His Wrath on Sinners Today

Main Reason Not one person today (neither for the past two millennia) can be called a Jew under a performance based covenant (contract) where they have to do their part (of the contract/perform) failing which, they have to bear the consequences of God’s judgment. God Does Not Lie 2. If God was raining down His wrath/judgment today (as many think he is) on sinners/the world, it would make 1…

2024- What's Your Word Heading into this Year?

This “Tradition” started a couple years ago (in 2022) with a group of friends from a Bible Study group I unexpectedly joined in October 2021. I say “unexpectedly” because I wasn’t looking for a group to join, I only went to be supportive of a friend who wanted to check it out, at the last minute one evening. So I went and ended up joining the group. Reflecting on this and knowing who God is, this…
