The Vision of Jesus (Luke 10:21-24)

The vision of Jesus is that all kinds of people, not just a certain segment of winners, should enjoy God’s favor.

Cristo de la Concordia (Christ of Peace) in Cochabamba, Bolivia At that time Jesus was filled with joy by the Holy Spirit and said, “Father, Lord of heaven and earth! I thank you because you have shown to the unlearned what you have hidden from the wise and learned. Yes, Father, this was how you were pleased to have it happen. “My Father has given me all things. No one knows who the Son is…

True Protection Is In Christ Alone.

MaryEllen Montville “But I am not surprised! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.” –2 Corinthians 11:14. A recent online communication from a well-recognized U.S. bank warned their customers of a significant increase in phishing scams in the banking industry; this, they say, is due to the rise in both online and bank app usage. They said that in 2023 alone, a staggering $10…

God Uses Bible Teachers to Help Us Grow Spiritually

Almost anyone can be used by the Lord to communicate divine revelation. Even a jackass can be the mouthpiece of God (Num 22:28-30). Biblically, Christians are directed to “teach and admonish one another” (Col 3:16), which shows that all believers can teach and counsel one another with the Word of God. Of course, this assumes they’ve been “constantly nourished on the words of the faith and of the…

grove of trees

You said that all of this was yours;through Your spoken word, the water came;at your request, land arose. You called up trees and bees andbeasts of all size. All this, where I sit and ponder,is proof that Your words create life and wonder. Everywhere, I see Your hand. Manmight be Your grandest work, but there isso much more in the seas, in the air, in the dirt.Who am I to question whether the…

Context Matters

Balancing Historical Meaning And Personal Application In Scripture Brent Pollard While exploring devotional content on Bible Gateway, I encountered an article by Kathie Lee Gifford discussing God’s various names. She references Isaiah 43.19, highlighting God’s promise of something new and encouraging readers to remember His continual blessings. Though uplifting, this perspective requires closer…

Thoughts on the Great Commission: Our Finite Tendency to Miss What God is Doing in Our Time

What are we missing? What dogmatic understanding have we clung to that is correct in some aspect, but not completely accurate?

Go into all the world and tell the gospel to all creation ‭As I read through the New Testament this year as part of my daily reading plan, I have finished the Gospels, and I am well into the Book of Acts. As I read through the Gospels, I was mindful of the context in location, time period, and the history of the area and the people of Israel, surrounding nations, and the Greco-Roman world…

Divine Order in God's Kingdom: Importance of Apostolic Authority and Ordinances

One of the criticisms against the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the belief that since the time of Jesus Christ and the original apostles, the Christian Church no longer needs modern-day prophets and apostles.

Photo by Kieran Yates on Unsplash The great historian Will Durrant once said, “In my youth I wanted freedom. In my mature years I want order.” There is nothing so important in the kingdom of God as order; yet the tendency today is to resist law and order, which must be maintained in the kingdom of God if we are to be pleasing in the sight of the Lord. “Be one,” the Lord said, “and if you are not…

Is The Bible God's Word? -- David W. Hester

How shall we view the Bible? Is it just one of many “holy books”—no better or worse than, say, the Qu’ran of Islam, the Reg Veda of Hinduism, or the Book of Mormon? Is it nothing more than an outstanding piece of literature—on par with the works of Shakespeare, “inspired” in the way that any great literary work is composed? Or, is the Bible something much more—the very Word of God itself? The way…

The Truth About You (John 8:21-30)

Our self-identification matters.

Once more Jesus said to them, “I am going away, and you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come.” This made the Jews ask, “Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, ‘Where I go, you cannot come’?” But he continued, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not…

God In The Footnotes?

What do we do with the parts of the Bible that seem to have been moved to a footnote? Do we ignore them? Do we excuse them? Or can we use them to point people to the glory of God?

Revelation 18: Fallen, Fallen is Babylon

The angel’s declaration that Babylon is fallen comes as prophetic past tense—in other words, Babylon’s fall is a foregone fact, Almighty God has passed judgement, there is nothing that can stop Babylon’s inexorable end #Revelation18 #FallenFallenisBabylon

After these things, I saw another angel coming down out of the sky, having immense authority, and the earth was illuminated by his glory. Then, he cried out in a forceful voice, saying, “Fallen, Fallen, Babylon the Great, now become a habitat of demons, and a prison of all foul spirits, and a prison of all foul birds, and a prison of all foul and dangerous creatures, and detested.” For they…

Guidance for the End Times: A Study of the Acts (Part 9)

“And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.” (Acts 2:43)  By this point in the book of Acts, the called-out ones (the church) had expanded by 3,000 people (verse 41). This fact is evidence of a miracle. When has it been recorded in history that 3,000 people had a life changing event that had no association with violence? 3,000 people had their lives…
