The Love of God
Our aim is to please God and do what He commands, to do less is to fail and fall short in the end of heaven. If you have any questions about what we do or the way we do things if you will ask someone they will either answer your questions or they can put you in contact with someone who can. We have several services that we would like to offer to you, one is a Bible Correspondence course and the other is a personal Bible study. There will be an open Bible and...Continue reading
Judas
Character studies of Bible personalities are beneficial studies. There are those whom we have studied over and over again. We glean new insights to their lives and lessons to be applied to our lives each time we study them. Application of these lessons to our lives is really one of the purposes of any Bible study. We all like to study those individuals who will encourage us in our daily walk toward heaven. There is a time when we need to study those individuals who have a negative life. The purpose in studying these individuals...Continue reading
Questions
Contained within the book of Psalms are several questions about who is close to God. Psalm 15:1 asks, “Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? Who shall dwell in thy holy hill?” Psalm 24:3 asks, “Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who shall stand in his holy place?” In Psalm 15 when the question is asked, “Who shall abide in thy tabernacle” one must remember that the temple was not built yet. We must remember chronology when reading the Bible. The temple was not built until Solomon was king. Therefore we...
How Do You Feel About Others?
There is much contained in the Bible about how we should feel and treat others. The Golden Rule deals with how we should treat others, “Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that mean should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets” (Matthew 7:12). The parable of the Good Samaritan is answering the question of, who is my neighbor (Luke 10:29). Jesus then asks the question, “Which of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves? (Luke 10:36). The lawyer answered...
Flu Shot
This is the time of year when many get their flu shot. The doctors warn many whose health is questionable to partake of this shot every year. There are those that are young who need it. There are those who are middle aged who need it. And there are those who are more mature who are to get this shot. It will do well to take this shot so that one will not get the flu. Likewise there is a flu shot for apostasy. Listen to what Paul discusses with Timothy, “If thou put the...Continue reading
No Man Is An Island
“For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself” (Romans 14:7). Jesus taught, “Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto...Continue reading
Workers Together
1 Corinthians 3:9 which states, “For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.” Paul uses a building and a field (NKJV) to illustrate the work the church is to be doing. Each system of a building is to be doing its work. The electrical system must do its work. The plumbing system must do its work. The framing must do its work also. Each system has a work to do and must do their work. In the field it is the same. Each part of the field must...Continue reading
There Is Nothing New Under the Sun
The writer of Ecclesiastes said, “The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun” (Ecclesiastes 1:9). This was true then and the same is still true today. Consider when Eve was tempted. She “saw that the tree was good for good, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise” (Genesis 3:6). When Jesus had fasted for forty days He was then tempted. “The...
Who is the Devil?
As Christians we are to put on the whole armor of God. (Ephesians 6: 10ff). We are not just to put on the armor but the Bible says we are to put on the whole armor of God. The reason we are to put on the whole armor of God is because of the devil. We are to put on the whole armor of God because of the wiles of the devil (6:11). We are to put on the whole armor of God because we are not in a physical fight, but we are in...
Charge!
When we first hear this word there may be different mental pictures develop within our mind. Paul uses this word with Timothy a number of times. There are different Greek words Paul uses that are translated “charge” in our New Testament but they have basically the same meaning. The meaning is “command.” Now go back to our pictures developed in our minds, with this meaning. A man might think of the command to charge an enemy. A woman might think of a plastic card with items to purchase. It is still a command! With this...Continue reading
