The Love of God
Have you ever tried to understand the extent of God’s love for man? The truth is, we can’t completely grasp the depths of God’s love for us. His love is infinite. Our comprehension is finite. It seems that true devotion to God is not attainable without a personal awareness of God’s love. I must understand […]
A Time for Renewal
Spring is a beautiful time for renewal. As the earth is rejuvenating itself, it may be time for you to consider the same. Romans 12:1-2 says, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, […]
Applying and Abusing God’s Grace
The grace of God is generally defined as unmerited favor. While this probably is an overly simplified characterization, it is, nonetheless, adequate for our purposes here. But even with this basic definition, we understand God’s grace to be phenomenal in its nature, magnanimous in its scope, and overwhelming in its effect. Is it any wonder […]
An Invisible Enemy
Doubled over and choking, they staggered to hospitals by the thousands, crying for help and refuge from a colorless cloud of gas that turned Bhopal, India into a tomb on a terrible December day in 1984. “We have been working nonstop to treat the people and still they are coming,” said one volunteer who tried […]
Amazing Grace!
The good news of the gospel is that God has the power to transform lives. We have undoubtedly known alcoholics, drug addicts, adulterers, thieves, and others who have been converted to Christ. This ability to change people’s lives comes from God’s amazing grace. Grace may be defined as God’s loving forgiveness, by which He grants […]
A Little Change Never Hurts
Paul is a good example of a man who was wrong, but then changed his mind. He said in Acts 22:3-5, “I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner […]
Return to the Lord
Built in to the message of the prophets was the appeal to repent. These men were sent by God to expose sin and urge the guilty to repent. Often the appeal was framed as a challenge to return to the Lord (Isaiah 6:10; Jeremiah 3:1; Malachi 3:7). For instance, Joel’s appeal to Judah was for […]
Personal Evangelism Conclusion
I pray that these articles on personal evangelism have been exhortive and informative. I also pray that we will all take them to heart and strive our very best from this time forward to spread the gospel as we all should. Posts can be written and preaching done about the subject, but you must be […]
Sowing the Seed of the Kingdom
Problems arise in any endeavor when we forget the substance of our work. In the Lord, our work is presenting the gospel to as many people as possible. All the Lord has ever asked us to do is “plant” and “water.” It is His part of the work to “give the increase” (1 Corinthians 3:6-7). […]
Blinded by the God of This Age
When you’re blinded, you can’t experience the full reality of all that’s around you, even though others can see it clearly. You may feel you’re experiencing all that there is to life, yet you may be unaware that you’re missing what God really wants for you. You may even be in danger because of your […]
