1 Corinthians 2:1-5 Christ is the substance

Christ, in his person, and offices, and sufferings, is the sum and substance of the gospel, and ought to be the great subject of a gospel minister's preaching, but not so as to leave out other parts of God's revealed truth and will. Paul preached the whole counsel of God. Few know the fear and trembling of faithful ministers, from a deep sense of their own weakness They know how insufficient they are, and are fearful for themselves. When nothing but Christ crucified is plainly preached, the…

Challenged by the good German.

I recently mentioned the reading of a great book as a wonderful way to stimulate your thinking and grow your mind.  Now I am more than halfway through BONHOEFFER: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy by Eric Metaxas, and I read something that gripped me, and I thought perhaps, just perhaps, it might you.  I have been reading this book at the gym, and I read this passage, then I reread it, then I…

Poem: Immortality

 

Ahhh... Immortality.

After the death of my earthly flesh,
my spirit will fully embrace it.
For I'm truly made
in my Creator's Image
and filled with His Divine presence.
How can anyone doubt...
The premise of my logic?

Ahhh... Immortality.

Poem: Show of Hands

Despite the differences of skin color

and our cultural upbringings,

we're more than brothers of Mankind -

Technically, we're kin.



Go to the mountain

preserved by ice and snow

where the revelation of Ararat's secret

is available for everyone to know.



For the ark's existence

proves the global flood story is true

and being our brother's keeper...

Is still a right thing to do.



Descended from Noah

are the many races of…

guided by faith, not by sight.

2Cor 5:7 Indeed, our lives are guided by faith, not by sight.

For it is by faith that we walk and not by sight.

For we live by believing and not by seeing.

We are a people who strive for the Promises of Our Father. By His Grace we have the benefit of the Sacrifice that Jesus made for us. Eph 2:8-10 God saved you by His Grace when you…

1 Corinthians 1:26-31 Not with the enticing words of man's wisdom

God did not choose philosophers, nor orators, nor statesmen, nor men of wealth, and power, and interest in the world, to publish the gospel of grace and peace. He best judges what men and what measures serve the purposes of his glory. Though not many noble are usually called by Divine grace, there have been some such in every age, who have not been ashamed of the gospel of Christ; and persons of every rank stand in need of pardoning grace. Often, a humble Christian, though poor as to this…

Words of The Day

Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for sending Jesus Christ to die on the cross for my sins. I acknowledge that I have sinned and I cannot save myself. I believe that Jesus Christ came to give me life and by faith I now choose to receive You into my life as my Lord and Savior. By the power of Your indwelling presence enable me to be the person You created me to be. I pray that You would grant me repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth so that I can experience my freedom in Jesus…

I was brought up to follow Christ...

I would like to share with you a book that I am reading. It was written in 1953 by Henrietta C. Mears titled "What the Bible Is All About". It's an easy-to-understand Survey of the Bible. The Billy Graham Crusade Edition...As I opened the book I noticed a question...Who Wrote The Creation Story Used By Moses? Here's what it says: No doubt it was written long before, maybe by…

1 Corinthians 1:17-25 Christ crucified is the foundation

Paul had been bred up in Jewish learning; but the plain preaching of a crucified Jesus, was more powerful than all the oratory and philosophy of the heathen world. This is the sum and substance of the gospel. Christ crucified is the foundation of all our hopes, the fountain of all our joys. And by his death we live. The preaching of salvation for lost sinners by the sufferings and death of the Son of God, if explained and faithfully applied, appears foolishness to those in the way to…

When We Pray

 

(Matthew 6:5-6) And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, they have their reward. 6But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in…

I was brought up to follow Christ...

"Is any one among you afflicted, ill-treated, suffering evil? He should pray." (James 5:13,  The Amplified Bible)

The Greek word translated afflicted doesn't mean the result of sickness and disease. It means "troubled." If you're in trouble, you need to pray. That's what the Word says. Notice it didn't say your pastor needs to pray for you or your friends need to pray…

1 Corinthians 1:10-16 Be of one mind

In the great things of religion be of one mind; and where there is not unity of sentiment, still let there be union of affection. Agreement in the greater things should extinguish divisions about the lesser. There will be perfect union in heaven, and the nearer we approach it on earth, the nearer we come to perfection. Paul and Apollos both were faithful ministers of Jesus Christ, and helpers of their faith and joy; but those disposed to be contentious, broke into parties. So liable are the…

1 Corinthians 1:1-9 dedicated and devoted to Christ

All Christians are by baptism dedicated and devoted to Christ, and are under strict obligations to be holy. But in the true church of God are all who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, and who call upon him as God manifest in the flesh, for all the blessings of salvation; who acknowledge and obey him as their Lord, and as Lord of all; it includes no other persons. Christians are distinguished from the profane and atheists, that they dare not live without prayer; and they…

No one

Dear Friends, I think no one who knows the individual will of God for their life can live happily, (Except the overall will of God that everyone should be saved and be happy). And no one can accept if God tells him what would happen in his future.. Pls respond With regards, Jayaseelan Samuel

Romans 5:20-21

 

By Christ and his righteousness, we have more and greater privileges than we lost by the offence of Adam. The moral law showed that many thoughts, tempers, words, and actions, were sinful, thus transgressions were multiplied. Not making sin to abound the more, but discovering the sinfulness of it, even as the letting in a…

Live Like Jesus: "But [Christ Jesus] made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men." (Philippians 2:7)

  The truth of this verse hasn't really dawned on most people. They mistakenly think that Jesus was able to work wonders, to perform miracles, and to live above sin because He had divine power that we don't…
