Love Always

if you believe in god, it is not to difficult to believe that He is concerned about the universe and all the events on this earth. But the really staggering message of the bible is that this same God cares deeply about you and your identity and the events of your life......We have missed the full impact of the Gospel if we have not discovered what it is to be ourselves, loved by God irreplaceable in His sight, unique among our fellowmen.

He who keeps you will not allow your foot to slip, He who keeps you in slumber. Behold, He who keeps Israel will neither slumber are nor sleep. The Lord is your shade on your right hand.

I've Come to Bless You...

This is a true story:

There was a pastor who pastored in another country. He was in his office at his church, alone, sitting at his desk. A man, that he had never seen before, walked in to his office.

The pastor stood to his feet and said, "Can I help you?"

The man was dressed nice. He looked normal. Looked no different than anyone else. He nodded and said, "No. I've come to bless you."

The pastor replied, "Please. Take a…

Have it your way

This article is written in the spirit of love. It is not meant to be argumentative or arrogant. Its purpose is to raise the question to those that think they are in the faith to examine their hearts and know they are truly in the faith. We all must search our hearts and know that we truly are saved by the blood of Christ. If the blood of Christ covers our sins the results of that faith will be a new life that produces good fruit and shows witness to…

Staying Fresh In Old Age

" The righteous will flourish like a palm tree., they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; planted in the house of the Lord, they will flourish in the courts of our God. They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green proclaiming, 'The Lord is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him' " (Psalm 92:12-15).

As people grow old, they cannot…

little bits of wisdom

“We would never learn to be brave and patient if there were only joy in the world,” wrote Helen Keller. How I wish she were wrong. Disappointments leave us with the unpleasant task of squashing, crushing, and pinching life’s lemons to extract anything to transform into lemonade

Newspaper columnist Ann Landers once wrote, “Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life, and when it comes, hold your head high. Look it squarely in the eye, and say, "I…

Would you know it was Jesus?

Would you know it was Jesus?

Who else saw Jesus see after he had shed his burial clothes?

Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaeus, about seven miles from Jerusalem. (Luke 24) They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them, but they were kept from recognizing him. This I do not understand--somehow, his…

Critical Summary of “What is Reformed Faith?” by John R. de Witt

The question of identity of Reformed community is not an easy task both historically and in the context of current society. This is difficult from a historical point of view due to numerous personalities whom we ascribe our origin. Within the Reformed persuasion, none claimed to rise above all others affirming that his voice is the most authoritative one. However having said this, if we want to understand the Reformed tradition from a confessional perspective, it is best to examine the… Continue

A Brief History of Reformed Theology

The material of this article is taken from Herman Bavinck’s Reformed Dogmatics: Prolegomena Volume 1 pages 175 – 204. My goal is just to provide a brief overview of the history of Reformed theology. The first that comes to mind is the connection of Reformed theology with the Lutherans. Bavinck identifies that the major difference between Lutherans and Calvinists is one of principle. Calvinists think theologically whereas the Lutherans think anthropologically. This difference in principle is… Continue

The Epicenter of Christianity.

The Epicenter of Christianity. Today's Scripture from Luke 24 and John 20

So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. He bent over and looked in at the strips of linen lying there but did not go in. Then Simon Peter, who was behind him, arrived and went into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, as well as the burial cloth that had been around Jesus' head. The cloth was…

A Most Blessed Easter.

Christ is risen . . . He has risen indeed! Did you say that at church yesterday? This year, my Easter celebration was uniquely punctuated by sunset at the beach. I’ll get back to that, but for now, how blessed are we to go to church two thousand years after the resurrection and celebrate what took place on that Sunday so long ago?!

Remember? “On the first day of the week, at early dawn, they [the women] went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared. And they found the…

REMINDER

They stumbled in the early morning darkness as they made their way to the tomb where Jesus was buried. Both women were determined to complete the burial preparations of their friend, they weren't sure how they were going to move the stone covering the entrance but they were determined to proceed with their plans one way or another. As they approached the tomb they stared with astonishment and disbelief. The stone covering the entrance had been moved. They… Continue
