Hi Dear Readers, I hope you enjoyed the three posts I shared with you last week! If you missed them, you can click on the category The Spotlight, to read them all. I really try not to repeat authours, so that I can share more from a vast […]
The mind is as to the heart as reason is as to passion. They war continually and rarely agree. The mind believes it is superior, and seeks always to lead the heart. The heart however longs for independence…to do as it pleases, damning the consequences. I see parallels […]
“Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee” (1 Tim 4:16). How important is doctrine in the life of a Christian? What is doctrine, really? Google defines doctrine as a “belief […]
“For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if though be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision” (Romans 2:25). I’ve moved on to reading the Book of Romans, and this verse really stuck out to me. Here, Paul is speaking to the […]
I offer no translations, no concessions and no explanations. Read these words from Paul, just as they are. Take them as his understanding if you like, but know that he was appointed by Jesus to teach the Gospel…and his ministry was particularly for the Gentiles. If sexual morality […]
I just concluded another reading of the book of Acts, and I got quite a few lessons from it. There was something that really got me this time. A communication between Jesus and Paul. In the 23rd Chapter, there is an account of Paul being held in the […]
Can we agree on this? Please? Like, this has to be the most basic level of common sense…but like all common sense, it is quite uncommon to find someone who truly understands and appreciates this truth. In case you are struggling to understand how the existence of faith […]
Christian evangelism has entered new waters in this our modern world. In some ways, it is easier to share your beliefs…with the advancement of technology, particularly the Internet and social media. And in many ways, it is harder to be received, not least because those who do not […]
The Law of the Lord is flawless; The Sabbath shall be hallowed as holy. The marriage bed is sacred and covenant inviolable; But Wisdom is the principle thing. In all things, may God be glorified… Grace and Truth has revealed to us That the Sabbath was made for […]
As early as you can, it is good to know yourself and to know the grace of God. I can describe my childhood and youthful years as zealous. I had zeal for a lot of things, but I lacked knowledge of myself or of the grace of God. […]
“Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that […]
Christians are often regarded as “Know-It-All”s by the faithless, because of the confidence we place in the knowledge of God and all things spiritual. Maybe it could also have something to do with how we seem to have an answer for everything…or how hard it is to get […]
The first people to be called Christians were first called “disciples” of Jesus Christ (Acts 11:26). A disciple can be best defined as a student/follower of a Teacher/Leader, who studies a discipline (profession) to gain mastery over it and become equipped to pass on the training to others. […]
Do you go to Church? Do you know why you go to Church? Hopefully, if you go to Church, you go because it is a place of spiritual healing, restoration and nourishment, where you do not only seek to receive but to give to others too. There are […]
“God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” (John 4:24). Jesus tells us the very nature of God, and the nature of the worship true believers are to give to Him. God is a Spirit. What that tells me […]
