This message by Paul brings me much comfort, for it shows that he also dealt with the strong opposition of his faith in the Risen Christ, and that he had to consider the possibility that he was wrong. Even though he had personally seen Jesus after His resurrection. […]
It is a popular and true saying that “you cannot give what you do not have”. This has led many people to seek first to acquire, so that they will be best placed to give…if they feel so inclined. The temptation though is to believe that there is a […]
The greatest and most effective lie of the Devil is the lie that he doesn’t exist!!! So many people are comfortable believing this lie, while he continues his ministry in their lives…leading them farther and farther away from the truth. If you don’t believe he exists, you won’t […]
“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 […]
“When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He saith […]
“Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?” (Matthew 11:3) John the Baptist might have been the first to ask this of Jesus, but he certainly wasn’t to be the last!!! After coming to a personal revelation of Jesus Christ, hearing the very words of […]
Today in Church, I looked upon the Cross and pondered on it. As a symbol of our faith, it stands as a reminder of many fundamental messages from our Lord. In no particular order, let us meditate on the messages of the Cross. Feel free to add more […]
Jesus Christ (or Yeshua) of Nazareth is the most popular, famous, impactful, remarkable Man that ever lived. The fact that He was born at all is still the most significant event in this world’s history, more than 2000 years later! We even set our dates by His birth. […]
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Rom 3:23). So, I was having a conversation with an old friend the other day, and this issue about the fact that we are all awful sinners, and none of us is good, came up. It […]
Sin. Who has never fallen into it? Who has never relished it? Every single one of us has loved sin. Many still maintain a love-hate relationship with sin. When we came to Christ, there were some sins that were just so hard to forsake. Some that we had to […]
“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 […]
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. […]
Are you my brother or my enemy? These days it is hard to tell! So many profess the same faith, but their actions are as diverse from yours as the many colours of the rainbow. It is hard to know who is really sincere, who’s right and who’s […]
The gospel of Christ is such a mystery to onlookers. They can hardly understand why an all-powerful being, such as God, would subject Himself to such an humiliation as to be killed on a Cross. How He could say that He came to save the world, but wasn’t […]
“Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am” (John 8:58). The other day, I started musing on immortality, original sin and suffering, after reading a post by an Atheist who said that the thought of living forever freaked him out. Maybe you […]
