The church needs workers. Jesus once said, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few” (Luke 10:2). He was talking specifically about soul winning in this statement, but the same thing might be said about the collective work that God has given the church to do. When it comes to the work of the […]
How we live every day is important. Why? Because we all have to give an account of ourselves to God. This is a truth that everyone should take seriously. Paul put it like this. Romans 14:10-12 (ESV) 10 Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For […]
While we know that death is inevitable, through Christ we have victory over it. We can look be-yond the misery and darkness that surrounds death, and even the uncertainly of what shall come beyond it, for we are more than conquerors in Christ, even over death. I know that death is one of those things […]
Should we be concerned about our souls? Yes, but in Christ we do not have to live in constant fear of condemnation. Paul said, “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1). Just like God is with us in our struggles against man, He is with us in […]
The world around us is harsh and overtaken by sin. As a result, we face being ridiculed and rude-ly treated. We face being cursed, questioned, abused, and misused by the people of this world. Still, we must continue to strive for the faith and refuse to be frightened by our opponents. If we are to […]
Over the years, the question has often been asked, “Do you think that only members of the church of Christ are saved?” Sometimes this question is asked sincerely, but most of the time it is asked out of derision. No matter what the motive, it is a question that always demonstrates a misunderstanding of scripture […]
When we obeyed the gospel of Christ, we became children of God. Membership in God’s family is a wonderful blessing that demonstrates how much God loves us. John wrote, “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God…” (1 John 3:1). Now that we are […]
One of the great privileges of being a child of God is the ability to talk with Him. It is unbelievable to think that we have access to such an incredible and powerful Being like God; yet, the Bible repeatedly tells us that we do. Romans 5:2 (ESV) 2 Through him we have also obtained […]
How committed are you to Word of God? The immediate response of some would be, “I am very committed to the Word of God,” but the question is, how do we know? What is involved in being committed to the Word of God. Well, allow me to suggest three things that we must be committed […]
Do you believe you are committed to God? We all should examine ourselves once in a while to make sure that we are. One question that we can ask ourselves is, “Am I committed to the Lord’s church?” If you are not committed to the church, you are not committed to God. In some ways […]
