Show Compassion To Suffering Saints




Key Verse: "Can that which is unsavory be eaten without salt? or is there any taste in the white of an egg?" (Job 6:6).

Quite often in life, we find people who are going through difficult and harsh experiences. Such people always plead for help. And because it is impossible for a third party to fully appreciate what they are really going through, they tend to jump too quickly to usually wrong conclusions. Job's friends had gathered apparently to commiserate with him for the bad fortune that had befallen him. They didn't understand what he was going through.

The Last Human Sacrifice

       

We are told in Scripture, in numerous places, that the death of Jesus was a death for sin. It is therefore not possible to meditate responsibly on the crucifixion of Jesus without reckoning with the fact and reality of sin. If Jesus was a dragon-slayer in His passion, and He was, then we must understand that sin was the dragon.

7 Reasons Young Men Should Marry Before Their 23rd Birthday

                         
                      
I want to argue that the war on marriage has many fronts. And while evangelical Christians have done a decent job in resisting some of the more outlandish attacks (e.g. Obergefell), in other areas we have tended to go along with the secular flow completely. One area where acquiescence is evident is when it comes to the age when young people marry.

Recently I found myself in the emergency room with stomach pains.
They had been gradually getting worse through the week so I decided to head in, just in case it was something serious. After five hours of an IV, blood work, x-ray, ct scan, EKG, pokes and prodding, the Dr. came back in and said:
“We can’t tell you what it is, but we can tell you what it’s not.”

WELL SEASONED IN THE WORD

              
"You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house.” (Matthew 5:14-15, NLT)
As the world grows darker in sin, we must find time to trim our wicks and fill our lamps with oil. We are to be light to the world and salt to the earth. But have we lost our flavor? If we are well seasoned in the Word and we maintain our prayer life, we will be making an obvious difference.

HIS INEXHAUSTIBLE GRACE

                               
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, (Tit 2:11)
Dear friends, there’s no lion, tiger or leopard inside you that the grace of God cannot tame, allow him.
