In the Parables Jesus describes what the kingdom is like. In Romans 14 Paul describes what the kingdom IS. How do we identify what is the kingdom of heaven today?
Our hope in the great and precious promises of God help to anchor our souls through the storms of life. What are those promises? What is our inheritance in Christ?
Is confessing our sins something Christians should be doing? The Bible pattern teaches us, yes. And the apostle John also instructs us to in Christ in 1 John 1:9.
Continuing our discussion of the importance of contemplation in prayer, we elaborate on the need to contemplate how God is working in our lives and draw near to Him.
Jesus teaches, according to true righteousness, to address sin from the heart. In Matthew 5:21-37, He illustrates with three scenarios: anger , lust, and dishonesty.
In Psalm 19:14, the words of the mouth and the meditation of the heart are worship. Can contemplation with prayer to help us draw our hearts closer to God?
Jesus speaks of the kingdom coming in three different contexts and instructs His disciples to pray, "Your kingdom come." Should we still be praying this today?
Life is filled with trials. By God's grace, we don't just survive, we are given victory in Jesus. As we introduce this series, we focus on hope and promises.
We continue our study on the salt of the earth and light of the world. From these analogies, Jesus goes on to say that He came to fulfill the law. What does it mean?
The parables of Jesus have overlapping themes concerning our relationship to the kingdom, the Parables of the Tares in the Field, the Mustard Seed, and the Leaven.
In our final lesson on Grace For Sound Speech, we discuss Paul’s admonition in Colossians 4:6, “Let your speech be with Grace seasoned with salt.”
Jesus describes the effect those who strive for the qualities in the beatitudes will have on the world. They are the salt of the earth and the light of the world.
The church is the body of Christ and we are individually members of one another. How should our personal devotion to Christ affect our work in the local church?
In Christ we draw near to God through Jesus’ sacrifice. By Him we offer our sacrifices- the fruit of our lips—praising and giving thanks. Sacrifices God desires.
Where does prayer belong in the life of a believer in God? How do we begin pursuing a life of prayer? What first steps can we take to pursue prayer in our lives?
