The apostle John gave us this story about Jesus. John 8:3-11 “Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. And when they had set her in the midst, they said to Him, ‘Teacher, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses, in the law, commanded us […]

People are prone to forget what has happened in the past.  They may know something but without being reminded, they may forget what they know. The chief butler and the chief baker of the king of Egypt were confined in the prison with Joseph (Genesis 40).  In one night they each had a troubling dream; […]

God through Moses brought the children of Israel out of Egypt and gave them the law.  The law taught them right from wrong, taught them how to worship God, and taught them how to deal with many situations in life.  Then Moses died and Joshua became the leader.  Joshua warned the people in Joshua 1:7-8 […]

Fathers are given the responsible for the proper training of their children. Ephesians 6:4 “And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.” This literally means “nourish them in the discipline and the instruction of the Lord.” In other words, Christian Fathers […]

Do you honor your parents?  We are commanded to do so.  Ephesians 6:1-3 “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.  ‘Honor your father and mother,’ which is the first commandment with promise: ‘that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.’”  To understand that it […]

God sent His son into the world to redeem mankind.  Jesus was born to His mother Mary and grew up as a child in a Jewish household.  He was both human and divine, both man and God. He had the power of God as demonstrated by His ability to heal the sick, raise the dead, […]

Faith is central to the life of a Christian.  We must believe that God is the creator of the world and the King over all creation. But we must also believe that Jesus is Lord, and that God has raised Him from the dead. Romans 10:9 “That if you confess with your mouth the Lord […]

I had an uncle who told everyone he met “I love you”.  He was sincere and felt that we often don’t tell those close to us that we love them.  In reality, we should love everyone we meet.  God loves everyone in the world so much that He sent Jesus to the earth.  John 3:16 […]

As we travel through life, we can be proud or we can be humble.  We are taught to be clothed with humility.  1 Peter 5:5-7 “Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for ‘God resists the proud, but gives […]

We have a wonderful, marvelous God.  He loves us.  1 John 3:1 “Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!” He is for us.  Romans 8:31-32 “What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? […]
