By Grant Phillips One of the most frightening thoughts that comes to mind, is the thought of God turning us over to our own devices. You might say, He washes His hands of us and walks away. I’ll never forget what one of our coaches said to us in high school. It went something like (leaving out the expletives), “When I’m on your case, I see potential in you. When I’m not on your case, I’ve washed my hands of you.” That has always stayed with me, and I found it to be true later in life when I did …

Our service today discussed the return of the nation Israel to their land. The focus is on how God declares that this will all be done to cause people to acknowledge Him as the Creator and sustainer. https://youtu.be/4lHiqQEyN9w  

  Proverbs 2 2 My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you, 2 making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; 3 yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, 4 if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, 5 then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God. 6 For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding; 7 he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is …

Reflections For whom the Lord loves he chastens, and scourges every son whom he receives. (Heb 12:6) The Father in heaven NEVER punishes his children. But the Lord does chastise us. There is an immense difference. Punishment – under the normal use of the word – tends to be vindictive in nature. Punishment is not merely the satisfying of justice, and it is not necessarily redemptive. It is really the exacting of suffering as a payment. But such motives are not the Truth pertaining to God. God never punishes because these definitions are not the Truth about the character of …

We know we love God when we consistently—though imperfectly—make His desires our own. Acts 13:16 – 13:22 16 Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with [his] hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience. 17 The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it. 18 And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness. 19 And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land …

Whatever the cause of grief may be, there is rich comfort in the remembrance of the sorrows of Christ. It assures us that Christ understands our pain. In the garden he went a stone’s cast farther than any of his disciples went. The picture is a parable to us. It is always so. Wherever you bow in the deep shadows of grief, you have but to lift up your eyes, and you will see Jesus in still deeper shadows—a stone’s cast beyond you. His sorrow was sorer than yours. There is comfort also in the remembrance that blessing comes out …

Gracethrufaith Question of the Day: Q. How come I can hear what God is saying to me and know when I need to do something, but often I cannot act on it. I can’t seem to get my body under control. I understand that its not my works but my belief, which is that I’m redeemed by Jesus and what he did, it just really frustrates me. A. First, let me commend you for your honesty. Many Christians fool themselves into thinking they’re doing just fine in the sin department and a few actually claim to have stopped sinning altogether. …

What will we be doing in the Millennium? By Jim Allen Do you ever wonder about the Millennium and what you will be doing during the 1,000-year reign of Christ? I do. In fact, most do from time-to-time. But, along with wondering come the questions: What will we look like? What will we think? What power will we be given to serve the King of Kings? Even though the Apostle Paul wrote we are new creations in Christ, we struggle to know what that means (2 Corinthians 5:17). We are yet unglorified, undone, imperfect, and hidden away in Christ until …

JESUS CHRIST is God Almighty!! Hebrews 1:8,9 But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hatred lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You with the Oil of gladness more than Your companions” Hebrews 1: 10-12 And: “You YAHWEH, in the begining laid the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands. They will perish, but You remain; And they will all grow old like a garment; Like a cloak You will fold them …
