Biblical Teachings

The most important question that you ever need to answer is, “Do I belong to Christ?” If you belong to Christ, all of God’s promises are “yes” for you in Him (2 Cor. 1:20). If you belong to Christ, you are reconciled to God, your sins are all forgiven, you can enjoy fellowship with Him every day, and you know that if you were to die today, you would be with the Lord in the glory of heaven forever. So, do you belong to Christ? You may say, “Yes, I invited Jesus into my heart at Vacation Bible School when …

Alone, we are limited in what we can do. With the Holy Spirit, we have the power to fulfill God’s purposes. EPHESIANS 3:14-21 14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all …

Reflections Wherefore let him that thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. (1 Cor 10:12) Paul is not exhorting us to make sure we are strong enough to stand by faith. He is telling us to make sure that our faith is in Jesus Christ — rather than in ourselves, or in something else. This means that real faith, rather than be born out of our strength, is born out of our weakness. We have come to the place where we see that only in Christ is there any hope — and we are rejoicing in this Truth. If …

If we could hear God Himself speaking to us from the book of James the conversation might go like this: I know the beginning from the end and all that is in between. I want you to model Me before the world. Therefore, be swift to hear, slow to speak and slow to become angry. If you don’t bridle your tongue, what you say about me is worthless because I hear and see you as you speak to visitors and regulars at church. Your words and actions reveal your heart, so speak and act as if I were standing with …

This Life is a very vast Life. It reaches into God’s great purpose, and we are a part of it; we are “the called according to His purpose.” We want to know the purpose; we want to know our place in the purpose; we want to know our faculties, our functions. How shall this be? Not by studying up what they are, but by being in Life. It may be very interesting to have a scientific knowledge of the workings of our human bodies, but it is not necessary in order to live. Live, and the thing happens. You never have …

Dr. Mike Murphy I grabbed my keyboard, ready to jump in and help.  We have all been there, seen someone on social media who placed themselves in the eye of the storm.  Knowing that the attacks were getting ready to come at them from all sides, because of a comment or reply they have made.  As I watched that day, I saw an older woman I knew speaking up to defend Christ.  Speaking up in the middle of a discussion where many were looking to do nothing but attack Christ, and the faith she held dear.  Before her reply, a …

Reflections How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? Forever? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me? How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? (Ps. 13:1-2) This Psalm is the cry of a person who, in the midst of a trial of their faith, is operating out of the natural man. God never forgets us, or hides His face from us. But to natural man, it will sometimes SEEM like it. If I am in Christ, my spiritual union with Him does not eliminate the possibilities of the flesh or …

If it is true that you and I have been anointed of the Holy Spirit, as we ought to be, our presence in this world ought to register something positive for God. It ought to be impossible for us to come into this world, and go out of it, without having registered something upon it. People in this world ought to feel something when we are near them. The devil himself ought to take notice that, because we are here under the Holy Spirit, Jesus is here. It is impossible for Jesus to be anywhere without something happening, and now Jesus …

It is ever the Holy Spirit’s work to turn our eyes away from self to Jesus; but Satan’s work is just the opposite of this, for he is constantly trying to make us regard ourselves instead of Christ. He insinuates, “Your sins are too great for pardon; you have no faith; you do not repent enough; you will never be able to continue to the end; you have not the joy of his children; you have such a wavering hold of Jesus.” All these are thoughts about self, and we shall never find comfort or assurance by looking within. But …

In this video Dr Woodhead discusses the various people groups in the Messianic Kingdom. During the Millennium there will be two people groups on earth: the Jewish people, and the Gentiles. Additionally, there will be two different types of bodies for the Millennial population, resurrected bodies and natural bodies. Those going into the Messianic Kingdom in resurrected bodies will be: • The people who are in the Church from the first Pentecost until the Rapture (I Thessalonians 4:14-17; I Corinthians 15:54; Jude 1:14; Revelation 19:14). • Old Testament Saints (Isaiah 26:19). • Great Tribulation Saints (Revelation 20:4). • Possibly the …

The Old Testament Priests could never sit down because their work was never finished…..Not so with our High Priest, Jesus, Who finished the work that God sent Him to do and after sacrificing Himself for our sins, He sat down at the Father’s right hand! Hebrews 10:11-22 KJV [11] And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: [12] But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; [13] From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. …
