We can more easily receive God’s love when we remember that it’s based on His grace, not our behavior.   1 JOHN 3:1 1 See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. One of the most devastating failures a Christian can experience is the inability to embrace the pure love of God. What prevents a believer from accepting such a wonderful blessing? Our own relationships. Ironically, the way we love …

1 Samuel 25:20 – 25:28 20 And it was [so, as] she rode on the ass, that she came down by the covert of the hill, and, behold, David and his men came down against her; and she met them. 21 Now David had said, Surely in vain have I kept all that this [fellow] hath in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that [pertained] unto him: and he hath requited me evil for good. 22 So and more also do God unto the enemies of David, if I leave of all that [pertain] to him by …

Finally the Lord issues His command to Noah to COME into his house, the ark, due to his righteousness. This does not mean that Noah was sinless. It means that he trusted God for his circumstances. He relied on God. (Proverbs 3: 5). Noah was righteous before God. We have the righteousness of God imparted to us at the point of belief (Romans 3: 22, 5: 17, 21, 8:10 etc.). We have come into the house of the Lord and are His when we believe. God does not push us into a relationship with Him. Just as we come to …

We shall never see Divine things by the aid of our reason. We shall never see things because they are put plainly to us by the one who ministers. No, it will only be as Jesus of Nazareth comes into touch with us and we with Him. And that applies to every stage of the Christian life. If there are any reading these lines, who have never in the first place had their eyes opened to see, so that the result is Life eternal – for knowing is only another word for seeing, and Jesus said, “This is life eternal, …

Amir’s teaching “Are You Ready?” from Calvary Chapel Cancun, Mexico. Are you ready? Do you understand the times and the seasons? The words of Jesus concerning the end times together with the perfect alignment of current events with Bible prophecy are all pointing at the fact that we are indeed living in the end times! This teaching is in Spanish and English. “Conferencia Maranatha 2017”.  

Reflections “The fear of the Lord,” as stated in the Bible, is never, “being afraid of the Lord.” Being afraid of God is the wrong kind of fear of God. The true, “fear of the Lord,” is a REVERENCE of God. All of the wrong kind of fear of God goes back to somewhere that I have embraced a lie about Him. The Truth about God is, “God is love.” Furthermore, “there is no fear in love.” (I Jn. 4:18) So there can be nothing about God that could make us afraid. Indeed, perfect love casts OUT fear – and …

John 1:12-13 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. Yesterday we saw that belief in Jesus is the core of Christianity. Now let’s look at some implications of that saving faith. Knowledge of who Jesus is and what He did must be accompanied by confidence that the facts are true and apply to us. First, it’s important to …

“And I give unto them eternal life, and they shall never perish.”—John 10:28. HE Christian should never think or speak lightly of unbelief. For a child of God to mistrust His love, His truth, His faithfulness, must be greatly displeasing to Him. How can we ever grieve Him by doubting His upholding grace? Christian! it is contrary to every promise of God’s precious Word that thou shouldst ever be forgotten or left to perish. If it could be so, how could He be true who has said, “Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion …

Ephesians 6:10-18 (KJV) 10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having …

IT was far above the power of nature, and even contrary to its laws, that the aged Sarah should be honoured with a son; and even so it is beyond all ordinary rules that I, a poor, helpless, undone sinner, should find grace to bear about in my soul the indwelling Spirit of the Lord Jesus. I, who once despaired, as well I might, for my nature was as dry, and withered, and barren, and accursed as a howling wilderness, even I have been made to bring forth fruit unto holiness. Well may my mouth be filled with joyous laughter, …

It’s easier for new believers to start off well on the Christian journey when they grasp the true meaning of salvation GALATIANS 1:11-17 11 For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man. 12 For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ. 13 For you have heard of my former manner of life in Judaism, how I used to persecute the church of God beyond measure and tried to destroy it; 14 and I was …

from Care for God’s Fruit-trees and other Messages by H. A. Ironside The story of Joseph as given in Genesis (chapters 37 to 50) is perennially fresh and delightful. Young and old alike revel in it. Looked at as an old-world picture of customs and people long-since vanished, there is a freshness and charm about it that stirs the heart and holds our attention in a remarkable way. But in studying Scripture there is not only the literal application, which is always important, but every part of the Word of God has a spiritual, typical, and dispensational application as well, …
