Marriage – Physical and Spiritual

Norbert Link | June 28, 2008

How does a temporary physical marriage between a converted couple symbolize the eternal spiritual marriage between Christ and his Church? Why does Paul say that this is a mystery–which is only understood today by very few  people? Why is Christ called our bridegroom? Why and how are we betrothed to Him today? Why are we called virgins and the bride? What are the grounds for physical and spiritual divorce? How will Christ marry us upon His return? What about the marriage supper? And what does the Heavenly Jerusalem have to do with all of this?

Giving

Kalon Mitchell | June 28, 2008

Giving is an essential part to who we are Christians. If we do not ever give, then we are not developing the character of God. And if we are not developing the character of God, we will not be called “blessed”.

Self-Control

Eric Rank | June 8, 2008

Self control is a virtue that is critical in our goal of overcoming this world. Without it, many of the more weighty attributes of our character simply cannot be mastered. In order to achieve self-control, the best method is to analyze the stumbling blocks we may have, and work to remove them. By doing so, we judge ourselves first, so that we may not be judged when the time of the end comes, and inherit the promise of eternal life.

Don't Take God For Granted

Michael Link | June 8, 2008

Things that we have been taking for granted in this life have been depleting and soaring in price, whether it’s food prices, gasoline, and cost of living.   During these difficult times, we need to stay strong and look to God for intervention, thank Him for what we do have and the blessings He does give us.  We should never take Him for granted on what He promises us when we do these things.

Samuel and the Witch of Endor

Brian Gale (United Kingdom) | May 24, 2008

When Saul was in desperate trouble he sought a medium – the witch at En Dor – to raise Samuel from the dead (1 Samuel 28).   So desperate did he see his own situation that he wanted to consult a medium – those who practiced this art he had banished from the land.   Was this Samuel or a demon, an evil spirit, impersonating Samuel?   The answer is clear when the Scriptures are put together.

According To Your Work

Dave Harris | May 10, 2008

Christianity is a job for you and me! We have been given work to accomplish, and we are promised payment. God clearly and emphatically demands that we produce. Understanding our job and the kind of work we need to complete is a vital part of our calling and of our future reward.

Let There Be Light

Norbert Link | April 26, 2008

Throughout the Bible, we find a clear separation between light and darkness. As children of light, we must not have any fellowship or communion with the works of darkness. But many today do not know the difference between right and wrong, good and evil, light and darkness. The world rejected the true Light, Jesus Christ, at the time of His first Coming. Not much has changed. Very few today are willing to come to the God of Light, Life and Truth–while most continue to follow Satan, the prince of darkness, who transforms himself into an “angel of light.” And so do his ministers. But God pronounces a curse on those who put darkness for light. He wants His people to be lights to the world. Are you such a light? Are you letting your light shine brightly in the midst of a perverse and crooked generation?

The Goal

Dave Harris | April 26, 2008

In the events we have been portraying in symbolic ways during the Feast of Unleavened Bread, we have pictured putting sin out of our lives completely. In this seventh day observance we are picturing reaching the goal to which God has called us. We must understand why we are here and continue to focus on the goal of eternal life in the Kingdom of God.

Anger and Wrath

Norbert Link | April 20, 2008

We are living today in an incredibly angry society. Although there is righteous indignation, our anger is caused most of the times by Satan, the destroyer. And still, we are told that God Himself will pour out His wrath over disobedient and rebellious mankind in the future. How can we reconcile these seeming contradictions? WHY does God tell us that we must overcome anger and wrath? And HOW can we do it?

A New Song

Eric Rank | April 19, 2008

In Revelation 14, we find 144,000 saints singing a new song. Why are they singing, what is the significance of the song being new, and why are there only 144,000 who can learn to sing this song? Examining the context of this event and analyzing it in relationship to other events of rejoicing, judgment and learning shed light on these questions.
