The Great Commission Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted.

Difficult Times
I used to think that I was exempt from difficult times in my new life in Christ as long as lived a righteous life. Boy, was I wrong... The Bible states in 2 Timothy 3:12 (NIV), "In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted." You see, we …

Jesus is Lord
The Bible states in 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (New Living Translation), “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to …
Why do we blame God for evil?
The present evil in our world is not God’s fault. Evil is a result of sin and Satan’s work in the earth. God has indeed did something about sin through the death of His Son; the end just hasn’t come yet because God wants the world to turn to him to be saved. “For God …
The Good Samaritan
The Parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:25-37, is God’s way of illustrating to man the definition of true love. “The Parable teaches that authentic spiritual life is defined not by ethnic heritage but by love for God and others” (Strauss, 2007, p. 274).
