The Call of the Lord (Song 2:8-13)

The Call of the Lord The maiden has only known the sweetness of communion with the Lord, but very little of the power for service or the fierce struggle of spiritual warfare. “It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect . . . He enables me to stand on the [...]

How to prove we love Jesus

God the Father demonstrated His love to us in that He gave His only begotten Son so that every one who believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

WE ARE NOT WITHOUT HOPE

We who know Christ’s righteousness are not to live as those who are without hope. We have been blessed with both the love and the fear of God. And his will for us in the darkest, most terrible times is to obtain his joy and gladness. Even as we see judgment falling around us, we’re [...]

Charlotte Church with Josh Groban – The Prayer

Few Are Ready (by Jan Boshoff)

I say this kindly, but the Bible says that the wicked are like poisonous serpents, and we must be snake handlers. I think it is significant that the Bible calls Satan “that [...]

THE CALL OF THE RISEN CHRIST (Song 2:8-13)

He Chose the Shame of Weakness, So I Can Know the Hope of Glory

Who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame. Hebrews 12:2 “Keep an eye on the one in the middle,” some onlooker might have said that day. “He’s the one to watch. You never know what might happen.” Words like these might have come from a boy with nothing better to [...]
