    Asleep

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Nov 11, 2023
     | 647 views

    As humans we grow tired and require a nap; at least I do in the afternoon. Does God grow sleepy and require a daily nap in the afternoon? If we take the days of the week literally as with the creation, does God sleep every seventh day?

    In the beginning God made the heavens and the earth. After creating everything, God rested. Does that mean God went to sleep? As humans we grow tired and require a nap; at least I do in the afternoon. Does God grow sleepy and require a daily nap in the afternoon? If we take the days of the week ...read more

    Identity Theft

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Nov 11, 2023
     | 723 views

    An unstable person who feels inadequate in their identity might steal another’s because it might bring them personal gain. Others who have turned to evil find pleasure in stealing from a person more wealthy than they.

    Knowing mankind has to have individual identifiers for every person, place and thing, he has instinctively created an almost impossibility to recognize things of a spiritual nature. Man cannot readily recognize things of a spiritual nature because he does not see, hear, touch, nor smell or taste a ...read more

    Mistaken Identity

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Nov 11, 2023
     | 866 views

    Mistaken identity is a fact of physical life here on earth. Humans have to have identities for everything. Humans have to have an identifying aspect of every object, place and person to distinguish one from another.

    A young couple found they were expecting a child. As the pregnancy progressed, they found out they were going to have twins. What an excitement. Yet, what a problem. What if they were identical twins! How would they tell them apart long enough to teach them their respective names? The idea of ...read more

    Climate Change

    As a child, our parents disciplined us from time to time as we needed correction. It often was not well taken by us, but over time we began to understand why we. Sometimes the discipline was more severe than before. God has disciplined mankind likewise. And, He still does.

    As a child, our parents disciplined us from time to time as we needed correction. It often was not well taken by us, but over time we began to understand why we were. Sometimes the discipline was more severe than before. If we did not learn our lesson, it got more and more harsh. Soon we learned to ...read more

    Baptism

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Aug 16, 2023
     | 760 views

    At the end of the time Jesus was upon the earth, he showed himself to his disciples and told them certain things they were to do after he returned to Heaven. Luke records some of the things commanded. Matthew gives a clear command, "Baptizing them". Let us find out about this baptism.

    At the end of the time Jesus was upon the earth, he showed himself to his disciples and told them certain things they were to do after he returned to Heaven. Let us read Luke’s account; Luke 24:44-53. 44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, ...read more

    Hearing God

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jul 29, 2023
     | 1,322 views

    In your life and studies of the scriptures, do you hear God? I mean, do you really hear God speaking to you or is the idea of hearing God an illusion?

    In your life and studies of the scriptures, do you hear God? I mean, do you really hear God speaking to you or is the idea of hearing God an illusion? Often we forget, God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. John 4:24. Therefore, to hear God, which Jesus ...read more

     | 598 views

    Ladies, do you remember when your husband asked for your hand in marriage; the day you became engaged? You either were scared or excited; most likely filled with joy and gladness.

    Ladies, do you remember when your husband asked for your hand in marriage; the day you became engaged? You either were scared or excited; filled with joy and gladness. Did you feel no one would ask for you to marry them? Did you feel as an outcast by so many in this world? Did you begin to wonder ...read more

    Amazing Grace

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Apr 22, 2023
     | 847 views

    Are you flawless, without blemish, perfect in every way? If we will admit it, none of us are. God wants those without blemish. If we are not, how does God accept us who are flawed? It is by His plan through His only son, Jesus Christ, by whom we can obtain Amazing Grace and be seen without blemish.

    When I was dating, and I'm sure for you as with me, my significant other thought I was perfect. Is that the way it was for you? Notice my wife shaking her head. The truth, she did; but she will no longer admit it. I knew she was not perfect. I told her so on many occasions. It was something ...read more

    Because He Loved Me So

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Apr 7, 2023
     | 1,397 views

    Jesus, because he loved me, you, and our neighbors, offered his life, shed his innocent blood, that we might have life and have it more abundantly. Then He was raised to life and reigns for us in Heaven.

    Why did the Saviour Heaven leave, and come to earth below? Why did he choose a lowly birth? Why did he suffer on the cross? Because, He loved me so! Jesus, obedient to the Father, Jehovah, holds as much love for you and me as does the Father. God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten ...read more

    God's Comfort Through Knowledge Series

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Feb 4, 2023
     | 618 views

    Knowledge of God and his kingdom offers comfort to the righteous in all times of pain, sorrow, and suppression by evil beings. Daniel, in captivity, was comforted regularly by knowledge given to 'a man highly esteemed'; Daniel 9:23. Through knowledge, the righteous are comforted today.

    In our study of punishment, captivity, protection of saints, and comfort of the righteous in times of captivity, we will see God’s continued comfort in knowledge of His divine plan for mankind unto Daniel. It is safe to assume Daniel shared these bits of knowledge and wisdom with the righteous ...read more

    God’s Comfort In Captivity Series

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jan 30, 2023
     | 714 views

    In faith and trust of God, the righteous will find comfort in captivity. Wisdom will be given for those who seek to find it.

    God never forsakes his own. Today we will begin to see comfort given to His righteous captives by some prophecies foretold of a physical literal nature of their future; perhaps way into the future until the dispersing of Christians in AD 70, or beyond. Daniel’s comfort lieth in understanding God’s ...read more

    God's Protection In Captivity Series

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jan 30, 2023
     | 1,157 views

    God will never forsake His own. In captivity, God will protect the righteous from evil rulers so their captivity will be no more than they can stand. Look at the life of Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.

    Let us begin a study of the book of Daniel to understand the protection of righteous Hebrew children during the captivity. God has always promised to his righteous he would always be with them in time of peril. The very nature of man is to wonder or worry about their future. When under stress, the ...read more

    Captivity Of A Nation Series

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jan 30, 2023
     | 1,018 views

    If punishment and discipline of a nation is ineffective, God will cause a nation to enter into captivity. Look at the nation of Judah and their captivity.

    In our previous study, we ended with Jehoiakim being King of Judah and Nebuchadnezzar besieged Jerusalem. 2 Kings 24:1. 24 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him. Secular history calls this king ...read more

    Punishment Of A Nation Series

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jan 30, 2023
     | 1,036 views

    Every nation has need of discipline. God will punish an evil nation for disobedience by unrighteous leadership. Look at the nation of Judah and God's punishment of them. Yet, God will protect and comfort the righteous in captivity.

    As Americans, we have not seen a complete overthrow of our nation’s leadership. We have witnessed many attempts to assassinate our presidents, with a few successes. Our form of government seems to be stable. The democracy in which we live has been built upon Godly principles and appears to be a ...read more

    Disgrace Of A Hanging

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Aug 13, 2022
     | 1,133 views

    There is no other disgraceful form of death than to be sentenced to death by hanging on a pole, by a tree or any other device to suspend a person between heaven and earth. Our Lord died in that manner. Jesus knew the type of shameful form of death he must endure; yet he went to the hanging anyway.

    On March 18, 1875, President Ulysses S. Grant nominated Judge Isaac C. Parker to hold the bench of the U.S. Court for the Western District of Arkansas. On May 4th, at the age of 36, Isaac arrived in Fort Smith, AR and held his first court on the 10th. He held that position for 21 years. He soon was ...read more
