Unfit For The Battle

Contributed by Grant Adams on Mar 6, 2020

The Christian life is a spiritual warfare. The success of any warfare depends on the soldiers as well as their Captain. Many soldiers in God's army are unfit for the battle.

Those Whose Dedication is Incomplete 1. I’m concerned when I see so many Christians dedicated to everything but ...read more

Faith And The Iron Chariots

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Jun 4, 2021

We often believe that God can help us, but only up to a certain point. This belief conceals a measure of self-trust. If Judah had demonstrated the same faith about the chariots of iron as about the mountaineers, the chariots of iron would have been no better than chariots of straw.

Background: Joshua had divided the inheritance among the children of Israel. However, there were still lands to be ...read more
