    David Prepares to Die

    It does not always happen this way, yet I would not go so far as to call the situation unique. I have personally witnessed it on a few occasions. There, the family has gathered around the death bed of the loved one, tears streaming down their face, silently waiting for the end. Yet, the person ...read more

    Where are the Godly Men? Are They Extinct? Being godly is not for the week. Being godly is a lifestyle for every manly man in Christ. Are you up to it?

    1.- Where are the godly men? 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 - Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love. There are many men today that are living godless lives and not even thinking about it. But why?  The reality is that for many men, although they ...read more

    The Sacramental Gifts

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 27, 2018

    Every denomination has its own take on sacrament, and some deny that there are any sacraments, even Baptism, that are normally required for salvation. But Scripture helps us solve the problem.

    Thursday of the 4th Week in Course 2018 Reformation/Revolution The forty years that King David ruled over Israel were looked upon in later centuries as a kind of golden age, one that extended into the early years of his son, Solomon.

    Seeking knowledge from God pleases Him and helps us to discern and apply it correctly.

    We are given some background to this passage. David was King of Israel for forty years. He ruled seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem. Solomon succeeded his father after a bit of a struggle for succession and you can read about it in First Kings, Chapter 1. We know a few ...read more

    Solomon heeded David's advice to devote himself to keeping God's Law and deal with the threats to his Kingdom.

    The transition from one ruler to the next is not always a smooth one. • We see that in the election of a new president, in USA or Taiwan, or a new governor in Jakarta. It’s very political. • We see a different kind of transition in 1 Kings 2. David called Solomon and gave him very good advice ...read more

    Expectations – General And Specific – Great And Small Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 16, 2022
     | 3,102 views

    Expectations keep us hoping if they are good, and fearful if they are bad. There are many examples in the bible of expectations but I have selected only a few, then we look at Christian expectations. Even cricket is touched on.

    Do you want to enjoy intimacy with God and operate in His authority? In Zechariah 3 we are given two keys for that to happen. Additionally, it is only possible through Messiah Jesus seen here as Servant, the Branch, and the Chief Cornerstone.

    Today we return to our study of Zechariah. Zechariah, along with a faithful remnant, have returned from Babylonian captivity to Jerusalem. They are rebuilding the temple along with Ezra and restoring worship of the Lord in their homeland. For 70 years the nation has been living in Babylon as ...read more
