Overcoming Bitterness and Resentment

Overcoming Bitterness and Resentment "Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many" (Hebrews… Continue

Freedom from Rules and New Life in Christ

(Due to some teaching that comes across in blogs, I thought this was an appropriate scripture to add here... Colossians 2:6-23, NLT. God's Word says it better than I can. May you know the freedom that is found only in Christ.) 6 And now, just as you accepted Christ Jesus as your Lord, you must continue to follow him. 7 Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulne… Continue

What is Truth? (Part 4)

(Another from AUG07... see previous posts...) I’ve been thinking how the truth affects different people. It’s just like a light shining into a dark place. People react to the truth in one of two ways. Some are drawn like moths, while others scatter like cockroaches. And people are in the dark for one of two reasons… either ignorance or rebellion. Some don’t know because they haven’t heard. Others don’t know because they don’t WANT to hear. And that is why Jesus came… to shine a light o… Continue

WAY too HEAVY!!

At our Tuesday night Bible study, we'd been studying Hebrews. We've just come to the end and finished chapter 13 a couple of weeks ago. It only took us just under two years. (You can't rush these things!!) :-) Anyhow, rewind eight chapters back!! We were looking at chapter 5 and talking about the priesthood. When I think of a priest, I'd think of someone dressed in nice clothes, and ver… Continue

Words for the Weary!

(Posted last July on one of my other blogs...) Here are some thoughts from the Bible on "Yokes and Burdens" ...

Firstly, some words from Jesus:

"At that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. Even so, Father,

The Power of the Tongue!

It's a stinkin' hot day here. About 37C!! No energy to do anything much, so watching TV seemed a good option. I came in at the end of an old war movie about Nazi Germany. (Don't ask me the name of the movie.) A trial was on, and a young German soldier (the accused) was giving his defense. He spoke a message to the youth of Germany. It started out with words that pleased his accusers, saying that he had learned his lesson about rebelling against the authorities. But he finished off by speaking… Continue

The Debt that Needs to Be Paid

We are all born sinners. That means that we all owe God something in order to become whole. In the Old Testament He provided blessings by giving atonement for sins by the blood of an innocent, unblemished animal. This beast became the scapegoat so that they could be free to receive His blessings. Jesus came down from heaven to redeem you; to pay your sin debt once and for all. He became the scapegoat for your sins. Jesus Christ died on the cross in order to forgive you and set you free. You in… Continue
