At Pentecost God perfectly fulfilled his promise to empower His disciples to be His witnesses. Promise fulfillment provides certainty of God’s plan and pattern for His church. We are to be witnesses to the mighty works of God. We are to proclaim all that Christ has taught making disciples of all nations.   We have... Continue Reading

God has revealed “the immutability of his counsel” (Hebrews 6:17). His promises will never expire, for His plan will never change. We can trust His Word. Over the whole Bible flies this banner: “These words are true and faithful” (Revelation 21:5).   God’s Unchangeable Being Change fills our lives. The Greek philosopher Heraclitus famously said...

God’s revelation shapes every aspect of how we live, including how we approach education. Every curriculum rests upon a creed; every lesson conveys a worldview. The question is which creed, which faith? We welcome, therefore, the intellectual honesty that identifies God as the source of our rights, our duties, and the author of the best... Continue Reading

The tensions that can roil a church can be dealt with giving credence and compliance to those in authority who bring the word of God to bear.  ... Continue Reading

Dear Christian, you are called to spend all your resources for the sake of Christ’s glory. But if you do not digest the Word of God regularly, have a vibrant walk with Christ, or be regularly filled in a local church, then your well will run dry. But Christ is an endless source of life....

The curse which fell upon man and nature at Adam’s fall—and also the curse which falls upon all who break God’s holy Law—has been broken (and is being lifted) once and for all for all who believe.   The resurrection looks BACK to Christ’s righteous life and atoning death on the Cross, through which He...
