Every six months or so my husband Reed and I intentionally sit down together and assess how we’re doing with habits, routines, and working towards our life‐long goals. Well, we recently discovered a resource to help us do a very thorough assessment.
Did you know that the popular Christmas carol "Joy to the World" was written about the second coming of Jesus Christ? Though we sing it along with songs about the birth of our Savior, its lyrics describe an event yet future. Let's take a deeper look and see how the prophetic lyrics align with Scripture.
What is truth? Pilate’s famous inquiry is the same question that has perplexed the world from the fall of man all the way to the age of fake news. Some people ask it in contempt or disillusionment, while others are sincere truth seekers. In this post, we’re taking a look at five traits of people who put truth at the top of their priority list.
One of the main causes of confusion in the book of Revelation is that it builds up to the Day of the Lord several times. In this article, we will work through these narrative jumps to highlight the clear chronological sequence of events at the end of the age.
A strategic Christian follows God's righteous path in the land of the living. The Bible tells us that the path of life is not an easy one, as we know all too well in today's culture, but God promises "to smooth the path for the righteous" (Isaiah 26:7). Those who stay the course will be blessed!
Only God has the wisdom to balance His standard of righteousness with His desire to save. If that balance ever looks off from our point of view, we can rest assured that the error is in our human perspective. God's ways are perfect, and trusting them will always be in our best interest.
As long as we reside in this world, there will always be lawless ones among us. We are called to be good seed "who have heard the word in an honest and good heart, and hold it fast, and bear fruit with perseverance" (Luke 8:15) until the coming of our Lord and Savior. What kind of fruit are you bearing for the kingdom?
How do we begin to understand God's prophetic timetable for the last days? The Bible tells us that in Christ "are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." If we want to know the mysteries of God's plan, the answers can be found in communing with the Word of God — Christ Jesus.
By strengthening our faith muscles now, we'll stand ready to discern the truth as the days get darker. Now more than ever we must be living in close fellowship with the Lord and taking in His Word daily.
