The entire Book of Galatians is summed up in Galatians 5:1 Paul begins by reminding us that Jesus Christ did not come to this earth to establish another religion, to give us more rules, to add more regulations, to burden us with more restrictions. He...

Being religious, trying to keep whatever religious laws any religion tells you you have to obey and follow, do the rituals, obey the rules, follow the regulations, and keep the restrictions will not only not get you any closer to God, but these things...

It is one thing to have a relationship with God. It is another thing to have a relationship with God and be sure of it. It is another thing to know you have a relationship with God and be sure of it, but also to know that that relationship is forever...

From Genesis 1:1 we see a picture of God's perfect creation, by Chapter 3 stained by sin and disobedience. Yet God was already at work on His ultimate plan of restoration. The Lord's Supper is a picture of God's redemption plan played...

The way that God starts with you is the way you finish with him. You start with God through his grace and your faith and that is the way you finish. The way that you avoid the shackles of legalism and continue to breathe the fresh air of liberty that...

David understood the principle of authority. God has built authority into the very fabric of life. There is no such thing as life without authority. David lived in a kingdom. He was under kingdom authority. Saul, as the king, was the embodiment of...

Jesus told the truth that until you meet Jesus, know Jesus, and have Jesus you really don’t ever have life. There is only one life worth living. The Apostle Paul shares with both believers and unbelievers what that life looks like and why it is the...

Paul’s major point in Galatians is because of Jesus, you are free from rules, regulations, ritual and even religion. None of those things have anything to do with establishing a relationship with God. The one thing you must know that you must hear and...

The resurrection of Jesus Christ is not only what makes Christ different from every other person who ever lived, and superior to every other person who ever lived, and sets him apart for every other person who ever lived. Every other person who has...

The way Jesus died sets him apart. Crucifixion itself was not unique. Thirty thousand Jews were crucified by the Romans, and Jesus was just one of them, but why he died and what his death accomplished was unique. The reason he died and the result of...

One of the most encouraging and uplifting things you ever learn about Jesus that gives all of us hope with all of the temptations that we face, and all the failures that we have,and all the faults we have to battle is we have a Savior who is...

Don't be held captive to the "what if's" of life. God never promised us safety, but He has promised us security. Through life's challenges, look for ways to advance the Gospel, relying on the confidence we have in Christ that...

Never before had God ever asked for a human sacrifice. Now, here is God telling Abraham to take the son that he had promised him, the son that carried every hope he had, and offer him up as a sacrifice. Before you jump to any conclusions, there is a...

Only one thing stands between the Jewish nation and complete annihilation–a Jewish country girl turned queen, named Ester. She is the only person in the world who can change the mind of the king and turn the tide from tragedy to triumph. To do this...

Jesus doesn’t measure what people give the way we measure what people give. He doesn’t look at the portion that people give; Jesus looked at the proportion of what people give. He didn’t look at how much people put on the table; Jesus looked at how...

How did Joseph keep from being burned by the fire of bitterness? Avoid drowning in a sea of bitterness? Becoming immune to the poison of bitterness?  It is because he refused to do four things that even though stated negatively will bring a positive...

Your word and your deeds must align in order to honor the Lord.

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful individuals with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated...
