It was great to get out of bed and start a new day. I’m a person who has obeyed the gospel of Christ. I have repented of sin, confessed the name of the Lord and been baptized in water to have my sins washed away. Luke 13.3. Rom 10.9-10. Acts 2.38. Acts 22.16. Because I have done so, I’m a new creature, a child of God and I show appreciation for the little things which many people overlook.
2 Cor 5.17. Rom 6.1-17. I appreciate God force field of protection which He coats me with, as I go out among men. Psa 23rd chapter. Psa 34.7. With the word of the Lord installed in my mind, I’m able to confront the challenge of evil and error and to successfully push back. Eph 6. 10-18. Hebrews 13.6. Thank God! At the end of each day, I can sleep at night, knowing that God is keeping order and if its His will, I get a chance to get up and do it all over again. But what about you? You can have the same assurance in life, but only if you obey the gospel of Christ. Rom 1.16. Can we help you do so?

A man said that when he teaches a bible class or preaches, he goes deep.
What is he saying? What does he mean about the word deep? Is he talking over the students -heads? Does he think he is smarter and better than his listeners? I don’t know the answer to that, but I do know that teachers need to educate on a level that gets understanding from their listeners. The church at Corinth was admonished by the apostle Paul to make sure that the audience understood every word. 1 Corinthians 15.1-33. It’s ridiculous to read or listen to a sermon if the speaker is making it difficult. Philip the evangelist asked a man “Do you understand what you are reading?” He asked that because it was important. So, make sure you know the audience to whom you are speaking and give them the understanding they need. Pro 4.7. Eph 5. 17. Two men who didn’t agree on what the Bible teaches, sat down to discuss their differences.
One of the men brought his bible and had scriptures prepared to read to the other guy. However, the other guy didn’t bring a Bible; he just came empty handed. Where is your bible the first man asked? Oh, I didn’t plan to bring one, I just want you to hear me out on this subject. The man who brought his bible said, no thanks, I don’t want to hear what you have to say. What you have to say can’t do anything for you or me. I want to hear what God has to say and that is why I brought my Bible. Matt 17.5 If you can get your hands on a bible you will have no problem seeing I’m telling you the truth.
Acts 17:11. According to the bible, no man is the head of the church (Eph 5:23. Col 1:18. Eph 1:22-23). That honor goes to Jesus because He is the builder of the church. Matt 16:16-19. While men have churches which they established and men serving as the head of those churches; such isn’t right because no man has the right to establish a church; instead men must build upon the foundation Jesus established. 1 Cor 3:11. Churches started by men have no salvation because they are founded by men building upon sand, Matt 7:24-27. In a region no man has the biblical authority to serve as head over churches in that area. In the bible, each local church was self govern having its own overseers which are two or more men serving in the office called the Eldership or Bishops. Acts 20:17-28. Phil 1:1. People aren’t following the bible, instead they are doing as they please and expect God to accept them but God will not be doing so. Matt 7:13-23. Matt 15:7-14. Mark 7:7-9. 2 Tim 4:3-4. |
