Water Baptism And The Lord’s Supper by Brian Farrell(331) I. Water Baptism And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, " All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. " Amen. Matthew 28:18-20 Water baptism is our public declaration that we have given our lives to Christ. We are baptized in obedience to Christ’s command. Water baptism symbolizes death to self and being raised from spiritual death and separation from God to a new and eternal life with God. Water...

We all have a natural sense of right and wrong, but where do our standards for right and wrong come from? Evolution suggests morality is simply biological programming developed as a necessary function to propagate the human species. If morality is reduced to biology, standards are necessarily relative to the individual or the individual’s group. The bible indicates that there are... (continue reading)

Some Thoughts On Prayer Based Upon Matthew 6:5-8 by Marijo Phelps(317) Matthew 6:5-8 (NKJV) The Model Prayer “And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 6 But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. 7 And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words. 8 “Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask... (continue reading)		His Love by audrey Henderson(1) When I read the Bible, it seems that I often read some of the same things over and over again, and I understand why because the things that are repeated over and over again in the Bible are important. The one word that appears in the Bible a lot is ‘LOVE’. It appears 314 times. ‘LOVE’ is important because it is one of the laws of The Ten Commandments. The Ten Commandments tells us how to love, “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, thy soul, thy mind, and thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.” Jesus came to fulfill the law and the essence of the law is to love God and others. God is love. He loved us first (1 John 4:19). God loved us... (continue reading)

Do We Lose Something In Translation? by Cheery Blossom (61) I am writing this in hopes that I will get some feedback. When Jesus was preaching by the lake of Geneserat, He entered into Simon Peter’s ship, and sat and preached from there. Luke 5:3KJV. The thing that particularly got my attention, was the fact that Jesus told Peter to let down his nets(plural) Luke 5:4KJV Now when he had left speaking, He said unto Simon, launch out into the deep, and let down your nets (plural) for a draught. First, Simon Peter complained that they had been fishing all night, and hadn’t caught anything. Then, he said “nevertheless, at thy Word, I will let down the net (singular)” Luke 5:5KJV. Then, in verse 6, we are told they caught... (continue reading)		Self Examination and Being a Christian on Purpose by Teresa (1,456) " Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Prove yourselves. Do you not know yourselves that Jesus Christ is in you? - Unless indeed you are disqualified " 2 Corinthians 13:5 Lest my usage of this passage be misunderstood, let me explain. This passage in its full context has little to do with the external works that we do to prove our Christianity. It does however, have everything to do with our internal attitudes and what we purpose to do in our hearts. Paul says examine ourselves to see if we are in the faith - what does this mean? It implies a position of surrender; trusting something other than ourselves. In this case, trusting Christ. " Do you not know... (continue reading)
