“Speaking the Truth”
“What is worse than speaking the truth? Keeping quiet. God has told His people to speak the truth, to the believers and the unbelievers and to do so boldly. The Apostle Paul and Stephen stood up and gave us an example of how we should stand up and speak truth about the evildoers and that [...]

Harvest and the Blessing of Peace
The Blessing of Peace
Scripture declares that “peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness” (James 3:18). Do you want to produce a harvest of righteousness in your family? James says that you should not expect this to occur in a home marked by fighting and quarrelling. It will happen in families where peacemakers [...]

Women and the Knowledge of God
http://www.theologygirls.blogspot.com/
Theology and Women:
Many Christian women are under the false idea that the “study of God” is only for men. There is nothing so far from the truth. All of God’s children, men, women and children are called to “know” God; study to “know” God and to grow [...]
Home, Heart and Openness of Hand
“The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will have no lack of gain. She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life.” Proverbs 31:11,12
“It is in her own home—that this warmth of heart and this openness of hand are first to be shown. It is as wife and [...]
“A Sweet, Beautiful Home”
Home is the true wife’s kingdom.
Very largely does the wife hold in her
hands, as a sacred trust, the happiness
and the highest good of the hearts that
nestle there. In the last analysis, home
happiness depends on the wife.
Her spirit gives the home its atmosphere.
Her hands fashion its beauty.
Her heart makes its love.
And the end is so [...]
Let us not fail to learn the secret of receiving much from Christ…
JUNE 17.
“You meet him that rejoices and works righteousness, those that remember you in your ways.” Isaiah 64:5
Let us not fail to learn the secret of receiving much from Christ- even the free dispensing abroad of what we have already received. Be assured of this, that he will receive the most from God who does [...]
Think Before You Teach
“Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers,
for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.”
James 3:1
Think Before You Teach
In our Joypals group, we have been studying Carol Ruvolo’s “James on Works” which I would highly recommend for women’s Bible-Book studies. I always enjoy Carol’s studies because she “digs deep” [...]

The Surety of God’s All Sufficient Grace
ALL SUFFICIENT GRACE*
God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that you, always having all-sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good word and work.” —2 Corinthians 9:8
All-sufficiency in all things! Believer! Surely you are “thoroughly furnished!” Grace is no scanty thing, doled out in pittances. It is a glorious treasury, which [...]

“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”
Matthew 6:21
February 14 is the day we celebrate Valentines Day, the “happy heart” or “sweetheart” day. The special one in which we demonstrate the love we have for another. I am reminded of past Valentine celebrations with red heart-shaped boxes [...]

Satan, a defeated foe…

“Heavenly Notes”
May 2007
In counseling we often hear from the counselee (believer) that he/she feels “defeated” and cannot get a grasp on Romans 12:31 “If God is for us, who can be against us? Because they carry around old baggage of their belief of “Satan’s control” over their lives and the misunderstanding [...]

My Times Are In His Hands
“My times are in your hand.” Psalm 31:15
Our times of adversity are also in God’s hand. As every sunbeam that brightens, so every cloud that darkens, comes from God. We are subject to great and sudden reverses in our earthly condition. Joy is often succeeded by grief, prosperity by adversity. We are on the pinnacle [...]
“Faith & The World” – 2007 – Pilgrimage & Victory
O Lord,
The world is artful to entrap,
approaches in fascinating guise,
extends many a gilded bait,
presents many a charming face.
Let my faith scan every painted bauble,
and escape every bewitching snare
in a victory that overcomes all things.
In my duties give me firmness, energy, zeal,
devotion to thy cause,
courage in thy name,
love as a working grace,
and all commensurate with my [...]
“Christ, Our Hope”
HOPE
The beauty of Christmas is Christ and this advent season as I thought about Christ, our hope for life and death, I reflected on Scriptures of this theme and was reminded of the blessedness that we have in Christ who is our only hope for today and tomorrow and forever. Christ is eternal life, Christ [...]
“The Advent of Jesus Christ”
The Advent of Jesus Christ
Rev. Charles R. Biggs
Dear People of God,
One famous Christmas song gleefully declares: “It’s the most wonderful time of the year!” That of course means different things to different people. For the Christian, this “most wonderful time of the year” should be a time of celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ [...]
