How important is cleanliness to you? What if you were in a place where you haven’t bathed or showered for days, weeks, even years? Imagine how you would feel. Imagine how putrid the smell would be. Imagine how disease ridden one might get. Wouldn’t you do anything possible to get clean? What if someone came along and offered to make you clean, would you jump at the prospect? One might be clean outside, but we are all filthy sinners on the inside that need to be cleansed, and given new clothing. There is only one way to make ourselves clean, …

Or, any relationship.)

(JOHN 13:17)…..If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

1 Be thankful.

It all starts with attitude. If you don’t stay on the positive side, failure is inevitable. You cannot have a happy marriage without happy people. Have you noticed that unthankful people are never happy?

2 Express your appreciation.

Let your spouse know by word and deed that you appreciate them. Be specific and lavish in your praise and thanks. Nothing encourages people like encouragement.

People love people who love them. If you want your spouse to love you, the best thing …

“And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.” – (1 John 4:16)

The best and most wonderful word in heaven is Love. For God is Love. And the best and most wonderful word in the inner chamber must be – Love. For the God Who meets us there is Love. What is love? The deep desire to give itself for the beloved. Love finds its joy in imparting all that it has, to make the loved one happy. And …

(Galatians 3:13-14)…..Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Galatians tells us Christ redeemed us, so that the blessing of Abraham might come upon us. What were the blessings Abraham enjoyed? He was blessed in very many ways by God, financially, physically, family, descendants, crops, …

In this small portion of Scripture, we find the truth that all of us must rediscover. The gospel is not merely an introductory message to Christianity – it is the message of Christianity, and the believer would do well to give his life in the pursuit of knowing its glory and making its glory known. There are many things to be known in this world and countless truths to be investigated within the realm of Christianity itself; nevertheless, the glorious gospel of our blessed God and his son Jesus Christ …

(1 John 5:4)…..For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world – our faith.

We all love to win. Victory is sweet. One reason it’s so sweet is that it’s usually not easy. Victory takes effort, often great effort. Effort is also required in the spiritual battle of good against evil we are all engaged in. But the effort required of us is to maintain our attitude of faith in God and His Word. We cannot overcome the strategies of …

What do you enjoy? In life, what is the one thing delights your soul. For those in the world it could be anyone or anything. But for the believer it has to be the LORD Himself. I don’t mean for that to sound cliche, but it is true. In (Psalm 37:4), God’s word says, “Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.” You should enjoy the Lord, not just serve Him out of obligation. If you have a friend you enjoy being …

Romans 5:18 tells us that Adam’s one sin brought condemnation for everyone, but Christ’s one act of righteousness brings a right relationship with God and new life for everyone. the word Gospel means good news. It was not originally a religious word, but meant good news which makes people happy and excited. If what you have heard about Jesus Christ does not make you happy and excited, then you have not yet truly heard and understood the Gospel as it is meant to be understood.

The basic outline is that …

Does the gospel, the good news that God saved you from sin and judgment by His great love and mercy, cause your heart to rejoice and your soul to be flooded with gratitude? Does the fact that you could have been a vessel of wrath prepared for destruction, but instead you’re a vessel of mercy, which God prepared beforehand for glory, cause you to marvel and ask, “Why me?” If you grew up in a Christian home or you’ve been saved for a long time, you face the danger of …

 Many people today do not believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. But for the believer (the disciple of Jesus Christ) the resurrection of Jesus Christ is an actual, true, event that is reason for our celebration in the spring. It is a foundational truth without which the gospel ceases to be good news. If Christ was not raised from the grave then nothing we do in the faith has any meaning (1 Corinthians 15:12-19).

So what significance does the resurrection have for us? Let me give you five reasons. …
