“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 …

(ACTS 1:11) This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.”

Jesus of Nazareth, born into this earth by the virgin Mary, who was the pre-existent, eternal, Creator God, and who suffered and died on a cross as mankind’s substitute, is coming back to earth again.

You probably have questions, such as “When?” and “Why?”

Fortunately, the Bible does give us answers, just not as many as most of us would like.

Godly people, throughout history, have …

May we understand, with all God’s people, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love really is. May we experience the love of Christ, though it is so great we will never fully grasp it this side of heaven. Then we will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

How can words describe, or humans fully understand, something that is as deep as God Himself? God’s love is greater than words have the ability to communicate. It is impossible to put into …

It seems that the theme of “JOY” has come up in several conversations this past and present weeks. I have heard several times “Count it all joy when you fall into various trials….” and “Rejoice always and I say rejoice.” After all isn’t joy being produced in us through the cultivating and pruning work of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22)? But where is this joy directed? To this world and the stuff in it, or to the LORD of heaven and all He has there. Listen to the words of this …

Have you given much thought lately of where the world is headed? You might be asking, “what’s up with Israel these days? I think we are closer than we realize to the return of Jesus Christ our LORD. But as we eagerly wait for His return, the world, and the devil are preparing for the anti-christ’s arrival. The man of sin (anti-christ) is the one of whom the Scripture calls – the prince to come (Daniel 9:26-27). His coming will be according to the working of satan (John 8:44), …

(Genesis 1:26)…..Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” (Genesis 1:26)

Here we have the first of man – his origin and his destiny entirely Divine. God undertook the stupendous work of making a creature who is not God, to be a perfect likeness of Him in His Divine glory. …

(Philippians 4:4)…..Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! How many time have you read this verse, or heard it spoken by someone else? It is a small verse with a very tall order, at least it is for me. At least five times the Bible tells the people of God to rejoice in the Lord. We may not always be able to rejoice in other people, or in our circumstances. But we can rejoice in the LORD. Certainly, people can be frustrating. People can be immature. People can …

Having been declared righteous, we have peace toward God through our Lord Jesus Christ, much more, then, having been declared righteous now in his blood, we shall be saved through him from the wrath…..

The Bible clearly teaches that doctrine throughout its pages. It becomes even clearer when you realize that often the same word that is translated “righteous or made righteous” is instead translated “just or justified.” The Bible is full of rich truths like this, but they are not always on the surface. It can take a little digging …
