(Hebrews 10:19-20)…..19 Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh….. I can remember when I first came across this verse in my studies of Hebrews. I love how Christ Himself is the veil between the Holy God, and sinful people. How the veil of the temple was only a type or picture of Christ Himself. He being that veil only goes to show that unless …
Head Coverings – Why?
( 1 Corinthians 11:2-16)…..Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you. 3 But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. 4 Every man praying or prophesying, having hishead covered, dishonors his head. 5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if …
But God Who Gives Increase!
(1 Corinthians 3:5-11)…..Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one? 6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. 8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor. 9 For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are God’s …
For You Do Not Know The Hour
(Matthew 24:42)…..Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. Continuing from yesterday’s devotional, “as in the days of Noah”, where the people were caught off-guard. The point our Lord makes is that they did not know until the flood came, there was no sense of any coming disaster, there wickedness continued on – despite the preaching of Noah for one hundred and twenty years, warning his generation that God would judge the world for their sin. And despite the familiar sight of the huge …
As It Was In The Days Of Noah
(Matthew 24:37-39)…..But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. Jesus presses His second coming by comparing it to the days of Noah. The last days will be like …
No One Knows The Time!
(Matthew 24:36-51)….“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels ofheaven, but My Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.…
Receive The Implanted Word
(James 1:21-25)…..Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and …

Judging Others – OK Or Not?
(James 4:11-12)…..Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. He who speaks evil of a brother and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. 12 There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?
In the world we live in there is a strong tendency to condemn, criticize, backbite, gossip, or speak evil of someone else. It is the …
Are You A Doer Of His Word
(James 1:21-27)…..Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty …
