(1 Corinthians 13:9)…..For we know in part and we prophesy in part. The apostle Paul, who was caught up into Heaven, given divine revelation (2 Corinthians 12:1-4) and wrote down most of the New Testament, said we only know in part. If Paul would include himself in that statement, how much more it must be true for us. One problem we have is too many people think they know more than they really do. One thing we know is that God is bigger than us, bigger in knowledge, bigger in wisdom, and He certainly knows more than …
Should I Study God’s Word?
I am confident that most of you, if asked, believe that the Bible is God’s infallible word, and that it contains the most important, and powerful words that have ever been given to man. But let me give you some statistics about the role of the Bible in American households from the Barna Research Group. It is reported that 92% of the households in America have a Bible, among those having bibles the average household has three. And less than half the people in the United States can name the first book of the Old Testament. In …
Unworthy! But Here We Sit!
(1 Corinthians 11:22-34)…..22 What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and shame those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this? I do not praise you. 23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; this …
New Covenant in My Blood
(Hebrews 8:13)…..In that He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. The Old Covenant was an agreement between God and the children of Israel. We have the record of it in the Old Testament. The New Covenant is an agreement between God and Jesus Christ. Therefore it includes all who are united with Jesus Christ, or as the Bible says, all those who are “in Christ.” The name we give to the 27 books …

The Supremacy Of Christ
The first four verses of Hebrews is one of the most informative sentences relating to Jesus saying: “God, who at various times and in different ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds; who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself …
The Value Of Scripture
(2 Timothy 3:14-17)…..14 But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them, 15 and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.…
Is The Cross Foolishness?
(1 Corinthians 1:18-25)…..18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written:
“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise,
And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”
20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom …
The Word “Gospel”
I want you to read the verse again from yesterday’s devotion, but I want to focus in on another word that is used in that passage, the word “gospel.” (Romans 16:21-27)…..21 Timothy, my fellow worker, and Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my countrymen, greet you. 22 I, Tertius, who wrote this epistle, greet you in the Lord. 23 Gaius, my host and the host of the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, greets you, and Quartus, a brother. 24 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ …
Give Praise To God
(Romans 16:21-27)…..21 Timothy, my fellow worker, and Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my countrymen, greet you. 22 I, Tertius, who wrote this epistle, greet you in the Lord. 23 Gaius, my host and the host of the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, greets you, and Quartus, a brother. 24 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. 25 Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation …
