Sacrifices Is An Exchange

I do not really look at the things that I “sacrifice” as giving up something, I look at it as exchanging it for something better; a trade up rather than a trade off due to one being of more value instead of equal. I go to work to provide for my family, I sacrifice someContinue reading “Sacrifices Is An Exchange”

The Greatest Love Story Pt. 2

We are going to back up a bit, just before the world was created. You see, in heaven there was God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost. (along with Wisdom the angels and a few other characters we see throughout Scripture.) God the trinity does not have any beginning, nor endContinue reading “The Greatest Love Story Pt. 2”

The pearl of great price

David Morse, American missionary to India, became great friends there with the pearl-diver, Rambhau. Many an evening he spent in Rambhau’s cabin reading to him from the Bible, and explaining to him God’s way of salvation. Rambhau enjoyed listening to the Word of God, but whenever the missionary tried to get Rambhau to accept ChristContinue reading “The pearl of great price”

We are born breaking the law.

We are born breaking the law of God from the very beginning. Romans 3:23 says “far all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” this means that we have all broken the law even before we understood fully that there was a law. There is one who has not broken the law,Continue reading “We are born breaking the law.”

Double rainbow

Coming home from an amazing three days with my wife at a marriage retreat, we were talking about all the things that stood out to us. Because I have a deeply ingrained hatred for turnpikes, we decided to take the extra hour to avoid all toll roads. On our way home we noticed that weContinue reading “Double rainbow”

A mindset of a servant

My mother once told me, the true test of a servant is when you act like one, when treated like one. Sometimes we serve for the wrong reasons. We think it helps our image, or maybe it helps us feel productive and needed. There are many reasons why may want to serve, but being aContinue reading “A mindset of a servant”

Baptism

Today, we had a friend join our church and demonstrate her faith through baptism. Before she went back, our pastor allowed her to give a testimony. I asked her if we could post it here to encourage others. Both S.T. and I were amazed at the level of study and articulation she put into thisContinue reading “Baptism”

But Rather

This is from a friend of ours whom God, once again, brought to light His Word before her eyes. Luke 12:31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you. “I always have used Matthew 6:33 where it reads “seek ye first”, but Luke gives it aContinue reading “But Rather”
