If You are the Son of God

Luke 4 : 3 – 4, And the devil said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread." But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.'" - NKJV Acts 1 : 9 - 11, Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel, who also said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven." - NKJV Was Jesus really the Son of God? Is Christianity more than just another religion? I want to give you some truths to think about while you consider the questions I’ve written.   Unlike man’s religions, the God of the Bible doesn’t expect us to believe in Him without any proof that His...

The Unity of the Faith

Ephesians 4 : 11 – 13, And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ… - NKJV Psalm 133 : 1, Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! - NKJV It is God’s will that Christians learn to live in unity with one another. The Lord has directed me to share two scriptures that speak about unity in the church. Through these, we can see the importance that God places on us coming into the unity of the faith.   If it is God’s will that all believers in Christ come into the unity of the faith, why is it so difficult for us to accomplish it? We must remember that we have an adversary, the devil, which seeks to stir up strife and division ...

What is Truth?

John 18 : 37 – 38, Pilate therefore said to Him, "Are You a king then?" Jesus answered, "You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice." Pilate said to Him, "What is truth?" - NKJV Have you taken time to ask yourself, “Where did I originate?” Every human understands that they are the offspring of their parents, but where did our soul/consciousness originate? According to Psalm 139 and Jeremiah 1, God knew us before our bodies were formed within the womb.   There are many people in the world who believe that life simply came into existence without the aid of a Creator. Think about that theory for a moment. Man can make anything they can imagine, but we can’t create life. We can’t create animals. We can’t create plant-life. Men can only plant seeds. It is God who causes the seeds to produce living things. S...
