Warm lights of a hillside town at evening

Wisdom

Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the Day of Judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world (1 John 4:17)

Our theme verse is somewhat too big for some to grasp. They wonder, “How can we be like God?” Well, we didn’t know we were like Him until He told us.

Salvation

Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God (Philippians 1:11)

Jesus said, “Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them” (Matthew 7:20). You can’t have fruits of something you’re not. An orange tree can only produce orange fruits.

A gentle flame of light above calm water

Salvation

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new (2 Corinthians 5:17)

Contrary to what many think, it doesn’t take much to be born again. All that’s required is to come into Christ.

Soft morning light rising over layered green hills

Wisdom

When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory (Colossians 3:4)

Christ is our life! Blessed be God! Just the thought causes the power of God to course through my being. We’re not ordinary.

A single lamp glowing softly against deep green

Prayer

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority… (1 Timothy 2:1-2)

In Acts 13:6-12, we find a very interesting story about the missionary work of Barnabas and Paul in Paphos—a city known for a combination of immorality and darkness.

Two warm lights glowing side by side at dusk

Salvation

He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD (Psalm 33:5)

Some don’t believe that the earth is truly full of the goodness of God. But that’s exactly what the verse above unequivocally declares.

Christian Living

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? (Mark 8:36)

Our opening verse is an important food for thought. No man can truly “gain” the world without Jesus because it belongs to Him. He owns the world.

A golden sun rising above a calm horizon

Christian Living

He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given (Matthew 13:11)

Those who don’t know God are quick to say, “His ways are not our ways, His thoughts are not our thoughts.” But for us who are born again, His ways are our ways.

Salvation

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek (Romans 1:16)

As God’s children, our role in the Gospel is clearly defined. Our Lord Jesus said, “...Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature” (Mark 16:15).

Prayer

And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy… (Acts 2:17)

Did you notice that the first response or result of having the Spirit poured out upon all flesh is that men and women would prophesy?

Faith

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1)

Imagine that someone, a very rich person that you know, gives you a signed cheque and says, “Fill in any amount you want!” God gave Solomon a blank cheque by asking him,…
