Wonder When?

Pre-Tribulation or Post-Tribulation – Many wonder when Jesus is coming to take His Bride, the Church to the place He promised He went to prepare. Recently I read a great book entitled “The Rapture; Fact or Fiction?” by Dr. David Reader.  For those who believe in the love of God, it makes sense that Jesus…

JUDE

Jude is another brother of Jesus. He also hung out with the apostle Peter after the Lord’s final physical departure from earth.  His letter diagnoses and confronts the unseen spiritual disease in the early church. “The Lord first saves a people out of Egypt and later destroyed those who did not believe…these dreamers likewise defile…

JAMES

James, the brother of Jesus, confronts deceitfulness directly.  Perhaps it was because for years, he had personally been so deceived about Who the Messiah is. Our human nature is quick to speak and slow to listen and understand. James literally opposed the claims that his brother Jesus made. James was not convinced that Jesus was…

HEBREWS

Many times people of faith feel as though they need to explain Jesus.  The religions of yesterday and today have all failed in their attempt to supplement the pure Word of God.  The letter to the Hebrews is good to reread when our focus has shifted to what other people have written or said about…

TITUS and PHILEMON

Paul writes to encourage Titus, the Bishop of Crete. This was the second difficult post for Titus. His previous mission was to tactfully persuade the church in Corinth to return to the teachings of Jesus. This letter offers practical solutions for dealing with a stubborn people. The congregations in Crete were mostly home based prayer…

1st and 2nd TIMOTHY

Pastor Paul writes an outline for the administration of the first churches. His young protégé Timothy was entrusted with the responsibility to properly supervise the church in Ephesus.  Paul had personally discipled Timothy and he calls him “my son whom I love, who is faithful to the Lord.” Timothy had seen Paul operating in God’s…

1st and 2nd Thessalonians

The forward looking believers in Thessalonica were excited as they waited for the second coming of the Lord. The subject of the Lord’s return is emphasized 318 times in 260 chapters of the New Testament.  The birth of Jesus was the first appearance of the promised Messiah, and we know that “He is surely coming…

COLOSSIANS

People that have never read the full story of Jesus, which includes the entire length of the Bible, often dismiss Him as an insignificant person. The same was true of the common people who lived in Colossae. Most of what Jesus had said was watered down as “hearsay”. The citizens of Colossae concluded that Buddha…

PHILLIPIANS

This letter is full of Paul’s infectious joy! Whenever these inspired words are read, it is like the Spirit inside is dancing in delight. While you read this letter, consider the fact that Paul was in prison, chained to a guard as he wrote it. His words are a bright light of hope for all.…
