The Home of Classic Christian Bible Study
God's Word, The Bible - The Absolute Truth!
In
any museum we will find quite ordinary things - clothes, a walking
stick, a pen, pieces of furniture - which are only of value because
they were possessed and used by some great person. It is the ownership
which gives them worth. It is so with the Christian. The Christian
may be a very ordinary person, but he acquires a new value and
dignity and greatness because he belongs to God. The greatness
of the Christian lies in the fact that he is God's.(William Barclay)

1 Corinthians 15:25 For he must reign, till he hath put
all enemies under his feet.
I
like to read well worded Church signs. You know the kind
I mean those where you can put a message on them
every so often. I thank God that we have faithful men
who serve the Lord by periodically changing our Church
sign. I also thank God that our sign men know
how to put up a coherent message. I saw a Church sign
the other day that said something like:
Need
help? Psa 27:9; 40:17; Isa 50:9; 2 Cor 1:3-4
Though
I'm a Pastor and well versed in the Scripture that type
of sign made me scratch my head. The average person passing
by this sign won't understand........
Hebrews 11:8-10 By faith Abraham, when he was called to
go out into a place which he should after receive for an
inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither
he went. {9} By faith he sojourned in the land of promise,
as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac
and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: {10}
For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder
and maker is God.
What
is this thing we call faith? I was talking with
a dear friend today who received some rather distressing
news. As we talked about that news weeping and praying
together the Lord pointed something out to my heart.
You see, we often complicate our faith. We make this life
extraordinarily hard when we ...
John
14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you:
not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart
be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
A
few weeks ago I was at Parker's Crossroads to see the dedication
of the McPeake Cabin. This old log cabin was dedicated by
members of Rock Hill Baptist and is now on display at the
battleground in Parker's Crossroads. The cabin was beautifully
restored, and I really enjoyed looking at it. On the same
day a number of men and women came from all around and dressed
like they would have dressed back during the Civil War.
I took a lot of pictures as they fired the old cannons,
simulating battle between the North and South. I noticed
the clothing, and saw how people dressed in layers of clothing
the women in dresses that brushed the ground, and
men in long sleeved shirts and woolen coats. As it was around
90 degrees outside I could only imagine how hot these people
were, and how hearty our ancestors were. I noticed the old
washboards and clothes buckets where women had to scrub
and wring their clothes by hand. I looked at the old wood
stove that required a lot of preparation by both men and
women if anyone was going to eat. Things were primitive
even the old outhouses according to today's
standards. How blessed we are to live in this modern age.
But
we're also cursed. Though it no longer takes........
In the last message on Elijah, we saw two of the
seven miracles of Elijahs ministry. We
saw the miracle of the meal barrel and how the Lord
provided. We saw the resurrection of the young
lad. Never recorded in the Bible was anyone
else every resurrected from the dead. I was
thinking of the law of first mention of Bible study. This
is the key to the rest of the accounts of resurrections
in the Bible. The key to this is that only
God can resurrect someone from the dead. Also
Elijah prayed over the child three days. This
is a type of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus
where He was in the grave three days when He arose
from the dead. With the exception of the Lord
Jesus, everyone else who was resurrected died again
at one point of time. But when Jesus comes
back for His own, dying for the child of God will
no longer be a threat. We will be with Jesus
and see Him face to face.....
