How to increase our faith.

How can we increase our faith?  Is it possible to have more faith then another believing Christian, or are all believers given the same amount.  Faith is a very desirable quality that God is pleased to see in his children.  Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh …

How do we see God?

                How should we view God? Does it make any difference how we see or perceive him? I certainly think it does. If we think we know who God is, yet do not understand his true character, then we may find we are worshiping a false god, and …

Why did Jesus not destroy us all?

The Passover and Easter season are approaching, and I have been thinking more on the Lord’s suffering and crucifixion.  The Holy Bible indicates that Jesus was beaten for our healing, and crucified for our salvation.  1 Peter 2:24 24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being …

The wages of sin is Death.

Daily we sin, and daily we are forgiven. Daily we fall, and daily we are lifted up. Daily we come short of the mark, and daily we are helped and guided toward it. Lets remember that each day, a born again Christian, is washed clean by the blood of our Lord Jesus. None of us …

Is God too good to be true?

The promises of God seem almost to good to be true. The Gospel is, The Good News! There is an old saying, if something seems to good to be true it probably is. We have been conditioned our whole lives to be sceptical of something that appears too good. Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to …

Some promises of God.

All the good promises of God are ours, by accepting  Jesus as or Lord and Savior. 2 Corinthians 1: 20 For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. Romans 8 : 31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for …

In God we trust.

    I find I still have trouble with idols.  Anything we put our trust in above Jesus becomes an idol for us.  For me I always fall back on trusting money, or not trusting when there is lack of it. I came across a verse in Isaiah that spoke to me about this problem. …

Why did God respect Abel’s offering and not Cain’s?

The Bible says God had respect to Abel’s offering of the firstling of his flock, but had not respect to the offering of Cain when he offered the fruit of the ground.  Why would God make such a distinction? It might appear as if God is not just, and arbitrarily chooses to have respect or …
