JUDGEMENT, HEAVEN & HELL

The most prominent warning of the Bible is its teaching concerning the upcoming Judgment Day. It reveals that man’s life on earth is a time of testing to see whether or not each individual will observe God’s Will (Deut. 8:1-2). Then, after death, comes the Judgment (Heb. 9:27). Every person who has ever lived will …

INTERPRETING THE BIBLE

The Bible teaches, in Ephesians 5:17, that we must interpret the Bible the way God meant it to be understood: “Do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.” Of course, in order to understand God’s will (the Bible), we must interpret it correctly. And it is obvious that it can …

THE INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE

The Bible teaches in 2 Timothy 3:16 that it is written by the inspiration of God. It states, “All scripture is given by the inspiration of God.” But, anybody can write a book and include a sentence declaring it is from God. What is needed is real proof that the Bible is indeed from God. …

THE EXISTENCE OF GOD

The Bible teaches that we can know that there is a God by examining the physical evidence in the world around us. One of many such verses is Romans 1:20: “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made.” This means, …

FOUL LANGUAGE

Every Christian is surely well aware that foul language has no part in the conversation of a child of God. Yet, due to the fact that such a practice in the world has escalated to epidemic proportions, this truth must be stressed, lest any of us become effected (1 Cor. 15:33).The American Heritage Dictionary defines …

Jesus Increased In…

“And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man” (Luke 2:52). This was spoken of Him when He was 12, but Jesus kept advancing in those four realms of life, even until we next read of Him at the age of 30. Since Jesus is our perfect example (1 Pet. …

MEDITATING DAY AND NIGHT ON: HOSPITALITY [Sixth in a Series of Six]

Philoxenia is the word which God chose to use when referring to the concept of, what we call, hospitality. The Greek lexicons define it as “love of strangers” (Vine; Thayer). The word is made up of two words, philos meaning “loving,” and xenos, “a stranger.” A verse which defines this word is Hebrews 13:2, “Be …
