Isaiah 1:16-17 says, "Stop doing wrong, learn to do right!" To learn how to keep my cart from ending up in the ditches, I had to learn to do right! I'm still learning, but thank goodness my cart is staying on the path far more consistently these days. Doing right is a learned behavior that comes from being taught. The word disciple means "pupil" or "learner." We will never cease to be God's children, but when we cease learning and being tea..

I believe heaven will be far more creative than most believers seem to picture it. Surely a God who created this world with all its magnificence, diversity, and experience does not have an eternal home that is like a one-act play. I hardly think so. Nor can I buy that we'll always be in one huge corporate gathering. How in the world could private encounters happen with millions of the redeemed in heaven? The way I see it, that's one reason ..

You and I have each experienced times when we've prayed our hardest for two different people to be healed of physical illness. One is delivered on earth; the other is delivered in heaven. We've also prayed for people struggling to make ends meet. One gets a job; sometimes the other loses her home. So why does God so often bring such different results from the same depth of earnest, believing prayer? 1) We don't know; 2) we're not supposed t..

The only excuse for even a single ounce of victory in my life is the supernatural delivering power of Jesus Christ. I was in the clutches of a real, live devil, living in a perpetual cycle of defeat. Only a miracle-working God could have set me free, then dared to use me. You may remark, "That's not a real miracle!" but Scripture suggests that no greater work exists. The most profound miracles of God will always be those within the hearts a..

Is He a light to you, or the Light? Is He a way for you to follow--perhaps here and there in life--or is He the way you want to go? Is He a means to the afterlife in your opinion? In other words, deep down inside do you think that several world religions probably offer a viable way to life after death and Jesus is but one of them? Or is He the resurrection and the life? Be as honest as possible in your response to the following question: Be..

Pride lives on the defensive against anyone and anything that tries to subtract from its self-sustained worth. Confidence, on the other hand, is driven by the certainty of God-given identity and the conviction that nothing can take that identity away.

Don't think your testimony is meaningless if you didn't have a dramatic conversion. Every conversion cost the same amount of Christ's blood shed on the cross. Yours is just as meaningful as the most dramatic conversion ever told.

we have never had the experience of taking our commonplace religious shoes off our commonplace religious feet, and getting rid of all the undue familiarity with which we approach God, it is questionable whether we have ever stood in His presence. The people who are flippant and familiar are those who have never yet been introduced to Jesus Christ. After the amazing delight and liberty of realizing what Jesus Christ does, comes the impenetra..

When a scribe asked Jesus in Mark 12:28 which of all God's commandments was paramount, He reached into the warm, beating heart of the law and raised these words above the rest: "This is the most important . . . Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength."11"

Make no mistake: Satan's specialty is psychological warfare. If he can turn us on God ("It's not fair!"), turn us on others ("It's their fault!"), or turn us on ourselves ("I'm so stupid!"), we won't turn on him. If we keep fighting within ourselves and losing our own inner battles, we'll never have the strength to stand up and fight our true enemy."
