WHO IS GOD?
Unfortunately, Christians too
often get their ideas of WHO GOD IS from television series, superstitions,
etc. Perhaps these articles could help your understanding of God.
God is GOD and there is no other. He is not passive or impotent in
any situation.
The Scripture tells us,
"When times are good, be
happy; but when times are bad, consider: God has made the one as well as
the other."

A CHRISTIAN NEW YEAR'S
RESOLUTION
Most New Year's resolutions are just a dream of an ideal. Let this
article challenge you to the impossible life of the spiritual. To
have several things "to do" is to dilute your effort and your focus.
With this ONE THING you will be more focused and by His grace you will be
more "conformed to the image of His Son."

THE OBEDIENCE OF FAITH
We know that we are "saved by grace through faith,"
but how do we live the Christian life? Is it not the same way we
entered into life? Is not Jesus the "Author
and Finisher of our faith"? Is it not true that the "just
shall live by faith"? How does that work out in the practical
application to our everyday life? Read this article and perhaps it
will clarify a few things about "Christ in you, the hope of glory."
"For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled
to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, shall
we be saved by his life."

Why Do Christians Suffer?
(NEW SECTION OF WEBSITE)
Sorrow and suffering are unavoidable facts of life. But in our
modern society they are so deeply feared that few of us ever think or talk
seriously about them. Occasionally we may see someone show great
faith in the face of severe trial, and yet never ask how that faith comes
about.
John J. Murray, Charles H. Spurgeon,
Oswald Chambers and
others share their thoughts and experiences. These thoughts they
share with us bear the marks of a precious stone, quarried from the deep
and dark places of their own experiences of pain and sorrow. It
speaks to the mind, giving wise counsel; it also speaks to the heart, and
brings a message of encouragement which points to the way of true peace.

Christians Aren't Broke
by A. Gene Veal

will never leave you nor forsake you"? You probably have

significant point of the context. Read this article and be

Christian Fellowship:
Testifying to Christ
by A. Gene Veal
Many functions in our
churches are erroneously labeled as fellowship. Church clean-up days,
multiple choice dinners, Bingo games, retreats, bridal showers, ministry
meetings, and Christmas parties are not the sort of fellowship we are
exhorted to have in Scripture. If we believe we are partaking of true
fellowship with one another in such social activities, we are missing the
boat. Read this article for a Scriptural perspective.

Sanctification
If you dare, read these
articles on Sanctification by J. C. Ryle and others. You will be challenged in your
Christian walk. Ryle writes, "It
is a subject of the utmost importance to our souls.
If the Bible be true, it is certain that unless we are
“sanctified “, we shall not be saved." Sanctification is the work
of Christ in the believer. The subject of this work of Christ by His Spirit is called in
Scripture a “sanctified” man.
