Have No Fellowship With The Unbeliever Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness?   And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?   And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? …

Our Sufficiency

Reading today in 2 Corinthians and chapters 1 through 3. Do we begin again to commend ourselves?

Prospering In A Foreign Land

Keep in mind that prospering means more than in material, or politic, or popularity. Today's reading is Daniel 4 through 6.

The Question of David’s Son

The Pharisees claimed to believe the word of God.  They had attached many traditions to their beliefs and practices; and probably due to this had become blind to who Jesus was and is.

Beasty Kingdoms

God reveals the kingdoms of men as beasts of the earth.  Beasts like a “Lion with eagle’s wings” (7:4),  “a bear… with ribs in its mouth” (7:5), “a leopard, which had four wings on its back…” (7:6); then, a fourth beast “dreadful and terrible”.  These beasts represent human governments which the LORD was showing Daniel …
