Paul’s point here is that union with Christ comes through an act of repentance and faith. We are brought into union with the Lord Jesus. Through this, everything else flows. We didn’t come to Jesus by...

Hebrews 4:15 encourages us because we know Jesus overcame those temptations, and his example not only made him the perfect, unblemished sacrifice to pay our sin-debt, but it also provides a role model...

Prayer and Bible reading are not separate activities. The Bible is full of real, powerful prayers from faith warriors, and we can borrow their words in our own prayers. Let's take a look at what this ...

To be clear, I am not advocating for abortion because I believe life begins at conception and we should do everything we can to protect the life in the womb. However, the gray area I want to examine i...

Christianity can be intimidating. Especially once you get into circles that throw around words like "amillenialsim" "dispensation" or "exegesis." While these words may sound scary, often the real mean...

If we are devoted to the Lord, we become aligned with Him. If we stand against Him, we can be persuaded to turn toward Him. But Jesus claimed that tepid faith leaves us somewhere in the middle - halfw...

The bigger topic in this part of Paul’s letter is living the Christian life appropriately, how to have healthy relationships between believers, and what Christian marriage should look like. After he a...

Though we can conclude now that God is the same, what did the writer of Hebrews 13:8 mean when they said it thousands of years ago? How did they know?...
