The concept of an eye for an eye essentially means that if someone hurts you in some way, you repay them with a punishment that fits the crime. In the literal sense, if someone takes out your eye, you...

God’s Word is straight-forward. There is no codex to these numbers; they are numbers God chooses to use to communicate to His people. The number three tells us about Him. It is a holy number that rela...

As we think about this special relationship with God, we should remember our heavenly Father is not human (Numbers 23:19). “God is spirit” says John 4:24. Yet because God is Spirit, this can make Him ...

We humans cannot do anything with complete purity because our sinful hearts lead us into areas of vast sin, and there is only one way they can be fixed: Jesus Christ. He is the only way toward a pure ...

Some may view covenant like a contract, where you both sign on the dotted line and get your rewards for doing your part. However, a covenant in God’s mindset is more than just each party doing h...

The story of Zerubbabel, Ezra, and Nehemiah follows a pattern. They begin with the call to rebuild, then opposition, then a fulfillment — or maybe better a “thud” of a fulfillment. ...

The story is primarily understood to describe the various effects of the gospel message of salvation that Jesus was teaching. But I believe there is additional wisdom to be gained by those of us who h...

One of the great theological battles is whether we as humans have free will over our salvation, or if it is all dependent upon God's sovereignty. There are various schools of thought and both have str...

God's love is not like the love expressed by many in our culture today: a love of convenience and ego. God's unconditional love never fails, endures forever, is uncalculating, and not motivated by pe...

Sometimes we will hear people describe the Kingdom of God as being "now and not yet." Aren't those opposites though? How can we be experiencing something now, but also not yet? To answer this, let's t...
