Baptism in the Holy Spirit: Daily Devo, John 1:29-34
When I read this passage at face-value, it seems as though John the Baptizer does not know his cousin is the messiah until the Holy Spirit descends in this moment. This was not a premeditated rouse to capture followers for a new religion or cult. Jesus didn’t tell John. John was prepared to testify to…

I’m No Prophet or Messiah: Daily Devo, John 1:19-34
John the Baptizer begins his public ministry, comprising mostly preaching Old Testament messianic passages and baptizing Jews who come to him. Some leading Jews come out from Jerusalem to question John, but John was not trying to be the next public teaching figure. Unlike others, he was not claiming to be the literal resurrection of…

No One Can See God at Any Time: Daily Devo, John 1:14-18
The Word, Jesus, became flesh. I don’t understand this to mean that the divine transformed into flesh but rather assumed human flesh, such that the human flesh and nature was added to the divine nature without losing the divine nature in any degree or respect. In this incarnation, we were finally able to behold God—full…

Children of God, Born of God and Not The Will of Men: Daily Devo, John 1:6-13
Here, John the Apostle tells us about John the Baptizer. The Baptizer was sent from God to bear witness to the light in fulfillment of Malachi 4:5-6. John the Baptizer told the world that life had finally come into the world as has been promised repetitively since Genesis 3. At this moment, John the Apostle…

Life is the Light of Men, and DArkness Will Not Overcome Life: Daily Devo, John 1:1-5
As I reflect on John’s introduction, I find it interesting to see that the light is not Christ Himself in this instance. Life is the light of men. The Word of God, who is God and is with God in the beginning, is the one in whom life is—from the beginning, not merely from the…

Fighting the Good Fight in Transitional Seasons: Notes from 1 Timothy 1:15-20
Love from a pure heart, good conscience, and sincere faith is the most important thing churches in transition should remember (1:3-7). Paul also warns about immoral men sneaking in and turning the churches toward fruitlessness and sin (1:8-11). At the end of his first chapter, Paul uses himself as an example—not because he is qualified…

Ministry Kills Homes: Wisdom From Proverbs 31 About the Priority of Our Household Responsibilities
Solomon advised his sons to look for a wife who is compassionate. Compassion equals unconditional love. A compassionate woman gives of herself and makes a relationship stronger. People can be careless in their compassion, neglecting responsibilities in order to serve those in need. Often, well-meaning and tenderhearted people give so much of themselves to others…

The Profitable Woman Against the Yokes of Welfare and Dependency: Wisdom from Proverbs 31
Proverbs 31 is not a note Solomon wrote telling women exactly what they need to do to be godly. Instead, it is a note from Solomon to His sons about what to look for in a woman. So far, everything we have read elevates women and is countercultural even in our own day. When worldly…

Generous Servant or High-Maintenance Miser: The Excellent Wife in Proverbs 31
I think Proverbs 31 is too often misunderstood or misappropriated to tell women exactly what they should be if they want to be godly. We know that Solomon is writing to his sons about what he advises them to look for in a potential wife. This isn’t for all women. It concerns excellent wives. Further,…

Sips of Wisdom: Bathsheba’s Teaching on the Subject of Alcohol Consumption for Her Grandchildren in Proverbs 31:4-7
We remember that Proverbs is not a book about the Law. If we don’t take Solomon’s advice, we are not “in sin.” Solomon wants to share his wisdom with his children to show them that there is a good path and a path that leads to destruction in life. In the previous section, we learned…
