  • Armageddon: The Iranian Conflict and End Times

    Armageddon: The Iranian Conflict and End Times

    Well. I finally saw the word used in association with events currently at play in the Middle East. In her post, Coston claimed that, in the last battle, the nations wouldn’t necessarily fight against Israel but against Christ. I have to say, I have never actually seen such a narrative in the text of Scripture.…

    Church is About True Family, Not Performances

    Hebrews 10 24 and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, 25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near. Stimulate one another The author of Hebrews gives us a…

  • Instructions for Women During Times of Transition: Continuing Paul’s Humility Discourse in 1 Timothy

    Instructions for Women During Times of Transition: Continuing Paul’s Humility Discourse in 1 Timothy

    Men have a tendency to feel a pressing need to get things done. So, Paul reminded them to be quiet and pray. Women are notably different than men, not only physiologically but psychologically. So, Paul treats them differently in 1 Timothy than he does the men. Likewise, I want women to adorn themselves with proper…

  • Fighting the Good Fight in Transitional Seasons: Notes from 1 Timothy 1:15-20

    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…

  • The Eucharist According to Matthew

    The Eucharist According to Matthew

    It is the eve of Christ’s betrayal into the hands of Israel’s chief priests and elders. From the beginning of His public preaching ministry, Jesus has been teaching that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. At the end of Matthew’s Gospel, Jesus declares that the kingdom is here. Since Matthew is the most Jewish…

  • The Abomination of Desolation

    The Abomination of Desolation

    Jesus’s disciples have asked when the end of the Temple will come, when will not one stone be left upon another? When will Christ judge Jerusalem? Jesus has already made it clear that the judgment upon Jerusalem will happen within their lifetimes (Matthew 23:36). He will repeat His timeframe in Matthew 24:34. He is revealing…

  • Daily Devotional: Ephesians 4:25-32

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 4:25-32

    Therefore, since we put on a new self in Christ and reject our natural entitled and self-absorbed ways, we lay aside falsehood and speak the truth to one another. The practice of falsehood is a selfish practice. We lie because we don’t want to be found out. We pretend to be righteous because we want…

  • Daily Devotional: Ephesians 4:17-24

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 4:17-24

    God provides His Spirit and gifts each believer. Each believer is trained for ministry in the context of a local church. So, we no longer walk like the Gentiles, or like unbelievers. Unbelievers walk in the futility of their minds, being darkened in their understanding, and are excluded from the life of God because of…
