Canonization of the New Testament
How did we get the New Testament that we have today? What process was used in its canonization? And who decided what to include?
Living As Enemies of the Cross of Christ – Philippians 3:17-21
It is sad that many who call themselves Christians actually live as enemies of the cross of Christ, failing to honor him with their lives.
A Light Shining In the Darkness – Matthew 4:16
Honor Christ today as Lord and God! Let the light of Christ shine out into the darkness that is enveloping our world, bearing witness to his love.
The Reliability of the New Testament Texts
Can we have any assurance in the reliability of the New Testament texts. That what we have today is the same as what was written 2000 years ago?
The Cross: A Demonstration of Love – Romans 5:8
There are several reasons for the cross. But primary among them is that it is a demonstration of love, good in any language.
Fight the Good Fight, With Love! – 1 Corinthians 16:13-14
As believers in the Lord Jesus, we are engaged in a fight for the hearts and souls of men. But we need to be careful to do so with love.
Understanding God’s Purpose in Creation
Does God have a purpose for his creation? I believe he does. I believe he is preparing a people who will serve him throughout the remainder of eternity.
Obedience That Comes From Faith – Romans 1:5
Some form of obedience is required from us in nearly everything we do. But obedience that comes from faith is different. It should be a joy.
Why the Christian God?
Why should a person believe in the God of Christianity rather than some other god? Only the indwelling Holy Spirit can give that assurance.
Who Should We Follow? – Acts 4:19-20
We are often faced with a choice of who we should follow. God. Or the crowds around us. When they are in conflict, always follow the Lord.
