The living One among the dead
As we near Easter, what greater thing has man to be interested in than that of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. No one has ever raised himself from the dead, save Jesus Christ. He promised He would do it, (John 2:19). Many then, will not have understood exactly what He said, put yourself in their place. Jesus said many things that were deep. But i…
Another Reason to Rejoice
What more pleasant ways come our way that we can take time to rejoice in. It seems like those are the best times in life. And these times of rejoicing seem to far outnumber the times of sorrow. We know by His Word that as Christians we will have many afflictions, and sometimes rejoicing will be far from our hearts, minds, and spirit. …
The Second Birth
Two births, each believer in Christ has two. Most remember the date of the first, some not so of the second. Though that does not minimize the remembrance of it. One was a physical birth which we have not accomplished on our own, and the second we can claim no merit for either. The first birth is physical, the second birth is spiritual. In the Gosp…
Our God is a Keeping God
As one of God's attributes is omnipotence, He is all-powerful, we can be sure nothing can overcome Him. He is infinite in all His attributes, abundant in all He does. He is in a class all by Himself, the only One of His kind. “I am God and there is no other, I am God and there is none like Me.” (Isa.46:9) As we go about our pilgrimage a…
We Need A Physician
Have you been to a Physician lately? When do you go to a Physician? And why do you go to a Physician? Physicians diagnose problems and prescribe treatments. If we know something is wrong with us, we can go to them, and they will figure out what might be wrong. They have lots of neat machines and high-tech gadgets to help with the prognosis. There i…
Setting The Lord Before Us
As the New Year begins to roll on, can we imagine making it through 366 days on our own? Will we need anyone's guidance, lean on anyone’s strength, depend on anyone's help? We need all the help we can get! It's a long year, the days may go slowly by, but the Scriptures state that we should make the most of our time. (Eph.5:15) Paul says there…
Beginning and Ending the Year with the Word
Another year has just about come to an end, the curtain has closed on yet another 365-day span in our lives. Maybe the year has brought plenty of good times, maybe plenty of difficult times, and maybe somewhere between the two; but one thing we can be thankful for looking back is how God has sustained us through thick and t…
Incarnation: Good News of Great Joy
They call it the most wonderful time of the year. Why is that? There must be something that makes it so. Is it the giving and receiving of presents? Is it the visiting and traveling to see family? Is it all the wonderful lights and decorations that greet us along the way? Well, whatever was the reason for calling it the most wonderful time of year,…
God's Precepts

Expiation
Expiation is a word we do not use often or seldom hear of. Thus, it is probably a word or action we do not know much about. In the New American Standard Bible, it is used only one time and that is in Numbers 35:33,"So you shall not pollute the land in which you are, for blood pollutes the land and no EXPIATION can be made for the land for the blood…
