Seven billion who need to be kept happy, and docile, until the end. How do you do that? What’s the best way to calm down a scared kid, get them to go back to sleep?...

take the land” …is not a call to a new political, cultural or geographical dominance. It is Kingdom of God territory. It is the will of the Eternal God being done on earth, as it...

The great truth of the Incarnation is that the Son of God became flesh and dwelt among us. In this foundational truth we may emphasize the nature of the Son of Man himself, or we...

Do we always do the things that God would take pleasure, or that we do things we think God would take pleasure.

It’s so much more than a child’s story. – Matt Chandler on LIFE Today.

Jesus was a suicide, if you ask me.

There were dozens of people who walked through the Holy Land claiming to be the Messiah, curing the sick, exorcising demons, challenging Rome, gathering followers. In a way, there’s nothing unique about what Jesus did....

And when Jesus declared, ‘It is finished,’ He meant it. God’s punishment for our sin was paid for, permanently settled, finished— 100 percent. If you have responded in faith to God’s free pardon through Jesus,...

timing is everything” is never more true than in your walk with God—HIS timing is everything.

As I read the Gospels, I never saw a time when Jesus was a doormat. Jesus found a perfect balance, and for me it has been an ongoing search to find the line to walk...

I like Pixie Sticks. Yeah, screw the middle man. Just a tube of sugar… I’d pour two of those in a big 12 ounce coke. And I’d go out to catechism class and try to...

Jesus says, “Here’s the deal! I’ll leave My place. I’ll come to your place. I’ll take your place. And then we’ll go to My place.

If your salvation was dependent on your ability to read and understand scripture, Jesus would have been an author.

Jesus didn’t die to save me from God. Jesus died to save me from myself.

God is infinitely beautiful in himself, and his beauty ought to attract you like a magnet to him.

But at some point it becomes obvious that, ultimately, the adventure of faith is the most sensible thing to do, and in fact the only thing worth doing. As Sam says toward the end of...

I want to remind pastors and leaders that we do not own the church—God does. We aren’t called to serve the church from a place of fear with our primary focus on protecting our boundaries....

The God of Romans 9–11 finds ways to show mercy, even when the facts clamor for judgment. This doesn’t sound much like Calvinism to me, but it does sound a whole lot like Jesus.

I have heard some people complain that if Jesus was God as well as man, then His suffering and death lose all value in their eyes, ‘because it must have been so easy for him.’...

People love to quote that Jesus is love, yet they neglect to mention that He’s also King. If you love the King, you will obey Him.

Never think you can convince God through prayer for a blessing. Praying for prosperity is a wrong weapon for war. If prayer could bring money, all intercessors would be billionaires.

A struggle is a preparation for what is yet to come.-Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes

But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

The saved sinner is prostrate in adoration, lost in wonder and praise. He knows repentance is not what we do in order to earn forgiveness; it is what we do because we have been forgiven....

Life is defined by the lives you touch, and not by the mistakes you’ve made.

Jesus must have had man hands. He was a carpenter, the Bible tells us. I know a few carpenters, and they have great hands, all muscled and worn, with nicks and callused pads from working...

I would be dreadfully remiss not to think that God would painstakingly craft something an intimately ingenious and inexplicably intricate as my life, and that by virtue of such sheer brilliance I should not examine...

I think I have a very good idea why it is that anti-Semitism is so tenacious and so protean and so enduring. Christianity and Islam, theistic though they may claim to be, are both based...

The messengers of Jesus will be hated to the end of time. They will be blamed for all the division which rend cities and homes. Jesus and his disciples will be condemned on all sides...

The first miracle Jesus performed was instant winemaking. No wonder people loved Him! He probably received a bunch of wedding invitations after that one.

I tried talking to Jesus, but he just put me on hold…

When we worship, we ascend, when we ascend we gain revelation from God.

God is not a God of confusion, although at times one’s judgment, for a period, may become clouded in the growth process. I stopped fooling myself into thinking that Christ is always for the cool...

When you are happy for other people’s dreams, your dreams start jumping up with joy. Elizabeth was happy with Mary and her dream baby was jumping in her womb crazily for joy!

Christian scholars often say that Sufi theories are close to those of Christianity. Many Moslems maintain that they are essentially derived from Islam. The resemblance of many Sufi ideas to those of several religious and...

For nearly 2,000 years, most people assumed that the only sources of tradition about Jesus and his disciples were the four gospels in the New Testament.

Jesus, the Blessed Child of God, is merciful. Showing mercy is different from having pity. Pity connotes distance, even looking down upon. When a beggar asks for money and you give him something out of...

I am not moved by what I see.; I am moved by what I believe. What I do believe is greater, stronger and mightier than what I have my eyes on. Deep in my heart...

God stipulates in the Bible that Jesus Followers are to love and serve everyone regardless of their faith or lack of it. But, this does not require us to honour and respect their Biblically-heinous cultural...

If Jesus is not your Lord, then Satan is.

Jack didn’t fully get Jesus. Audrey tried to explain it, and he could repeat it back to her, word for word, but he still didn’t comprehend most of it. The best he could gather was...

Only the redeeming, all-powerful, transforming grace of God can raise our sin-besotted heart from the dead, give us eternal life, and set our gaze on Jesus, our blessed hope.

The gospel has done its work in us when we crave God more than we crave everything else in life and when seeing His kingdom advance in the lives of others gives us more joy...

As a spiritual leader, you are here to serve; not to be served. Stop robbing the poor. Jesus came to serve.

In Jesus Christ there is no isolation of man from God or of God from man. Rather, in Him we encounter the history, the dialogue, in which God and man meet together and are together,...

For to speak the truth, there are but few that care thus to spend their time, but choose rather to be speaking of things to no profit.

Jesus offers undeserved love, a love we don’t deserve and can therefore never lose.

Naturally all of us don’t think we deserve very much. We don’t believe that things will go well for us in the future, generally because they may not have in the past. Our natural bent...

Gold was a gift to Jesus. If it’s good enough for Jesus, it’s good enough for me!

Jesus has entrusted His message of salvation to His followers. Faithfully share the message!
