O C T O B E R 1 7 “Yet man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upward.” — Job 5:7

When Trouble Comes

“You’re in trouble.” If you’re a living, breathing human being (and if you can read this, I assume you are), those words apply to you. We don’t like this fact of life, but we just can’t escape trouble. Because we live in a sinful world, we can expect it. But though we can’t avoid trouble, we can determine how we’ll handle it. In fact, our lives are shaped, to a large extent, by how we deal with... More

O C T O B E R 1 6 “And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.” — John 17:3

How Can We Know God?

Do you yearn to know God? Do you long for a special relationship with the Father, the intimate knowing that comes from interacting with Him as His child? The stronger we grow as Christians, the closer we grow to God. As the New Testament says, we “grow in grace, and the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” But how do we get to know God better? First, we spend time with Him. Every relationship grows with time and... More

O C T O B E R 1 5 “And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.” — Genesis 22:10

Trials

Call to mind the biggest trial you’ve ever faced (you might face it even today). Remember the struggle, the pain, the despair? Does it help to know that through your trials God tests and perfects your faith? Consider Abraham trudging his way toward Mount Moriah to offer his son Isaac as a sacrifice to God. From Abraham’s trial and faithful response we gain great blessing, a treasure-trove of lessons, to give us insight into what... More

O C T O B E R 1 4 “Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ … for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.” — Galatians 2:16

Justification

Most people don’t get it. The darkness of spiritual ignorance has pervaded people’s minds, leaving vast numbers abjectly ignorant of this central doctrine of Christianity. What am I talking about? The doctrine of justification by faith—the fact that we can have eternal life because Christ’s death has cleansed us of all sin, making us worthy to live in God’s presence. Do you understand justification by faith?... More

O C T O B E R 1 3 “For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light.” — Ephesians 5:8

The Old Lamplighter

Have you ever visited a historical village where a lamplighter lights the street lamps at night? If you have, then you can relate to what Sir Henry Lauder, a famous Scotsman of the turn of the century, saw as he watched a lamplighter one evening at the Hotel Cecil: “I was sitting in the gloaming [dusk], and a man passed the window. He was the lamplighter. He pushed his pole into the lamp and lighted it. Then he went to another and... More

O C T O B E R 1 2 “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations …” — Matthew 24:14

Was Columbus A Christian?

This month marks the annual remembrance of Christopher Columbus’ discovery of the New World. Columbus was a brave and farsighted leader whose monumental discovery changed the world. But our society often questions Columbus’ character. We know he was a man of flesh and blood, a sinner as we all are. And we know he made mistakes. Yet we can’t hold him responsible for all the things modern critics would like to blame him for.... More

O C T O B E R 1 1 “Give unto the Lord the glory due to His name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.” — Psalm 29:2

The Beauty Of Holiness

What do you expect when you go to church on Sunday mornings? Do you view Sunday morning church as a type of performance? Many people do. They listen to the choir as if they were at a concert, ready to critique the choir’s performance. They sing hymns but never once as they sing do they ever think of praising God. Instead, they sing hymns by rote, with their minds turned off. But God doesn’t want us to sit back as passive... More
