J U L Y 2 7 “These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with all eagerness, daily examining the Scriptures, to find out if these things were so.” — Acts 7:11

The Scripture is the final authority in all religious controversies. It is to the Word of God, the oracles of God, not to men, that we are to turn. Down through the centuries people have said, “Well, the minister said this or the priest said that or the church has said this or the Rabbi declares this.” But the Scriptures declare it is only in the Bible that we have the infallible Word of God. I charge you not to take what I say... More

J U L Y 2 6 “Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said, ‘Let us go up at once and possess it, for we are able to overcome it.’” — Numbers 13:3

The Eyes of Faith vs. Unbelief

Joshua and Caleb were among the twelve spies who Moses sent into the Promised Land. But sadly, he and Caleb were outvoted by the other ten who said it was a great land, but it was filled with giants. Nonetheless, Joshua and Caleb said we are more than able to possess it. “Let us go up at once and take it,” they said. They were not men that were filled with fear, timidity, or defeatism. They were positive, they were strong, they... More

J U L Y 2 5 “Brothers, I do not count myself to have attained, but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead…” — Philippians 3:13

This One Thing I Do

Why is it that some people succeed in life while others fail? Is it heredity, environment, luck, circumstances, parentage, money or education? I am sure those factors have contributed toward the success of some, and yet history is replete with examples of individuals who had none of those advantages, and yet they succeeded magnificently. Why? Since life is fleeting, we should ask ourselves these questions. We should take spiritual inventory... More

J U L Y 2 4 “Then I looked. And there was a great multitude which no one could count, from all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands.” — Revelation 7:9

Are We Winning or Losing?

When Jesus died and rose from the dead, there were some 120 believers who gathered in an upper room to pray, at His command. No one even took note of their existence. Then Peter preached a sermon, and 3,000 believed. Shortly thereafter, 5,000 more were added to the number, followed by a great multitude of Jews and priests. Next came a time of persecution and when it ended in 313 A.D. with the Edict of Toleration, there were about 10 million... More

J U L Y 2 3 “…until we all come into…the knowledge of the Son of God, into a complete man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ…” — Ephesians 4:13

Growing in Christ

Sanctification is just a technical term coming from the Latin that means spiritual growth—that God did not birth us to be merely babies. We are to grow and become little children and older children and then mature adults. We are the army of Jesus Christ. We sing, “Onward Christian Soldiers,” but can you imagine a kindergarten full of little children putting their toy rifles on their shoulders and marching off to war... More

J U L Y 2 2 “…and My name is continually blasphemed all day long.” — Isaiah 52:5

Blaspheming the Name of Christ

We live in an age that is awash with blasphemy. It is grievous to hear the name of Jesus Christ taken in vain, spoken of blasphemously. Why would anyone speak that name in blasphemy? It is the only sin without any motivation other than the pure demonic hatred of the fallen heart of man against God. Why? What more could He do than for you He has done? God says in the Ten Commandments that He will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in... More

J U L Y 2 1 “The Lord said, ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.’” — Acts 9:5

Anti-Christian Persecution

How did Saul of Tarsus get changed? He was a religious zealot, persecuting the church wherever he could find it. He was committed to its destruction because he thought God wanted him to do this. One day, as Saul approached Damascus, we are told in the ninth chapter of Acts, suddenly there was a light that shone upon him from heaven as if God turned on a great spotlight with a brilliant, dazzling whiteness that so struck him that he fell to...
