June 2 ‘I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt…’ — Exodus 20:2

How To Interpret The Ten Commandments

In the next few days, we’ll take a close look at each of the Ten Commandments. But before delving into each one, let me make a few general observations that should help you better understand all of them. First, each commandment contains both a negative action and a positive action for us to obey. For example, when a commandment forbids murder, it inherently commands us to sustain life. When it forbids adultery, it commands purity. When... More

June 1 Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. — 1 John 2:3

The Ten Commandments Today

In numerous classes, to hundreds of people, I have posed this question: “Can anyone tell me any one single thing any person can do that would please God other than obey His law?” What would you say? It’s a tough question, and so far, no one in my classes has come up with an answer. Some have said, “Well, we could love God,” and to do so would be to obey what Jesus said was the first and greatest commandment:... More

May 31 ‘And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.’ — Matthew 1:21

The Name Above Every Name

Many people are given exalted names but never live up to them. Charles Spurgeon tells about wandering in a cemetery and seeing a headstone inscribed with these words: “Sacred to the memory of Methuselah Coney. Age, six months.” (Recall that the biblical Methuselah lived more than nine hundred years!) The most important name the world has ever heard is the name of Jesus, and Jesus lived up to everything that name foretold. To... More

May 30 ‘…the ones that fell among thorns are those who, when they have heard, go out and are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life…’ — Luke 8:14

The Cares Of The World And The Deceitfulness Of Wealth

Yesterday we considered two kinds of “hearers” of God’s Word: the wayside hearers and the rocky-soil hearers. Both had hardened their hearts, refusing to allow the Word to penetrate and change their lives. Today we’re going to discuss the third kind of hearer that Jesus spoke of in the parable of the sower: the thorny-soil hearer. The farmer cast the seed everywhere, and some of the seed fell on thorny soil. Although... More

May 29 ...Behold, a sower went out to sow. — Matthew 13:3

The Parable Of The Sower

Why do some people fall away from the faith and others continue to the end? A person’s spiritual staying power depends on his or her inclination upon hearing God’s Word. Jesus explained this in detail by telling the parable of the sower. In this parable a farmer sows seeds on four kinds of soil; three were bad, and one was good. Each type of soil represents a way that people might hear God’s Word. Today let’s consider... More

May 28 …the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. — 2 Corinthians 1:3-4, NIV

Sorrow And Sympathy

The problem of suffering, or as C. S. Lewis called it, “the problem of pain” has troubled believers for centuries. In fact, an entire book of the Bible—Job—addresses the issue of enduring pain and sorrow. Why does God allow us to go through heartbreaking times of tribulation? Have you ever asked that question? Have you ever cried in despair to God, desperately asking, “Why?” Maybe you’re experiencing... More

May 27 ‘Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.’ — Acts 4:12

The Uniqueness Of Christ

Have you ever had an unbeliever tell you that all religions are the same and that one is just as good—or bad—as the other? Many non-Christians seem to believe this. But the truth is that while many religions exist, only one gospel prevails. While many teachers have gained followings, only one Teacher—Jesus Christ—has saved us. Christ is the solitary and unique Savior of the world. He is unique, first of all, because,... More
