The Bible speaks of reverence for God in terms of godly fear. To fear God is to give Him the respect that He deserves which is a part of having reverence for God. Ecclesiastes 12:13 (KJV) 13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is […]
How we dress makes a statement about ourselves, especially today. Immodest apparel has become the norm. People of all ages dress immodestly. When we as Christians cover ourselves properly, we stand out. This is the way it should be, not to be personally praised, but to glorify God. That is the purpose of letting our […]
To show reverence to God is to give Him the honor and respect He deserves. It comes from having a profound adoring and awe in our hearts for Him, stemming from our realization of His unmatchable power, strength, and majesty. Knowing that God created us, along with the massive universe that we still cannot completely […]
In a world where everything is constantly changing, there is great comfort in knowing that some things will never change. The last one of those things that we want to consider this week is our heavenly hope. One of the most comforting things we have as Christians is our hope in Christ. We should be […]
The universal church never changes from the standpoint of what and who it is. It is made up of all the saved, and the saved are those who obey the gospel of Christ by believing (Mark 16:16), repenting (Acts 3:19), confessing (Romans 10:9, 10), and being baptized into Christ (Acts 2:38; Galatians 3:27).

While the gospel is the greatest message the world has ever heard, it might be the message most tampered with as well. Man has always attempted to change it. Galatians 1:6-7 (ESV) 6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to […]
In a world where things that we have been familiar with have drastically changed, some things are still the same. Our Lord is one of those things. What are some things about Jesus that will never change? His character is one of those things. He has always been a loving, patient, kind, and merciful person […]
We live in a world that is constantly changing. What is “in” today will be “out” tomorrow. What is presently viewed as right will soon be considered wrong. This is just the way the world is. Everything around us seems to be changing. There is great comfort in things that never change. This week, let’s […]
Spiritually speaking, are you walking toward heaven or away from heaven? Some would answer that question by simply saying, “I don’t know.” However, we should all know where we are heading spiritually. Do you go outside and just start walking without any idea of where you are heading? Not too many people walk aimlessly without […]
Regardless of what we do in life, how hard we serve God, or how many good works we amass, we cannot earn our way to heaven. If there is something that we can all agree on, it is this—“we are saved by grace.” As a result of this fact, we have no right to boast […]
