  • upholding all things by the word of his power” [Hebrews 1:3]

    <b>"upholding all things by the word of his power".</b>  Those who do not know the Lord do not believe His word and cannot appreciate how mighty a word it is. He speaks and it is done, whether the creation of the universe or the stilling of a turbulent sea on which the disciples journeyed. His ... Read more

  • “lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven” [Matthew 6:20]

    <b>"lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven".</b>  The financial world is continually bombarding us with details both of interest rates and where we may expect a greater return on our money. And most of us spend an inordinately large amount of our time earning or spending money. The Bible gives the last word on advice ... Read more

  • “HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD” [Zechariah 14:20]

    <b>"Holiness Unto The Lord".</b>  As a doctrine, holiness has become obscured in the present climate: as a way of life it has practically disappeared. Past generations may have collected dead wood, but in trying to be rid of it, to say that the Christian may do whatever is standard behaviour in the world, is not ... Read more

  • “speak evil of no man” [Titus 3:2]

    <b>"speak evil of no man".</b> There is something good in all the brethren. They may not think or do just as you do but it is as likely that you are mistaken on some things as they are. Any fool can stir the mud but it is those who seek the best out of others ... Read more

  • “Come and hear” [Psalm 66:16]

    <b>"Come and hear".</b>  God expects some movement on the part of the sinner. The redeemed ones may set out their case attractively but it is of no use if folk do not come. The call of the gospel message is centred around this activity. Whether far away or near, the direction is the same - ... Read more

  • “they had argued about who was the greatest” [Mark 9:34(NIV)]

    <b>"they had argued about who was the greatest".</b>  It was an argument among themselves - Jesus had to ask His disciples what it was they were arguing about. We might easily be disappointed with them for indulging in such petty behaviour - as though to be among the chosen twelve was not enough, each wanted ... Read more

  • “my people have forgotten me” [Jeremiah 18:15(NIV)]

    <b>"my people have forgotten me".</b>  The People of Israel repeatedly turned away from the Lord. The same easily happens when God blesses and it may easily happen to us. As we read elsewhere "Let him that stands take heed, lest he fall!" God's blessings can make us complacent so we forsake the worship and service ... Read more

  • “and they received the Holy Spirit” [Acts 8:17(RAV)]

    <b>"and they received the Holy Spirit". </b> It was not enough for the new believers in Samaria to receive the Word of God brought to them by Philip the Evangelist. Not enough for them to feel and be happy. All should be happy when they experience sin forgiven and peace with God. They needed the ... Read more
