The church has been fitly joined to accomplish God’s will in this world. This is confirmed in Scripture. Ephesians 4:16 says, "From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love." God has provided each individual with unique gifts that they might contribute to the work of their local church to meet the needs of the...

Many Bible students believe that Timothy was only 16 years old when he left home to follow the Apostle Paul in the work of church planting. It's hard to believe that someone so young would commit to something so big. What kind of mindset would be required for such a young man to make such an important decision? Can you imagine the fears that he and his parents had to overcome to get to that place? What did Timothy have to risk in order to see God use him in such a mighty way? We have become...

Since the beginning of the church, Bible believers have discussed the return of Christ. The Apostle Paul admonishes the church in Rome to prepare for the return of Christ in Romans 13:11, “And that, knowing the time, that now [it is] high time to awake out of sleep: for now [is] our salvation nearer than when we believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.” And yet, despite Paul’s appeal to...

Throughout the Old Testament, we find holy men and women who committed themselves to the work of prayer and fasting. People like Moses, King David, Ahab, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, and the Jewish people. Fasting was employed as they sought forgiveness from egregious sins that they'd committed or when loved ones needed restoration for health issues, when people needed protection from danger or needed protection from their enemies. Fasting is not just a phenomenon of the Old Testament....

In our modern world, technology evolves so rapidly that we often don’t even take notice anymore. Technology is so integrated into our daily lives that it’s rare for us to take notice of it and even harder to be knowledgeable and circumspect about all the ways in which our lives are affected by the subtleties of these advancements. As Bible believing Christians, we should be asking the hard questions about how technology is impacting our families, our ministry and our outlook on the world.
