Psalm:103 Meditation: 1 CorWhat is your faith in Christ based on? Is this discussion as pertinent today when some modern religions refer to Jesus as a man of Nazareth? Similar to arguments that Paul made when arrested in Jerusalem, Paul says the resurrection of the dead is pivotal to the truth of Christianity.  While Paul …

Psalm: 95 Meditation: 1 CorThis passage leads into one of the most quoted and misused passages in scripture. While Paul seems to be correcting views about the hierarchy of God’s gifts and their purpose, Paul instead is showing the need for love in the exercise of gifts and how they work together for the building …

Psalm: 37:1-18 Meditation: RevIt is unusual to look at multiple churches at the same time. Here we see a faithful church contrasted with one that has been compromised by the influence of men and the world. The message is: if your beliefs and actions are right, by God’s standards, hold fast no matter what tests …

Psalm: 131 Meditation: 1 CorHow can you tell if you or someone else belongs to Jesus? Paul talks about different spiritual gifts that were evident in the church. What is the purpose of those gifts and what is the value and importance of each gift? Who or what benefits from those gifts? Is there any …

Psalm: 106:1-18 Meditation: 1 CorIdolatry in Paul’s time drove the economics of some cities and societies. It also impacted lives and relationships in ways that would seem strange today. While the Bible and Paul state that idols are nothing, superstition affected the way people saw idols and how they related to people and products. Paul …

Psalm: 109 Meditation: ActsThis passage shows the important roles that are needed to operate a church, and the problems that arise when a few are trying to do too much. Later, in the books of Timothy and Titus we learn more about Elders and Deacons, but the whole book of Acts is really a history …

Psalm: 71 Meditation: MarkDuring Jesus’s ministry and the history of the church there are always those that add their own spin or requirements to what God requires of us. While modern science has shown us the advantages of sanitation, diet, and health, Jesus points out that it is the ‘why’ or the ‘heart’ of the …

Psalm: 61, 62 Meditation: ActsIt is important to note the role of the Holy Spirit in both where Paul and his companions were traveling and also in preparing the hearts of those that would respond to God’s call. Lydia is singled out for mention as a believer in God and both her business and her …

Psalm: 25 Meditation: ActsThe persecution of the Early church had driven many Christians out of the Holy Land, as far north as the Roman Territories in modern day Turkey. At first they shared the Good News of the Lord with Jews only, but eventually the Good News spread to the Helenists (gentiles). A large number …

Psalm: 88 Meditation: ActsIt is amazing that the Church grew to almost 30 times its original size in one day. On that day, Peter said that the promise was to “you and your children, all who were afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.” Even more amazingly, this group of people …
