Bible Origin of Islam
Ever wonder why Bin Laden wants to pick a fight with America? Let's see what the Bible has to say on the issue.
The Cities of Refuge are Types of the Lord Jesus Christ
What the cities of refuge were to Israel, sheltering the sinner from judgment, the Lord Jesus Christ is to us.
Eternal Joy With Him
Felix Mantz was also an originator of the Reformation of the faith, in Germany, and when he, with great zeal, practiced, taught, and preached, the recognized truth of the gospel, he was envied, accused, and imprisoned by his adversaries, and finally drowned at Zurich, for the evangelical truth, thus becoming a witness of the sufferings of Christ. This occurred in the year of our Lord 1526.
Crossing the Line With God
In this passage we find that Moses has crossed a line with God and will not be able to go into the promised land. What can we learn from Moses' mistake that we might not make the same mistakes.
The Dayspring From On High
The dayspring is the spring of the day; that is, the morning. This passage reveals some of the scientific details about this phenomenon. However, the dayspring is also a type of Jesus Christ, as revealed in the only other place in the Bible where the word occurs – Luke 1:78.
Death in the Pot
God is always providing for His children. Satan exhausts himself poisoning what God has provided. What can we learn from this passage about how to protect what God has given us?
Looking for a City
As this earth fades more and more from the desires of our heart, we begin to look forward and upward for a city to come. Are you going to that city? Are you prepared to go if the Lord was to call?
Exalting Not Ourselves
The haughty will be humbled by God. The humble will be honoured by God. As Christians, we are to humble ourselves before the Lord so that He may exalt us in His timing.
Except the Lord Build the House
This verse deals with building and battling (“keep the city”). These two actions describe much of our life and they certainly describe the Christian life.
Failures in Fellowship
Historically, the word fellow means to lay money; as to lay money down. A fellow was one who financially supported a business deal with someone else; a business partner. Fellowship then is to be united together in covenant for a common purpose.
