SUNDAY STUDY: Acquaintance with Grief
By Oswald Chambers @utmost.org
He is…a Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. Isaiah 53:3
We are not “acquainted with grief” in the same way our Lord was acquainted with it. We endure it and live through it, but we do not become intimate with it. At the beginning of our lives we do not bring ourselves to the point of dealing with the reality of sin. We look at life through the eyes of reason…
SUNDAY STUDY: Created
From Henry M. Morris @ICR.org
“…even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.” (Isaiah 43:7)
There are three main verbs used to describe God’s work of creation in Genesis. These are “create” (Hebrew bara), “make” (asah), and “form” (yatsar). The three words are similar in meaning, but each has a slightly different emphasi…
SUNDAY STUDY: God, Our Father
“one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all” Ephesians 4:6
By Ken Ham @ answersingenesis.org
One of my favorite passages in the Bible is in Joshua 4, where we read the account of the Israelites miraculously crossing the Jordan River. God told Joshua to get the people to have 12 men gather 12 stones from the river and build a memorial so that:
When your children a…
SUNDAY STUDY: Righteous Boldness
BY HENRY M. MORRIS III, D.MIN.@ICR.org
“The righteous are bold as a lion.” (Proverbs 28:1)
A holy boldness is imparted to those who seek to speak the truth of God (Acts 4:31). The miracle of the Pentecost outpouring of the Holy Spirit was followed by several incidents where the various apostles and early Christian leaders spoke “boldly in the Lord” (Acts 14:3). Where does this boldness come from…
SUNDAY STUDY: The Veil over the Nations
“And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the veil that is spread over all nations.” (Isaiah 25:7)
Many people feel that every nation should be encouraged simply to practice its own religion. God’s Word, however, makes it plain that all nations are blinded, cut off from the truth by a deadly covering. This is true of the Jews, for “even unto this day…
SUNDAY STUDY: Our Kinsman Redeemer
A pardon allows a person who has been convicted of a crime to be free and absolved of that conviction, demonstrating that their debt to society has been paid.
Excerpted from Clarence Larkin’s “Dispensational Truth”
Kinsman Redeemer: (Hebrew Go’el) to redeem a relative who had been sold into slavery; to avenge the killing of a relative
The Requirements of the Go’el
Must be a near relative or kins…
SUNDAY STUDY: Everywhere Present at One Time
By John R. Cross, The Stranger on the Road to Emmaus, Edition 5
Not all the attributes of God are equally comprehensible. Somehow it’s easier for us to envision God being all-powerful and all-knowing than to see Him being present in all places at the same time. But over and over again, the Scripture teaches us that God is everywhere-present.
When you stop and ponder the idea, it really is comfort…
SUNDAY STUDY: Happy Mother’s Day
Excerpted from a sermon by John MacArthur www.gracetoyou.org
In memory of an exemplary mother and grandmother, beloved by all her children, Bibi: 11/11/1922 – 05/11/2017
ABOLISHING DEATH
THE ULTIMATE TRIUMPH 1 Corinthians 15:54-58
There is a preacher of the old school, but he speaks as boldly as ever today. He’s not very popular, even though the world is his parish, and he travels to every part o…
SUNDAY STUDY: Spiritual Warfare
Compiled from teachings by Greg Laurie @ Harvest.org
“There are two equal and opposite errors into which our [human] race can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them. They themselves are equally pleased by both errors, and hail a materialist or magician with the same delight” (Lewis, C.S. The…
SUNDAY STUDY: What Do You Want?
By Oswald Chambers @utmost.org
Should you then seek great things for yourself? Do not seek them. — Jeremiah 45:5
Are you seeking great things for yourself? Not seeking to become a great man or woman, but seeking great gifts from God? God wants your relationship with him to be closer than a relationship based on receiving his gifts. He wants you to get to know him. Nothing is easier than get…
SUNDAY STUDY: Resurrection Sunday 2025
No one truly preaches the Gospel unless they preach Jesus and the resurrection. Wherever the disciples went, they preached that Christ died for our sins, that He was buried, and that He rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures.
There is no Biblical connection between the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the common modern traditions related to Easter Sunday.
In order to make Christ…
SUNDAY STUDY: Palm Sunday
Compiled from Jack Kelley at gracethrufaith.com
Jesus took the Twelve aside and told them, “We are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written by the prophets about the Son of Man will be fulfilled. He will be handed over to the Gentiles. They will mock him, insult him, spit on him, flog him and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.” (Luke 18:31-33)
