SUNDAY STUDY: The Earth: Formed for a Purpose
By Simon Turpin @answersingenesis.org
What is the purpose of the earth? Well, the answer to this question depends on your worldview. From a naturalistic evolutionary viewpoint, there is none. In the evolutionary worldview, the earth has no design, plan, or purpose—it simply evolved by natural processes over billions of years. Furthermore, in an evolutionary worldview, mankind evolved from preex…

SUNDAY STUDY: Desiring Spiritual Success
From Oswald Chambers @utmost.org
Do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you… —Luke 10:20
Worldliness is not the trap that most endangers us as Christian workers; nor is it sin. The trap we fall into is extravagantly desiring spiritual success; that is, success measured by, and patterned after, the form set by this religious age in which we now live. Never seek after anything o…

Exodus 12:12-13 “12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt on that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the Lord. 13 Now the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be on you to destroy you wh…
SUNDAY STUDY: The Collision of God and Sin
By Oswald Chambers @utmost.org
…who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree… —1 Peter 2:24
The Cross of Christ is the revealed truth of God’s judgment on sin. Never associate the idea of martyrdom with the Cross of Christ. It was the supreme triumph, and it shook the very foundations of hell. There is nothing in time or eternity more absolutely certain and irrefutable than what Je…
SUNDAY STUDY: No One Knows the Day or Hour
Written by Jack Kelley @ gracethrufaith.com
Those who ignore the study of end times prophecy are fond of quoting this famous line which appears in various forms in Matt. 24:36; Matt. 24:42,44; Matt. 24:50 and Matt 25:13 as their justification. But earlier in the same passage, the Lord had admonished all who would read His words of prophecy to understand them (Matt 24:15) and elsewhere the Apos…

THE MOST IMPORTANT EVENT IN HUMAN HISTORY AND KNOWLEDGE
THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST FROM THE DEAD
Mary Magdalene, out of whom Jesus had cast seven demons (Luke 8:2), was the last one at the Cross and the first one at the tomb.

SUNDAY STUDY: Purim, sunset Saturday, March 23 to sunset, Sunday, March 24, 2024
Every year on the 14th of the Jewish month Adar, Purim is celebrated by Jews all over the world.
PURIM commemorates the courage of a young Jewish girl named Esther (Hadassah was her Jewish name) who married the King of Persia. She was an instrument in the hand of God to avert the destruction of the Jewish people.
God’s timing is always perfect. The story of Esther in the Bible reminds us to pra…
SUNDAY STUDY: Work Out What God Works In You
Philippians 2:12-13 “Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.”
Is there anything that so thoroughly tests our whole profession of the Christian faith as our reaction to it when it calls upon us to …
SUNDAY STUDY: Facing Replacement Theology (Part 2)
By PAUL J. SCHARF
What’s Going on Around the Globe?
Fazio sees a cyclical aspect to this type of philosophical swing and believes that a commitment to literal interpretation might also move to another point on the globe, such as African nations or other developing countries.
“Hopefully,” he said, “we can really invest in developing and training pastors in such areas and shaping the minds of the…
SUNDAY STUDY: God’s Plan In A Nutshell – Part 2
By Jack Kelley @gracethrufaith.com
The Judgment
God determined that His plan would have a fixed expiration, after which He would bring it to a conclusion. At that time all of mankind will stand before Him. If they have died He will bring them back to life, never to die again. Everyone will be shown the point in his or her life when the two choices available were made clear to them. Remember, pa…
SUNDAY STUDY: God’s Plan In A Nutshell – Part 1
By Jack Kelley @gracethrufaith.com
You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. You were blameless in your ways until wickedness was found in you (Ezekiel 28:12,15).
There is nothing in the Bible to tell us when the angelic realm was created. However, Job 38:4-7 speaks of the angels shouting for joy when God laid the Earth’s foundation, so they had to have been create…
