In His Image
Genesis 1:26-27 “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness… So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” (KJV)
Jesus speaking says in John 10:30-31&34 “I and my Father are one. Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him… Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?” (KJV). Jesus was making a statement of unity: One with Himself and one with God. Read the rest of this entry
Light
1 Thess. 4:11 (GN) “Make it your aim to live a quiet life, to mind your own business, and earn your own living… In this way, you will win the respect of those who are not believers…”
Over the past few days, God has been answering the question, “Why Work?” In addition to work being God’s idea, work being a tool God uses to supply our needs, and work being a platform that God uses to build character in us, today God is saying to us work because work allows you to be generous.

Zacchaeus
“When Jesus came by, He looked up at Zacchaeus and called him by name, ‘Zacchaeus!’ He said, ‘Quick, come down for I must be a guest in your home today.” Lu.19:6 [emphasis added]
Many times, the person we see in the mirror is not the person that we want to be. In other words, the things that are proceeding out of our lives are not congruent with the things that we desire of our lives.

And many times we have experienced life change and we are concerned about the sustainability. Is this sustainable, how am I sure I will not backslide tomorrow? I know because that is how I used Read the rest of this entry
What Is Love?
“If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing” I Cor.13:2
The vertical side of love is how God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son so everyone that believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life [John 3:16]. It is love that God will call us His own and make us His own children. It is love that we have access to the Father.
Imitate God
“Don’t you see how wonderfully kind, tolerant, and patient God is with you? Does this mean nothing to you? Can’t you see that his kindness is intended to turn you from your sin?” Rom.2:4
Some people feel they need to be controlled and brought under submission. Such people do not respond to kindness, goodness, and to benevolence, they only respond to terror. Before I met my wife, I was dating another lady that I thought I was going to get married to but the relationship went south. And some Pastor’s wife approached me, she was of the impression that I had broken off the relationship. She said she Read the rest of this entry
