To the Almost Christian -By Alistair Begg
Not all who profess faith in Christ actually follow Him. Not all who give lip service to Christianity necessarily know its truth. Various warning passages (e.g., Hebrews 2:1-4 ESV; Hebrews 3:7-4:13 ESV; 1 John 2:19 ESV), along with Jesus' own words in the Gospels (e.g., Matthew 7:23 ESV; Matthew 25:41 ESV; Luke 13:27 ESV), alert us to the...
For Fedya Minakov, exile within his own country isn't a new experience. In 2014, Minakov left his hometown of Donetsk with his pregnant wife and 2-year-old child after Russian forces invaded the region in eastern Ukraine. Minakov planned to return home in a couple of months when he thought the conflict might ease: "We never got back there since."
BORODYANKA, Ukraine (AP) - It's almost Easter in Ukraine, where a trio of churches on the far edges of the capital considered faith, hope and charity on Sunday.
Innocent Blood -By Brother Chuck
God hates murder. God hates the killing of the unborn. God hates racial extermination. God hates ethnic cleansing and mass population executions. God hates even a single murder. The Bible says that God hates the "hands that shed innocent blood." That's #3 on His list of things He hates found in Proverbs 6:16-19 (ESV).
In recent days, the events from the book of Esther have become real to us in Ukraine. It's as if the decree is signed, and Haman has the license to destroy an entire nation. The gallows are ready. Ukraine is simply waiting.
"God proved His love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, "I love you.'" -Dr. Billy Graham
The Cave People -By Max Lucado
Long ago, or maybe not so long ago, there was a tribe in a dark, cold cavern. The cave dwellers would huddle together and cry against the chill. Loud and long they wailed. It was all they did. It was all they knew to do. The sounds in the cave were mournful, but the people didn't know it, for they...
On your day of judgment, when God asks you, "Why should I let you into my heaven?" How will you answer that question? Some day my friend, you're going to die. We all are. There's absolutely nothing we can do about that. Death is like a speeding freight train, it's on the tracks and it's coming your way, and you...
The first time Jesus came to Earth, He came as a sacrificial lamb. When He comes again, He'll come as a Lion of conquest. The sacrificial servant becomes the conquering King. The Lamb becomes the Lion. This epithet of the Lion and the Lamb represents the Messianic Age. The Lamb symbolizes Christ' sacrificial death. The Lion, His resurrection.
Jesus Turned Around -By Brother Chuck
Jesus is on His way to the home of Jairus. Jairus is a leader of the local synagogue. His only daughter, about 12 years old, is dying. Jairus believes that Jesus can heal her if only He can reach her in time. But she's not the only one in need of a miracle that day. Nearby there's a woman with...
