The Ninety-Five

In the Sunday sermon at Alex Southern Baptist Chapel, I made brief mention about how Jeremiah’s prophecy applied to us even though Israel was the original audience. I pointed out that in Isaiah 19, God foretold that He will consider both Egypt and Assyria as His blessed people as equals to the nation of Israel. […]

Worship, Not Ritual Hebrews 10 14 For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified.15 And the Holy Spirit also testifies to us; for after saying,16 “THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THEMAFTER THOSE DAYS, SAYS THE LORD:I WILL PUT MY LAWS UPON THEIR HEART,AND ON THEIR […]

When you hear, “Family Worship,” you probably think of a set time you might gather your family together to sing a song, hear a Bible lesson, and basically have a mini church service. That can be intimidating–especially if you don’t have much musical ability or have never “preached.” Well, I have some good news for […]

John has introduced the Word, who was with God and was God in the beginning. I believe this is the word through whom God spoke creation into being. I believe it is the Voice of God that was walking in the Garden in Genesis 3. I believe it is the Word the prophets heard when […]

In Ephesians 2, after glorifying Christ as the one far above all rule and authority and power and dominion–noting that Jesus has all these in the present tense, Paul shares the Gospel. If we read Ephesians 1 before we read Ephesians 2, which seems to make perfect sense as a way to read, we see […]

People don’t need us to cast a grand vision. They need us to be faithful. You’ve heard it before: “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” Great leaders stand on their podiums and at their pulpits to cast a grand vision about how things can be and how we will get there! I ask, […]

No, Your Pastor Isn’t the Leader of Your Church In our human nature, filled with sin, we are very prone to pride, even in ministry. Really in everything we do. You’ve heard the song, “Everybody wants to rule the world.” Such a statement is so true from our natural human hearts–before Christ redeems us, gives […]

The first eleven chapters in the Bible are my favorite. As someone who questioned their veracity before I started following Jesus, I understand there are some difficult things in these chapters. When we read these chapters, we read them like 21st century Americans obsessed with particular orders of events and the scientific method—things that the […]

The Apostle, Paul, wrote Ephesians from prison in AD 60-62 to the saints. While the letter certainly made it to Ephesus, it may have simply been written “to the saints,” because “at Ephesus” is missing from three important early manuscripts. The tone of Ephesians is more generic than Paul’s other letters. The letter is about […]

Is it right for a teacher of the Bible to accept payment for what God has made freely available, His word? If a “pastor” is paid, does the church have a right to create a job description? We do not only ask these questions today. They were likely being asked in the First Century in […]
