Evangelism; October 8, 2021
Romans 10:13-14 “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” 14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not … Continue reading

God’s Universal Love; October 3, 2021
Acts 22:21 “Then the Lord said to me, ‘Go; I will send you far away to the Gentiles.’” It is very telling that the crowd listened to him quietly until he said this, even though he was saying things that … Continue reading

Favoritism; September 5, 2018
Romans 2:6, 11 God “will give to each person according to what he has done”. For God does not show favoritism. 20 centuries after this was written, I think most Gentiles have trouble grasping the emotional context of what is … Continue reading

Proverbs 14:2 He whose walk is upright fears the LORD, but he whose ways are devious despises him. One of the things you can get from this verse is a secular proverb: “Actions speak louder than words.” The Bible has … Continue reading

Daniel 9:18 “We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy.” This is the essential, foundational attitude of prayer for all people at all times. When we forget this, we end up … Continue reading
