The Lord’s Day

Jim — Sat, 28 Mar 2020 19:20:48 +0000

Does The Bible Say That Sunday Is The Lord’s Day ? In the latest edition of the Gospel Minutes newspaper, a question was submitted by someone, concerning Christians calling Sunday, “the Lord’s day”. They said that in the scriptures, they couldn’t find anything to verify that Sunday was called “the Lord’s day”. And I thought that Clem Thurman gave a good answer, so I’d like...

James 5, Verses 13 thru 20

Jim — Sun, 19 Jan 2020 14:43:21 +0000

Concerning James 5, Verses 13 thru 20 Verse 13 introduces a new subject matter, from the previous verses. James had been talking about those who trust in their riches, instead of trusting in God. And he had been talking about how the rich sometimes persecute the poor. And he talked about being patient, and waiting on the Lord, to receive the Lord’s blessings. And he talked about treating one...

Prayer – Part 2

Jim — Thu, 12 Sep 2019 14:50:53 +0000

What Prayer, Is Not Last week we talked about prayer, with the main focus being on what prayer is. And of course, to put it very simply, prayer is talking to God. It’s talking to the Almighty God, the creator and sustainer of all things; And it’s talking to our Father in heaven, and it’s talking to the one who should be, our very closest friend. And...

Prayer – Part 1

Jim — Thu, 05 Sep 2019 13:38:30 +0000

What is Prayer ? This will be at least a two-part lesson, this week and next week. Today I’d like to talk about, What is prayer? Next week I want us to consider what prayer is NOT. But for now, what is prayer? Prayer is simply talking to God. There’s nothing mysterious about prayer, and there’s nothing complicated about it, or hard to understand, it’s simply...

Encouragement, Pass It On

Jim — Sun, 16 Jun 2019 14:58:43 +0000

Words of Encouragement I’m with you. I’m listening to you. I’m praying for you. I care about you. You matter to me. You make me happy. Just a few simple words like that can lift someone up, and be an encouragement to them. The bible says in Hebrews 10:24; “And let us consider one another, to provoke unto love and good works.” We...

A Religious “Tract” A friend of mine found a little religious tract the other day, and he showed it to me, and here’s part of what it said; One day John’s friend stopped him.. “John, I’ve got some good news for you! “Really?” John said. “Yes, the bible tells us that heaven can be our home, since Jesus Christ died for our sins! “That is good...

Teach Us To Pray Bible Reading: Mathew 6, verses 5 thru 15 “And when you pray, you are not to be as the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners, in order to be seen by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your inner room,...

Is There A “Sinner’s Prayer” In The Bible ?

Jim — Mon, 01 May 2017 02:13:57 +0000

Should We Pray a Sinner’s Prayer ? There are countless people who have been told that they can be saved by believing in Jesus Christ, and by praying the “sinner’s prayer”. The problem with this is that the bible never tells us such a thing. The bible does indeed tell us several things that we must do to be saved, but saying a “sinner’s prayer” is not...

The Stairway of Ahaz

Jim — Sun, 02 Apr 2017 15:05:29 +0000

The Stairway to the Temple The stairway of Ahaz is mentioned twice in the old testament. Once in 2 Kings 20:9-11, and again in Isaiah 38:8. Ahaz was the king of Judah from 735 to 715 BC. But he wasn’t a very good king. He basically aligned himself with the nation of Assyria, and he adopted the worship of foreign idols, and he even lost control...

Do All in the Name Of the Lord You’ve no doubt heard the phrases, “in the name of the Lord”, and “in Jesus’ name”, and “in Christ’s name”, but what exactly do those words mean? You’ve probably also heard of the practice of some people, to end all prayers with the words.. “In Jesus’ name, Amen”. What does that mean? Is that a required method of...

The Power Of Prayer

Jim — Sat, 21 Jan 2017 17:23:40 +0000

Is There Really any Power in Prayer ? Our lesson today is on the power of prayer. Is there power in prayer? We’re urged by God to pray. As a matter of fact, we’re told in 1 Thessalonians 5:17, “Pray without ceasing”. So in other words, make prayer such an integral part of your life, that your practice of praying, never ceases. It’s the same as saying.. Don’t “forsake”...
