Our Infinite God

Jim — Sat, 04 Apr 2020 19:05:43 +0000

Words to Describe Our Infinite God There are many words that have been used to describe our Almighty God. “Almighty” is just one of them. But other words are “eternal”, which in the case of God, means without beginning and without end. And “Omniscient”, which means.. all knowing, with absolutely nothing being hidden from His awareness; And “omnipresent”, which means, in the ultimate sense.. to be...

Our Sovereign God

Jim — Sat, 04 Apr 2020 15:14:31 +0000

What Does Sovereign Mean ? I was asked by someone what sovereign means, and I had to pause a minute and think about how I would define the word. And my first thought was “self-governing” or “self-ruling”. I remembered the term “sovereign state” and I thought of a state that is self-governing, and under no one else’s control. And I thought of a king’s sovereignty, as...

Having God On Your Side

Jim — Sat, 04 Jan 2020 01:09:27 +0000

God is on My Side ! Psalm 56, verse 9 says; “Then shall my enemies turn back, in the day that I call; This I know, that God is for me!” Psalm 111:6 says; “Jehovah is on my side, I will not fear. What can man do unto me?” Is God on Your Side ? I want to read a quote from Jesus. ...

Ecclesiastes Chapter 12 (1) “Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them. (2) While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened, nor the clouds return after the rain: (3) In the day when the keepers of the...

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...

Worthy Art Thou !

Worthy Art The Lamb Who Was Slain I’d like to read to you a few passages from the book of Revelation. Go ahead and follow along in your own bibles if you’d like. I’m going to start at the very beginning, in Revelation 1, verses 1 thru 3; “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to Him, to show unto His servants, even the things which...

Don’t Disappoint The One Who Loves You

Jim — Mon, 05 Aug 2019 01:16:08 +0000

Disappointment Have you ever been disappointed by the actions of another? Sure you have, everyone, at some time or another has been disappointed by what someone else has done. Have you ever been the one who has disappointed someone else? I’m sure that I have. I’m not happy with that fact, but I’m sure that it’s happened. In just very casual relationships, I’ve come to...

Two Plus Two Doesn’t Always Equal Four

Jim — Sat, 03 Aug 2019 00:16:32 +0000

God’s Math Is Not Our Math In the world we live in, two plus two always equals four, and two divided by two always equals one. But that’s not always true in God’s world. God seems to add and divide differently than we do. Let me give you an example of that.. In Mathew 14, verses 17 thru 20, we have the story of how Jesus feed...

Calling On The Name Of The Lord

Jim — Sat, 01 Jun 2019 15:32:21 +0000

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...

Karma, Luck, or God; Where Have You Put Your Faith ?

Jim — Sat, 16 Feb 2019 18:30:04 +0000

Karma.. I hear a lot of people talking about Karma these days. They say, what goes around, comes around; In other words, someday you’re going to get treated the same way you treat other. People say; I don’t worry about getting revenge, I just let Karma take it’s course. But that’s really not what the notion of Karma originally refers to. Karma has it’s origin in Hinduism. ...

A Comprehensive Study Of The Holy Spirit Of God – Part 2

Jim — Sun, 03 Feb 2019 01:21:25 +0000

The “Role” and the “Work” of the Holy Spirit In Part 1 of this study, we saw how the bible portrays the Holy Spirit as the “power” of God. By the word “power”, I mean the active force that accomplishes the will of God. For example, it was the Spirit of God (aka the Holy Spirit) who was “moving over the face of the waters” during the...

A Comprehensive Study Of The Holy Spirit Of God – Part 1

Jim — Sat, 26 Jan 2019 23:57:01 +0000

Who Is The Holy Spirit ? In our study of the Holy Spirit, the first thing we need to do, is to answer the question, “Who is the Holy Spirit”? And of course we’re not going to speculate about it, but as with all things, we’re going to simply see what the bible says about it. Then we’ll be sure that we know the truth of...

How Does God Communicate With Us ? – Part 1

Jim — Sun, 04 Nov 2018 15:20:26 +0000

Does God Speak To Us? The first time ever recorded, that God communicated with man, was in Genesis 2, verse 16. It says there; “And the Lord God commanded the man saying; From any tree of the garden you may eat freely..” And the next verse says; “But from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat. For in the day that...

Why Does God Allow Suffering ?

Jim — Sat, 03 Nov 2018 22:14:03 +0000

Why Does God Allow Bad Things To Happen? We’ve all heard questions like that. And we’ve heard about how suffering can help to make us more like Christ, and how it can bring us closer to God. And there’s truth in those things. In a lot of instances of suffering, there’s no one else to turn to but God! But how would you answer that question? Why does...

Do You Need God ?

Jim — Sun, 28 Oct 2018 00:25:26 +0000

Do You Need God Every Hour? There’s a hymn that begins with these words; “I need Thee every hour, O gracious Lord. No tender voice like Thine, can peace afford.” What does it mean when the song says; “No tender voice like Thine, can peace afford”? I can’t be 100% sure what the writer of this song meant, but the opinion of a few others, is that...

Are We All Gods ?

Jim — Sat, 25 Aug 2018 23:51:23 +0000

“I say, You are gods” In Psalm 82:6, the Lord says; “I say, You are gods.” Those words have caused a lot of wondering, and have led to a lot of theories about the nature of man. One man said that we are all created with a “divine nature”. That’s what he thinks it means to be created “in the likeness of God”. His belief is that...

I Am, Who I Am When’s the last time, that you’ve taken some time, to think about, and to appreciate, all that God is, and exactly what makes God, who He is? That’s what I want us to do today; Think about all the things that God is. There’s a song called “Our God He is alive”. The chorus says; “There is a God, He is...

What Is The Kingdom Of Heaven ?

Jim — Sun, 17 Jun 2018 01:38:59 +0000

Thy Kingdom Come Two phrases that are used repeatedly in the new testament are; “the kingdom of heaven”, and “the kingdom of God”. Both phrases are used to refer to the very same thing. That only makes sense, since the dwelling place of God, is heaven. (“the heaven of heavens”, or “the highest heaven”. There’s two more phrases that always refer to the same thing) Jesus used the...
