Back in the 1990’s, a group of scholars assembled to evaluate whether, in their opinion, Jesus said the things attributed to him by the Gospel writers and whether the events described by them really happened. This group became known as the Jesus Seminar. Although they used very subjective criteria in their assessments, tragically they were […]
“What Is Love?” is the repeated line in Haddaway’s hit 1993 dance song by that title. It raises a good question: What is love? Usually people think of love as a feeling or an emotion. They say, “I feel so in love.” But, feelings come and go. That’s why the Bible speaks about love as […]
Do you know what the first thing recorded in the New Testament is? It’s the family tree of Jesus. Before the details about the first Christmas we have a record of the human ancestry of Jesus. Yet, in this family tree, from which came the Savior of humanity, there is something unexpected—four women: Tamar, Rahab, […]
If you’re a Christian, born-again by the spirit of God (John 3:7-8), then the minute you came to know Christ as your Savior and Lord, God “began a good work in you” (Philippians 1:6a). What work did God begin when you trusted in him? The work of salvation. In the New Testament, salvation is actually […]
Mary and Martha are the names of two women in the New Testament. They were sisters of Lazarus (the one whom Jesus brought back from the dead), and they were friends of Jesus. There was this time that Jesus went to visit their home… Luke 10:38–42 – Now it happened as they went that He entered […]
Recently, I noticed the water in my shower wasn’t draining properly. It had been progressively getting worse and worse over the last few weeks. Yesterday it clogged completely. So, I decided to investigate. Removing the metal drain cover on the floor of the shower, I peered down. I saw a ball of hair/guck. Taking care […]
In our day there is no lack of opinions about who Jesus is. How many of you have had the experience in talking about Jesus where there were many varied opinions about him by the people you were talking with? If you ask the Buddhist, they will say he is not God but rather he […]
Yesterday, on September 19, 2022, I (like many) watched the one hour funeral service for Queen Elizabeth II. As I did so, three things stood out for me. First, a recognition of her many years of dedicated service in her role. In the opening bidding by David Hoyle, Dean of Westminster, he said, “With admiration […]
Did you know that September 12th is the National Day of Encouragement in the United States? Proclaimed as such during the tenure of President George W. Bush, this day has been set aside as a day to “encourage someone you know.” To my knowledge, Canada hasn’t yet adopted this holiday. It got me thinking about […]
The average person will spend approximately 150,000 hours at work in their lifetime. That represents about 40% of our waking lives! In light of that, we would do well to reflect more on what the Bible says about work. One verse that addresses the matter is Colossians 3:23-24 – Whatever you do, work at it […]
