Is the great commission the only command of Christ for right standards with God? What must you obey to obey Christ?
After his resurrection, Jesus told his disciples, “go therefore and make disciples of all the nations…teaching them to observe all that I commanded you.” Matthew 28:19-20. This is sometimes referred to as the Great Commission. As followers of Christ, we are all given this work to go out and share the good news. But all [...]
Why did God harden the heart of Pharaoh?
Exodus 8:15 (NKJV), “But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart and did not heed them, as the LORD had said.” It was the Lord’s mercy which caused Pharaoh to harden his own heart. Pharaoh didn’t want to lose the Israelites’ slave labor. When relief came, he thought he could do [...]

The depth of his love for God was demonstrated on the [...]
When was Jesus crucified? It was not Friday, because He said He would be dead three days and three nights
This can certainly be a puzzling question! By our way of counting, the third day would seem to be on Monday, but it seems the phrase "for three days" can really indicate parts of three days. He was in the grave for part of Friday, all of Saturday, and part of Sunday, so parts of [...]
The precious blood of Jesus not only paid for our sins, but also the breaking of generational curses. Why do most pastors keep on reminding us that we have generational curses when Jesus has paid the price? Also, does the curse of Ham apply today?
The blood of Jesus pays for our sins. 1 Timothy 2:5,6: “…the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself a ransom for all to be testified in due time.” This testimony has been delivered to those whom God has called to be part of the church class - the "bride of Christ." The rest of mankind will receive [...]
