Whose camp are you in?
2 Samuel 3:1 “There was a long war between the house of Saul and the house of David. And David grew stronger and stronger, while the house of Saul became weaker and weaker.” The Bible tells us that there is a war going on in this world that every person is a part of. It’s…

The Unknown
1 Corinthians 2:9-10 “But, as it is written, ‘What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him’— these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit.” Last night I was watching a nature program on PBS. It was about the natural history of…

A Great Mystery Revealed
1 Corinthians 1:30 “And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption.” The Bible talks about mysteries.

Leviticus 26:2-4 “You shall keep my Sabbaths and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord. If you walk in my statutes and observe my commandments and do them,then I will give you your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.” One of the…

Seeing wonders
Psalm 119:18 “Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law.” This is one of my favorite verses. God’s law, His Word, the Bible, is filled with wondrous things; but if God doesn’t open our eyes to them, we will miss them. They are things that are more precious than gold,…

Who is God?
Exodus 20:4-5 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the LORD your God am a…
