What do we know of these mysterious men who unexpectedly drop into the beginning of the gospel story? Why were they looking for the newborn king while the locals were not? What else can we learn from them?
There are a very few people that the scriptures tell us that there were none like them. We look at these few edge cases to see what we can learn, and see the repeated testimony that there are none like our God and the Lord Jesus.
Most people are zealous for something, at least for a little while. Are we zealous for the right things? How is zeal started and maintained?
A short (7 minute) lesson on the powerful lies Satan uses against us to get us to turn on both others and our own selves.
Why were the people in such a bad state when Jesus found them? Why did that move Him and what did He do about it?
Rick Erb asks us to truly examine our lives in the light of the scriptures and biblical truth.
Derek Huggins preached to us about biblical love. Starting from the love of God for us, then on to our the love we are to have to God and each other.
Unseen things -- the spiritual, the moral and emotional -- are at the very heart of life. It often looks like the things we can see dominate, but if we let them it will be to our great harm.
At a time of year when we turn to memory and recollection, we think of about where the capacity of memory originated, how our memory fails, but His does not, and how to direct the great capacity of our towards salvation.
Christ's call to follow Him leads us to engagement with His foe, the devil, whom He has already defeated. We study here how He equips us, organizes us and leads us to victory.
We consider our terrible multi-named foe and the assurance that he and his works will be destroyed.
In a world where pessimism is easy and the things that are wrong are easy to see, we find that those of strong faith are often the most optimistic. In this lesson, we examine why this is and some of the reason for Christian optimism.
When Jesus was 12 years old He gave His family quite a fright, but taught them, and all of us, that the most important mission in life of to do the Father's business.
What is the primary thing for elder? "Rule Well" is our answer from 1 Tim. 5:17. For preacher? "speak and exhort and reprove with all authority" from Titus 2:15. Then we consider elders overseeing their own congregation, but the universal authority for the teaching of Christ to go to all places.
We are made in God's image, but that image has been greatly marred by sin. In this lesson, we look at some of the effects of sin and the hope for the renewal and restoration that is offered in Christ.
What is important in this life? God places the priority on others, not ourselves. Matt Erb explains to us in this lesson that we should have the same attitude as the apostle Paul, who was willing to "spend and be spent" for the souls of others.
In this study, we look at the universality of worth for all humanity, and some of the areas in which we are made like our creator -- intelligence, creativity and a spiritual sense, among others.
We are to always be a thankful and grateful people. The seasonal holiday of Thanksgiving offers us a wonderful opportunity to do what we should always be doing.
In this lesson, we begin to look at the great importance of being God's image bearers in this world. The scriptures say that we are made in His image and pass it on to our descendants, as it was passed to us. We also think of how sin has marred that image.
Jesus clearly says hearing and acting on His word is building your house, your life, on the rock of God. Hearing and not acting is building on a foundation of sand. Our study of the Sermon on the Mount closes as we consider the clear choice Jesus places before us.
