    We Need Unity In The Body Of Christ (the Church)

    Jesus gave us two commandments: that we should love the Father first, and that we should love ALL of mankind no matter who they are. Furthermore, Jesus prayed a special prayer to the Father imploring His true followers, the Church, to be united as we serve the kingdom of heaven as “one body.”...

    The Voice of Reason

    Ephesians 2:19-22 ESV So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined...

    Adam And Eve, Christ And Israel.

    I don’t know how coherent this will be but it hit me like a lightbulb this afternoon and I wanted to note it down. I might try and edit it in the future really just for me but others might need it. How in Genesis God made Adam outside of the garden and brought him into it. And How without God...

    Roadmap For Christians

    “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Romans 12:2 Near the end of the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Romans he listed some of the things Christians should keep in mind as they go through their daily life. It’s a roadmap for worthy...

    Step Eleven – Your Place In The Body Of Christ

    A disdain for organized religion has many Christians struggling to work out their faith in isolation. This is a bad idea and not what God wants. Believers are all part of the body of Christ and need to be working together to each do their part. If you are not interacting with other believers...

    We, The Body

    Ephesians 4:11-16 NASB And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the...

    Are You Washed?

    1 Corinthians 6:9-11 ESV Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will...

    The Humble Hackberry

    It has gray corky looking bark. Typically this North Dakota native typically grows 30 to 50 feet. It seldom grows in pure stands because it is not a very strong competitor. It is often mistaken for the American Elm but it lacks the lovely vase shape and does not turn yellow in the fall, but...

    Dan 10:6 [Voice of a Multitude? = Body of Christ] 1 Cor 12:12-27

    I believe that GOD has a voice of a multitude (Daniel 10:6) because that is the body of Christ that is talking within Him. (1 Corinthians 12:12-27) GOD can't sound like a bunch of people if it wasn't a bunch of people living inside HIM. (John 15:1-7) That's why I believe we are the "us" in...

    Christian "religion" and War.

    Christianity = faith, hope and trust in Jesus as Savior. It is devoid of religious structure. It is not a political subdivision. It has zero to do with war. Christians at war is an oxymoron. Christians are the Body of Christ. We get dragged into war because of the failure of our culture to...

    Denominations are at odds with the true body of Christ

    I don't attend a denominational church because they require that everyone agrees on a particular doctrine and/or statement of faith. I disagree with that approach because it isn't in agreement with the New Testament. When the first ekklesia were formed they were groups of people, each person...

    Psalm 33: He knows me personally

    In today’s hectic world, it is very easy to feel misplaced. We know we are saved by the blood of Jesus, but there are seasons in life when it seems as if we are blindly groping along, wondering if God can find us amid all the pollution. Does He know me personally? Or are we all “His people”...
