Circumcised in Christ

An Old Testament Ritual Unveiling New Testament Reality I have heard it said that the Old Testament is the New Testament concealed and the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed. I believe that when we go to the scriptures with this mindset it helps us understand deeper things of God. One particular...

Keeping Ourselves From Idols

This week Dave Edwards and Steve Bremner sit down to talk about something burning in our hearts, but wind up having a spontaneous discussion on idolatry, and what that looks like in our society culture. Do you have anything you’re setting up in your life “beside” or “near” the...

The Glory

“For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,”made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.” (2...

Judge Rightly

(Is not some guy’s name) Jesus commanded men to judge rightly and He told them to “judge not.” Did the Lord contradict Himself? Or does the Bible say more about judging than the general public realizes? Jesus repeatedly taught men to judge rightly, insisting they “judge with righteous...

The Sense of God’s Holiness

‘Among those who approach me I will show myself holy; in the sight of all the people I will be honored.’ -Lev. 10.3 The nations are perishing and the Church is languishing for want of the knowledge of God. This generation of American souls is largely ignorant of the God of the Scriptures, and we...

The Love of the Father vs The Love of the World

“Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.  For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world.  The world and its...

The Dry Bones of Israel & the Primacy of Worship

“Then He said to me, ‘Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; behold, they say, ‘Our bones are dried up and our hope has perished. We are completely cut off.’ Therefore, prophesy and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God, ‘Behold, I will open your graves and...

Let’s all get drunk!!

All were made to drink of one Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:13 They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights. Psalm 36:8 Sorry about the attention-grabbing title.  Hopefully I can explain myself in this post. I think this is one of the most neglected and fun...
