Paul said in 2 Timothy 2:15, “…………a workman that needeth not to be ashamed.”  The implication is that there are some workmen who will be ashamed.  There are already workmen who are ashamed, who are beat down and defeated in life, and who do not have to be that way.  Again, if you STUDY the Word, you… Read More »

We need to learn how to let the things of God be FIRST according to Matthew 6:33!  Let the time run out on doing the dishes.  The Word of God is more important than dishes.  If you have to make a choice between the Word of God and cleaning up the kitchen, let the kitchen… Read More »

You want to show your Father that you got your homework completed.  You want Him to see your “A’s” when you bring them home.  You want your Father to take time to sit down and listen to what you have learned in school.  This is what we should do, and that is what the Father… Read More »

Notice that Paul said to STUDY!  Very few people STUDY the Bible.  Many people just casually glance at it.  There  is a difference between STUDYING and READING.  You can read something and not even know what you have read.  When you study something, that means that you have spent some time with it.  You have… Read More »

In Hosea 4:6, it is obvious that God is NOT talking about academic knowledge, because we have an enormous amount of “intellectuals” on the planet.  You can go to school physically, or get the courses on video recordings, or “stream,” due to the advent of home computers.  You can even do the courses through the… Read More »

As we begin learning about “faith’s greatest enemies,” the number one would probably be “Ignorance of the Word of God.”  It is say, yet tur, how many ignorant Christians there are, completely devoid of knowledge of the Word of God.  Most know a little bit about salvation or being born-again, but beyond that they have… Read More »

IF we are in a fight, what makes it a fight? OPPOSITION!  We can also call an opponent and “enemy.”  If we are told by the Word of God to fight the good fight of faith, then there must be some enemies to fight.  If we are going to successfully fight, don’t you think that  it would… Read More »

In more than one place, the Word tells us that the “Just shall live by faith.” (Ro. 1:17, Gal. 3:11; Heb. 10:28). In other words we are supposed to LIVE BY FAITH!  Faith is a WAY OF LIFE!   Faith is not a magic wand. Faith is not an Aladdin’s lamp.  Faith is not a spare… Read More »
