Some people think that God is far up in the heavens and that we are way down here on earth, that since He is far superior to us, He doesn’t care to be too intimately related to us. However, if the veil could be removed from our eyes, we would be astonished to see what… Continue reading How to Receive Eternal Life

It’s Human to Need God
It is human to need God. In a very real sense, our need for God has nothing to do with religion or with any weakness or depravity on our part. We need God simply because we are human. In fact, the deep sense of a need for God is the mark of a genuine and normal humanity. King David said, “As… Continue reading It’s Human to Need God

From Tradition to Reality
God’s Purpose as Portrayed in Typology Even when I was young, I remember not being drawn toward ritualistic observances in religion. I wanted to know why we did the things we did, why we practiced the things we practiced. I wasn’t satisfied with the answer I was frequently given: “We do this because we’ve been… Continue reading From Tradition to Reality
From Tradition to Reality – Part 2

“For the word of the cross is to those who are perishing foolishness, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” — 1 Corinthians 1:18 Written nearly 2,000 years ago, these words in the Bible address the attitude of certain Greeks in Corinth who prided themselves on their philosophy. They… Continue reading The Word of the Cross – Foolishness or Wisdom?
Discovering the Whole Truth – The New Testament
I can never forget noticing in school that my brother was carrying a New Testament in his back pocket. I thought, “What is a New Testament?” Then I thought, “Maybe it’s the Old Testament revised… like a second edition or something.” Later, I found out that some fellow Jews felt we shouldn’t read it. I… Continue reading Discovering the Whole Truth – The New Testament
The Healing Touch
As Jesus made His way through the throngs of people surrounding Him, He suddenly stopped and asked, “Who touched Me?” It seemed obvious to His disciples, so they answered that it was the crowds pressing upon Him. But Jesus insisted, “Someone touched Me.” He knew a particular someone had touched Him, because at that moment,… Continue reading The Healing Touch
The Third Part
Have you ever felt unsatisfied, let down, even inexplicably empty, after you got what you thought would make you happy? You’re not alone. This perplexing feeling has been known to strike the most accomplished and wealthy people as well as the less accomplished and less wealthy. In fact, King Solomon had it all—a kingdom, untold… Continue reading The Third Part
