Are you a Christian and struggling to find peace and rest? We want to be independent. We tend to think that we can figure things out. We decide that if we make a plan, and follow that plan to a T, then we’ll get the desired results. Then, when things don’t work out, we become desperate. The wear and tear of this process leaves us drained. The question is how do you rest and remain peaceful? There’s Peace in the Bible and Jesus’ Words is a Bible verse word bath focused on verses about peace, hope, and strength.

“Here is rock: all else is sand,” was J.C. Ryle’s description of the Bible in the 18th century. Whether the challenge has been tradition or reason, or experience in more recent times, the Scriptures are still supreme today, God-breathed, reliable and trumping all other authorities. Yet the supremacy of Scripture is not some dictate imposed by a faceless despot. Far from it! Scripture’s words are those of Jesus, the Good Shepherd, who laid down his life for his people.

Using plain language and word pictures, Spurgeon shares an earnest word for those who are seeking salvation. It has been written to show clearly how much we all need grace and how much grace is available for our needs. The writer would like to compel us, by his words, to come to Jesus Christ and receive that grace. A classic on a great subject written by one of the greatest preachers who ever lived.

Lo que la Biblia dice sobre el candelero de oro es presentado en tres etapas: la primera etapa es el candelero de oro, la segunda etapa es el candelero de oro con el aceite de oliva (el Espíritu Santo), y la tercera etapa es el candelero en singular que llega a ser los candeleros en plural, o sea, un solo candelero llega a ser muchos candeleros. Esto es muy significativo. En Éxodo 25 el énfasis del candelero recae en Cristo; en Zacarías 4 el énfasis recae en el Espíritu Santo; y en Apocalipsis 1 el énfasis recae en las iglesias.

There is this disconnect. We know that The Bible is important, but it sometimes can feel so distant from us. It does not need to be this way. Four spiritual practices can help to bring these words to life. Prayer and journaling rooted in the scriptures can begin this process. The time honored practices of Lectio Divinia and Holy Imagining take it even deeper. When we put these to work we find that eternal truths come to life in a whole new way, deeply embedded in the workings of our own lived realities.Words Made Flesh uses the four Gospels as a case study. The four practices are applied to...

Grandpa W. was the only person who'd ever shown Levi loving care and kindness. Now, at 34 years old, Levi is left to face the challenges of life with nobody to lean on. In an attempt to find something, anything, to remember his grandpa by, Levi stumbles upon an old memento. However, this memento brings up nothing but anger and frustration. It reminds him of the awful experiences he had in church involving judgmental people who only cared about how you acted, not whether you were okay on the inside.

Does the Tanakh (the “Old Testament”) teach the divinity of the Messiah (the Christ)? The answer is “yes!” and this book will show how. The development of the Messiah theme in the Tanakh is a subtle progressive revelation, but there is nevertheless plenty there to demonstrate that a great king will one day come who will reconcile Jews and Gentiles back to God and will rule the earth as not only the son of David but also as the Son of God. To our natural minds, this seems impossible: the infinite God coming to us as a finite man; “but with God all things are possible.”

Folks today are much too busy! We haven't time for the necessary things because we are so busy being sidetracked by secondary things.

They do allow for brevity, but they do not allow for adequate spiritual nourishment. This book is an attempt to bridge this gap. The book consists of 212 pages and 90 articles, each one serving as a daily spiritual vitamin supplement. Unlike the brief daily devotional...

God initiates the move toward mankind and wants to be in relationship with the world. It is seemingly not that simple to understand that God wants to know us, to be with us, to communicate with us, and have a communion of hearts melted together. However, in this book, we will explore how three personalities in the Bible; Moses, Elijah, and John learned through a divine revelation of God of how they should act toward God and man. They changed and became what others could not see, but they became that which God saw in them. They did not have to care of how they saw themselves, or how others ...

Christianity is Jesus Christ. It is not the teaching, doctrine, system, or organization of Christ. Rather, it is Jesus Christ himself. We need to see him as God sees him. Yet this can only come about by revelation from above. The Holy Spirit will reveal Jesus to us. And when we do see him as God sees him, we will fall down and worship. Such, then, is the intent of this series of messages, whose overarching theme is best summed up in the author's choice of title to the entire series: "But We See Jesus" (Hebrews 2:9a).
