Barnabas vs Ananias | Motivation for Generosity
Very good insights thanks. Now may the God of peace who by the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep, our Lord Jesus, equip you with every good thing to do his will, working in us what is pleasing before him through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever. Amen. Hebrews 13:20-21
Amen brothers!
This is ridiculous! Hebrews 10:7
Good thoughts thanks
Great podcast! Thanks for your thoughts and boldness on this issue. I think that part of the problem today is the shift among many today in the definition of the word "love". Today, love seems to be demonstrated in a way that's the opposite of what is discussed in the scriptures. Jesus says, "If you love me, you'll keep My commandments." Many today will effectively say, "If you love me, you won't point out my error." I'm glad you referenced 1 and 2 John because it's clear in his language ("Beloved", "My children") that he genuinely loves the readers of his letter. And how does he demonstrate his love for them? By warning them of those who teach in error, by reminding them not to love the things of the world, and reminding them of what the true love of God is. Thanks for the thoughts. Very nice job.
What a great contrast between the responses of Ahaz and his son, Hezekiah. Hezekiah humbled himself in prayer and God rewarded him with an Angel that cleaned house!
Amen! Good works are timeless for women and men!
Thanks for your work, guys! It's so great when stories that I heard as a child become so much richer as my love and knowledge of God increase.
Truth!
my brother Gary God bless all your steps and that of each of your brothers around the world
I am really looking forward to more content from you both! Thank you so much for doing this.
