                                     1 Corinthians 15 speaks on the doctrine of resurrection among other things. We should begin with who wrote the book. Paul the apostle wrote book which is one of three letters biblical historians say he wrote to the Corinthian church. The church was located in the city of Corinth, a major city in the country of Greece. The church had many problems, including sin and doctrinal confusion. Paul wrote to correct the sinful behavior and clarify doctrine, especially concerning the resurrection. Paul was trying to teach and discipline a troubled and doctrinally unstable congregation.  Major doctrinal errors and false teaching had risen. One was deadly the dangerous belief—borrowed from the Sadducees and Greek intellectuals namely that there is no resurrection of the dead. The Sadducees, who rejected spiritual realities and denied resurrection altogether. The G...

   When we open Scripture, there are both clear and deeper applications that confront how we live. One obvious and important application is the responsibility to bring our children to the Lord in order to ensure they are given the opportunity to know Him from a young age. A  second is proper  teaching and  shepherding of vulnerable new believers  who are "spiritual children" This is not merely about routine, but about spiritual stewardship In the Gospel of Matthew 18:3–7, Jesus  speaks " And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me. 6 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the...

                                                  Do not be unequally yoked     I was recently watching a discussion on YouTube where a group of men were talking about relationships and marriage. During the conversation, one of the Video podcast speakers referenced a Scripture ,2 Corinthians 6:14,—though he did not quote it directly. The verse says, “Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers.” He used this idea to talk about the importance of alignment in relationships, particularly in today’s divided culture, where differences in values, beliefs, and even politics can easily lead to conflict.    The group discussed how, for a marriage to function well, there must be a level of unity and shared direction. Being in a relationship where two people constantly clash over core beliefs can create ongoing tension and instability. Anoth...

                                                                     Stay silent?  Jesus gives every Christian the "The Great Commission" in Matthew 28:18 " Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. With Tick Tock, YouTube and all the different social media platforms; everybody's giving their opinion, everybody's talking and arguing. As the old saying goes some people just love to hear themselves talk.  Any person with account an application can shout anything ,sometimes just a stream of anger or fully re...

                                           A Real-Life Moment and a lesson.    A friend and I were recently having a friendly conversation about getting together. We were discussing times, days, and a place. However, that simple discussion—because of stress, our flesh, and plain human weakness—turned into several disagreements that eventually became an argument. Looking back, at least from my perspective, it was a trivial issue that became far more overblown than it ever needed to be. This was not really about schedules or logistics. It was about our humanity. Both of us are human. Both of us carry stress. And when you are tired and living in the flesh, even a small situation can turn into two rams battling for dominance. Yes two or more Christians can get angry , frustrated and argue over "life." As the disagreement escalated, we both eventually had to apolo...

                                                  Christmas should we celebrate?   This not an article aimed at those are grieving, who are broken by the lost of loved ones and missing smiles and laughter of family and friends. There are reasons believers or those who celebrate Christmas in the past choose not to , Emotional and personal or there lives are in danger in the nations or families in which they live.    This is for those who loudly proclaim during this time and season that Christmas is a symbol of the pagan or even idolatry.  Some even claim it may even be Satan worship in disguise. This idea  thou hyperbolic in my opinion, could be partly true if the center and only part, of your celebration  is Santa , elves, the north pole and gifts :to the exclusion of Jesus Christ . If the lack of celebration is for reasons not person...
