Though we have heard, read, and taught about the conversion of an Ethiopian eunuch countless times, it still thrills us to contemplate that great occasion! We want to focus on what Philip did as he reached out  to a man who was in charge of a queen’s treasury.  Philip had an obedient spirit. When the […]

As a follow-up to last month’s article dealing with the deadly doctrine of “Salvation by Faith  Only,” we want to consider the widespread false teaching that water baptism is not essential to  salvation. If one does not give the scriptural answer  to the question, “What must one do to be saved,”  that is a serious problem. I

Some officers of the Jews admitted, “No man  ever spoke like this Man!” (John 7:46). Amen! The  Lord Jesus truly was the greatest teacher in history. As a person, the Christ was sinless (Hebrews 4:15). As a communicator, His ability to connect  with people and express the truth is unmatchable. We stand in awe of both His

This “one another” Christianity is a key theme  in the New Testament. A quick search of the New  King James version shows this theme appearing  nearly sixty times in the New Testament. Long  ago, Cain asked the question, “Am I my brother’s  keeper?” (Genesis 4:9), and the rest of the Bible  (especially the New Testament)

It is a wonderful privilege to be a child of God. In the early portion of the letter Paul wrote to the  saints in Ephesus, he points out a number of blessings which Christians have “in Christ.”  In Ephesians 1:3, it is written, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us

The Christ was “all about” evangelism! He came  into this world to seek and save the lost (Luke  19:10). That involved Him communicating God’s  truth to those who were lost in sin. When we say “evangelism,” we mean  proclaiming the gospel to lost people. It may be  done with a written message or by oral

Some religious groups in existence today base  some of their teaching on “modern-day revelations,”  giving high praise to those whom they consider to be prophets of God. In other cases, it may not be an entire religious group which makes a claim, but individuals, in what we might deem “spur-of-the moment scenarios,” affirm that the Lord gave/gives  them

“In the beginning was the Word, and the  Word was with God, and the Word was God”  (John 1:1). “And the Word became flesh and dwelt  among us . . .” (John 1:14). It is important to  remember that Jesus existed prior to His physical  birth. He existed before the world was (John  17:5). He

The 2021 theme for the fourth page of TRUTH is “What Christians Do for One Another.” This  month, we are studying the concept of Christians  showing hospitality to one another. As observed  before, the New Testament repeatedly speaks of  Christianity in terms of “one another” considerations  and actions. Christians do, in fact, have certain  obligations

In the latter portion of Jesus’ earthly life, the  Pharisees asked Him, “Is it lawful for a man to  divorce his wife for just any reason?” (Matthew  19:3). Jesus did not always give a verbal response  when He was asked a question, but in this case He  did. Jesus’ answer: “Have you not read that
