Last updated on: May 23, 2019 at 3:11 pm By Jack Wellman

What’s happened to the subject of integrity? Isn’t it still important? Integrity If we look at the definition of integrity, we can see the importance of such a virtue in society.

The Greatest Father In History

Last updated on: June 10, 2019 at 9:14 pm By Jack Wellman

God is seeking those who will worship Him in spirit and in truth (John 4:24), but He’s also seeking godly fathers after His own heart. A Protective Father Scripture is clear about God and His nature as a protective Father. The Bible says that He is “Father of the fatherless and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation” (Psalm 68:5). God also knows how to answer our prayers; it can be yes, no, or not now. It might... Read more

Does God Use Dreams To Tell Us Something?

Last updated on: May 22, 2019 at 8:47 pm By Jack Wellman

Does God use dreams as a means to tell us something? How will we know if it’s from God? Dreams and Visions Joel the Prophet wrote of a time to come where God says, “I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions” (Joel 2:28), and several men in the Bible did have dreams and visions. The list is extensive,... Read more

Sin Shaming

Last updated on: May 18, 2019 at 6:09 pm By Jack Wellman

It is far too easy to judge others over their sins when our own sins are obvious, so here’s why we shouldn’t “sin shame” others when they sin. Condemning Others Jesus said, “Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you” (Matt 7:1-2). The word Jesus used for “judge” has the connotation of condemning someone; similar to being the prosecuting... Read more

How Joy Is A Source of Strength

Last updated on: May 18, 2019 at 4:11 pm By Jack Wellman

The joy of the Lord is a source of strength, but it’s so much more. Joy is a Gift If you are grieving or going through a difficult time right now, it’s hard to have joy, but the joy of the Lord is a great source of strength, but it’s also a gift from God. Human joy can’t take us very far. It disappears in the dark shadows of our trials and tribulations, but the joy which God gives is... Read more

How The Trinity Works In Our Salvation

Last updated on: May 16, 2019 at 8:03 pm By Jack Wellman

We are saved by the redeeming work of Jesus Christ, but the other members of the Trinity are also at work in our salvation. The Father How does the Father work with the Son and the Holy Spirit in our salvation? Jesus mentions the Father’s role when He says, “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day” (John 6:44). To make it even clearer,... Read more

6 Things That Damage Our Relationship With God

Last updated on: June 3, 2019 at 11:22 am By Jack Wellman

There are a lot of things that might destroy our relationships with others, but what 6 things can damage our relationship with God? Words How can words damager our relationship with God? Our words can hurt others, and it’s not true that “words can never hurt me.” That’s probably uttered by someone who’s been hurt, but harsh or judgmental words spoken to others, and in particular to brothers and sisters in Christ, is something Jesus takes personally.

Read The Eulogy Today

Last updated on: May 14, 2019 at 7:07 pm By Jack Wellman

Nearly every funeral service or memorial service contains some form of a eulogy, but why wait until it’s too late for the deceased to hear it? Words Jesus once said that “by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned” (Matt 12:37), so we can see that words are important. Christ went on to say that “whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will... Read more

How God Limits Satan’s Power

Last updated on: October 24, 2019 at 11:48 am By Jack Wellman

Since Satan is called the “god of this world,” how does God still have control over his actions? The “god” of this World A quick glance at the news should tell us all we need to know about the state of this world. Violence, as in the days of Noah, is growing worse, but there’s a sinister minister behind it all. For example, the Apostle Paul wrote that “if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are...

Our Own Worst Enemy

Last updated on: May 1, 2019 at 3:18 pm By Jack Wellman

Roman’s chapter 7 has been described as the titanic battle between the old nature and the new, and it’s a battle royal between the Spirit and the flesh. None are Good There are countless numbers of people I’ve witnessed to who believe they’re a “pretty good person,” and have done enough good things to go to heaven, so it amazes me how some people think that the Father Who willed Jesus’ brutal suffering and death on a cross (Isaiah 53),...
