Black and Blue Friday

Last updated on: November 24, 2017 at 10:45 am By Jack Wellman

Which is Safer? The Running of the Bulls or Black Friday Shopping? Running of the Bulls I’ve seen some very close encounters of those who were participating in the Running of the Bulls. A few didn’t fare so well, and some were even sent to the hospital, but I wonder if it’s fair to compare Black Friday with the Running of the Bulls? For some, it’s slightly less risky than playing for NFL. I could even call it Black and... Read more

Potluck Saturday We have a lot of great cooks in our church…I’m just not one of them, but we are all very blessed so I want to share with you some ideas on how you can feed the poor in your community.

Whatever Happened To The Gospel Of Jesus Christ?

Last updated on: November 2, 2017 at 3:20 pm By Jack Wellman

If your church does not regularly share the gospel, maybe they don’t know it as well as they think they do. Half a Gospel General William Booth, the founder of the Salvation Army, was about the most fervent and passionate man I’ve read about in witnessing to the lost. He once said, “Most Christian organizations would like to send their workers to Bible College for five years. I would like to send our workers to hell for five minutes. That... Read more

Cities Of Refuge

Last updated on: November 2, 2017 at 12:33 pm By Jack Wellman

Why does God set up cities of refuge for the nation of Israel? Are these cities symbolic of something or someone else? Cities of Refuge There were accidental deaths in ancient Israel just as there are accidental deaths today in which a person is not responsible or guilty of killing the person, so God, in His divine wisdom, established cities of refuge where those who are involved in such incidents can flee to while the legal process takes place and...

God The Evangelist

Last updated on: October 31, 2017 at 9:46 am By Jack Wellman

We are not really the evangelists…God is the true evangelist, and here’s why. God Grants Repentance I take heart in the fact that God is in control of salvation. From beginning to end, it is fully a work of God, but God does use others as a means to accomplish His purpose, and that purpose is sometimes met when God grants them repentance. The Apostle Peter wrote, “The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness,... Read more

Why There Is No Remission Of Sin Without Sacrifice

Last updated on: October 28, 2017 at 11:07 am By Jack Wellman

The sacrificial system pointed to Jesus Christ Who would eventually be the once-and-for-all sacrifice for all those who would trust in Him. Reasons for Offerings There is such difficulty in determining a central theme of the Pentateuch but I believe that the five major offerings are of such great importance for the following reasons. First of all, the fall of mankind had severed the personal fellowship that Adam and Eve had enjoyed and had been blessed by in the Garden,... Read more

Four Core Characteristics of God

Last updated on: November 2, 2017 at 2:52 pm By Jack Wellman

Here are four major attributes or characteristics of God. Holiness One characteristic of God is that He cannot dwell with or be in the presence of sin. After the fall, God’s fellowship with mankind was severed. That’s because God cannot even look upon sin as sin is against the very nature of God. This may explain why God had to turn away from even from His own Son at the cross when Jesus cried out, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” that... Read more
