Ezra 7-10: Pleading of the High Priest

43 days ago by Jacky

This is the same Ezra whose lineage is traced ...

The Great Persecution

45 days ago by Ed Bromfield

I think we often read past Acts 8:1-4 just to get to Philip’s ministry to Samaria and the Ethiopian eunuch. Nevertheless, these four verses tell us a great deal, and are pretty much continued at Acts 11:19. It seems Luke placed Philip’s ministry to Samaria and the Ethiopian plus Saul’s conversion pl ...

Christmas Time 2011

51 days ago by McDaniels

It's almost that time again! Christmas - when we remember that our Savior came to this earth as a man. As Hebrews 2:17 says, "Therefore he had to be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for th ...

The Tenth Temptation of God

51 days ago by Ed Bromfield

Whether or not Stephen was concluding his address to the Sanhedrin is not specifically stated in the text. However, it seems by the time he stated that the Most High doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands, quoting Isaiah the prophet, Stephen seems to react to something the crowd said or did, becau ...

Acts 23-25 (NLT) Discover His heart: He guides our path, enabling us to fulfill His calling Even though lawyers are often the target of jokes and ridicule, we evidently enjoy observing them work. At any time of the day, we can watch them wax eloquent in the courts of justice on the ever popular Law ...

“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

The Prophet Like Moses and Worship

59 days ago by Ed Bromfield

Remember that Stephen was accused of blasphemy against Moses (or the Law) and against the Temple (Acts 6:13-14). In the last four blogs I’ve shown how Stephen addressed the first accusation. By and large the fathers had rejected both Moses and Joseph and had no faith in God as their father, Abraham ...
