It has been said many times, God’s timing is not ours. In fact, it does not have to be said, if you are alive and human, chances are you have experienced that fact. Many of our plans have a way of not being executed according to our wills, rather they get to be executed accordingContinue reading “God’s timing”

The book of Revelation is written by John who was the “beloved disciple” of Jesus and the author of the book of John and the epistles of John. It is also comprised of many visions that John saw and was asked to reveal to the churches. This was probably also towards the end of hisContinue reading “The revelation of Jesus Christ”

One thing the apostles often cautioned against is false teachers and their teachings. Paul, Peter, James, Jude, and John all warned believers against false teachers. Paul’s letters alone amount to much of this warning. I don’t think there is a letter of Paul that does not contain a level of warning against false teachers. ThisContinue reading “False teachers and false teachings”

It will take more than a blog post to begin to describe the person of Jesus Christ and what he did. The perfect sacrifice of Christ on the cross is not something we should get tired of. Reading the book of Hebrews this week reminded me of the power that is in the act ofContinue reading “The pre-eminent Christ.”

The more I read the epistles, the more I am amazed at Paul. He exhibited Christ in his character and in the way he lived. He was a good shepherd in the sense that he cared very deeply about the churches he planted and the ones he did not plant like Colossae (Colossians 1:7). InContinue reading “The importance of the gospel”

There is always something special about getting a personal note. It is as if all of a sudden, we are “seen”, we are being “acknowledged”. With a personal note we are set apart, not to be mixed with the masses and that hits differently. The letter of Paul to Philemon was certainly no different. ItContinue reading “Pleading for your brother”

It is a gift that defines our lives as Christians. Every Christian has that mark within him, Grace – God’s riches at Christ’s expense. Through the gift of Grace, undeserving people are able to be adopted into the family of God, given a new life, and new identity. To many, this gift of Grace isContinue reading “The gift of Grace”

I wonder, what comes to our mind when we hear “honour God”? Is it an activity that seems attainable or is it one that we know we should do but seldom think about it? Does the thought of honouring God make us anxious or is it something we wholeheartedly seek after? The book of MalachiContinue reading “Honouring God”

“Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.” These words make the beginning of the first bookContinue reading “Delighting in the law of God”

“I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, … you shall have no other gods before me” (Exodus 20:2). This is the first of the ten commandments that God gave to the Israelites through Moses. While the commandments continue to be laid, we hear the words, “for I am a jealousContinue reading “God opposes the proud”
