“O sing unto the Lord a new song; for he hath done marvelous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory. The Lord hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen. He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. Make a joyful...

THE DAY BEFORE TOMORROW

ByDr. Mark December 23, 2023 0 Comments
“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." (Psalm 118:24 KJV) I know!  The heading above sounds title like a movie title of a feature file that has a catastrophic event that changes life on earth, “The Day After Tomorrow.” The latter refers to a disaster. The title I have chosen relates to deliverance.  The movie title refers to an emergency....

“For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work among you will complete it by the day of Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 1:6 NASB) Yesterday, in an unsolicited email, I received a message that had the following “Quote of the Day:” “Change is the end result of all true learning.”  For you and me, “true learning” does not take place necessarily in the...

“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us; and we saw His glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.” (John 1:14 NASB) It’s Sunday morning!  How about an important lesson about the Incarnate Christ before you leave for service? My intent is to keep be short, but surely informative, from a theological perspective. In all three Bible Study...

THE HELP

“Amalek came and fought Israel at Rephidim. Moses ordered Joshua: “Select some men for us and go out and fight Amalek. Tomorrow I will take my stand on top of the hill holding God’s staff.” Joshua did what Moses ordered in order to fight Amalek. And Moses, Aaron, and Hur went to the top of the hill. It turned out that whenever Moses raised his hands, Israel was winning, but whenever he...

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE!

“The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor the head to the feet, “I have no need of you. "No, those parts of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary. And those parts of the body which we think are less honorable, upon these we bestow more abundant honor. And our less respectable parts are treated with much more respect, whereas our more respectable parts have...

THE “I” IN THE IDIOM”

“Can’t see the forest for the trees.” As I was looking out the kitchen window, I could see the lake right behind the house whose waters were being blown eastward by a persistent wind. I could see the playground where robust children, releasing energy could be seen.  This was quite the opposite of what I could see in the spring and summer months, filled with days when the children...

THE RELEASE

“Take notice that your brother Timothy has been released, with whom, if he comes again, I shall see you.” (Hebrews 13:23 NASB) Last week in our Bible Study classes we concluded our verse-by-verse study of The Book of Hebrews. When we go to the opening, included in the writer’s concluding benediction and exhortations in Hebrews, we ponder on what Timothy had been released from, especially...

“Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep through the blood of the eternal covenant, even Jesus our Lord, equip you in every good thing to do His will, working in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.  But I urge you, brethren, bear with this word of exhortation, for I have written...

THE TELL OF TWO CITIZENS

“Blessed is the person who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers!  But his delight is in the Law of the Lord, and on His Law he meditates day and night.  He will be like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither; and in whatever he does, he prospers.  The...
