We consider the mistakes of the first generation of inhabitants of Canaan, who gave their children to marry the Canaanites. There is no quarter for the command of God to not be unequally yoked to unbelievers, which will only be a thorn in the eyes to God’s children who don’t heed the warning of their […]

We study the original example of justification by faith, that Abram believed the promise of God and felt the assurance of peace in his heart by trusting God.

One of the most contrary to the world examples of how categorically different the kingdom of God is that we are called to love our enemies, to bless those that curse us, and to pray for those that despitefully use us. We are a great witness to Jesus Christ when we respond in the right […]

We see from the negative example of Lot the importance of four of life’s most important decisions: where to live, where to work, where to worship, and who to marry. Lot’s original decision to pitch his tent towards Sodom was based solely by his eyes, not a priority of worship and fellowship with the friend […]
