In this verse, the apostle affirms the divinity of Christ as not only Savior but Creator of all thingsin heaven, on earth, visible and invisible. All things came to be “in Him,” “through Him,” and “for Him.”

In Colossians 1:14, the apostle Paul gives to us an empathetic declaration of two things: 1) the one who paid the price for our redemption, and 2) the means of this redemption—death on the cross.

April 2026

In Colossians 1:12, Paul informs us that because of salvation, we have been granted an inheritance that is guaranteed because of Calvary and our faith being placed in Him.

March 2026

In Colossians 1:9-10, Paul’s desire for the Colossae Christians is that they “might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding,” and, “increasing in the knowledge of God.”

February 2026

In Colossians 1:9, the apostle begins by stating that he does not cease to pray for them. His prayer for them is that fruit would continue and that false doctrine would not be heeded but thrown aside

In these three verses, we are given some very important information that every believer needs to understand—information that will help us in our daily living for God.

Paul writes the epistle to the saints in Colossae, a city in Phrygia in the Roman province of Asia, which is now a part of modern Turkey, and about a hundred miles to the east of the city of Ephesus. The church there was founded by Epaphras, a disciple of Paul.

The story of Enoch is one of the most interesting stories found in the Bible. Actually, his story should be read and understood by all believers.

 I’ve said before that as a boy, I always knew that my dad was different. I couldn’t describe then exactly how he was different; it was more of something I sensed. But all these years later, I can say with surety that the something I sensed was God setting my Dad apart—apart from other men, other preachers, even other Bible scholars.

Abraham’s journey of faith had been long, and it was filled with great victories, great revelations, and also great failures, as it is with us all.

July 2025

In this story of Abraham and his petition before the Lord concerning the destruction of Sodom, we see the power of the righteous concerning their petitions before the Lord. Actually, this is a study in intercessory prayer.

The path of faith is not an easy path. The Lord gives direction but then Satan does everything he can to hinder and discourage the child of God.

April 2025

The Lord desires to show favor to all who follow Him, and Genesis 8:1-8 shows us the steps that we must take to have God’s favor.

March 2025

Last month, we dealt with progressive revelation as God revealed Himself to Abraham as El Shaddai, meaning “Almighty God.” This month, we want to look at the second part of Genesis 17:1, “walk before me, and be thou perfect.”

February 2025

Abraham was now ninety-nine years of age, and it had been about thirteen years since the Lord had spoken to him. No doubt that during those thirteen years, he thought Ishmael was the promised seed of God as Genesis 17:18 seems to imply.

January 2025

In the twelfth and fifteenth chapters of Genesis, we find what is known as the Abrahamic covenant. This covenant guaranteed the promise of the possession of land as well as the promise of a people to occupy the land, and the promise of blessing, which would be fulfilled in its truest sense in the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.

December 2024

As we study the life of Abraham, we notice that Abraham’s knowledge of God was progressive, meaning that Abraham did not have complete knowledge concerning God and God’s will for his life. Such is our experience with God. 

November 2024

This verse is one of the most important verses in all the Bible. In its simplicity, it is the doctrine of justification by faith. This truth is so great that Paul would center his teaching on the meaning of the new covenant around this one verse (Rom. 4:3).

October 2024

In Genesis 14, we find Abraham going to war against several mighty pagan kings. Though Abraham defeats them, still there was the threat of reprisal that weighed heavy upon his heart. We know this because of what the Lord said to him, which we will discuss shortly.

September 2024

Now we look at Abraham’s restoration. The story of the Bible is the story of restoration and reconciliation—God restoring man, reconciling man back to Himself.
