... and having done everything, to stand firm.
Doctrines (posted Wednesday, February 28 2007) In the Old Testament, believers were frequently visited by someone called the Angel of the Lord. This manifestation was a means for Jehovah to send information to His followers, but unlike dreams or visions or prophecies, it was an actual physical personage.
Who or what was the Angel of the Lord?
Scriptures (posted Sunday, February 25 2007) Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment.

Jeremiah 2:19
Scriptures (posted Friday, February 16 2007) I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance.

Revelation 2:2-4
Doctrines (posted Tuesday, February 13 2007) One of the main analogies in the Bible is bread. The Exodus generation received bread from heaven, in the form of manna. Unleavened bread is constantly mentioned throughout scripture. Jesus taught that He is the Bread of Life. The Communion ritual involves taking a piece of bread.
What does all of this Biblical bread stand for?
Scriptures (posted Saturday, February 10 2007) With what shall I come before the LORD and bow down before the exalted God? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old? Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I offer my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
