The words of the angel of the Lord unto Gideon affirmed God’s choice to deliver Israel, but also a great account from scripture that answers many questions of doubt today.

While a book of brevity, 2 John has plenty to say on avoiding error. By walking in truth, one is prepared to know and avoid error.

The sweet hymn reminds us “How beautiful heaven must be.” That beauty will be for those living for Christ here in looking forward to what is there.

Throughout the Bible, a lamb was a symbol of sacrifice, but when it came to Christ, THE lamb of God, He was the sacrifice for man’s salvation.

Everyone understands the importance of a good foundation—for houses, buildings and yes, even life. Christ is THE Foundation on which ALL should build.

God’s salvation through Christ is not common as in dirty, but salvation that all may obey, walk and have much in common with “the faith which was once for all delivered…” Amen!

Any Bible student is thrilled to read Joseph’s life and to see how God used Joseph in the low moments raising him to greater heights to provide others on His behalf…and how God can use others.

How thankful one can reach for the Bible and see the beautiful teaching of the grace of God; the faith of man and faith expressed by man’s actions in serving God.

The past fifteen years have witnessed tremendous growth in escape rooms and their popularity. One seeks clues, follows and sees the way of escape. God has provided for us a better way of escape, friends. Will we follow the “clues?”

Can you imagine anyone objecting to mercy by refusing to extend mercy? We may want it, but are we one to grant mercy to others. We look closer at a parable of Jesus about mercy.

Speaking of Christ, “And He is the Head of the body, the church…” What a powerful scripture, yet simple and easy to embrace. Head, Body, Church—beautiful!

If anyone declines mercy, something is wrong. We all need mercy and we need to extend mercy. A special parable of our Lord teaches us the power of mercy.

How thankful for God’s grace unto everyone! Sadly not everyone will accept His grace, but for those that do there is nothing better.

The apostle Paul speaks of God’s goodness and severity (Rom. 11:22). One does not want to think about the wrath and vengeance of God, but we must know His word to avoid His wrath.

We make choices every day; some good and some not so good. Let’s learn of three Biblical characters and their choices to be reminded of making good choices.
