The post Having A God Given Vision (Nehemiah 2) appeared first on Philadelphia Baptist Church .

When Jesus was born, Israel had been without any new, specific revelation from God for nearly 400 years. Many were probably tempted to think that God had forgotten them or would never speak to them again. But some continued to have faith in God. One was a man named Simeon, whom we read about in […] The post Praise God for Promises Kept (Luke 2:25-38) appeared first on Philadelphia Baptist Ch...

“This Little Light of Mine” is one of my favorite children’s songs. I literally do not remember learning it. It seems like I have known it all my life. The song is based on Matthew 5:14-16. Jesus said, “Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick…Let your […] The post Let It Shine (Matthew 5:14-16) appeared first on Philadelphia Baptist Church .

What is the first thing that you think of when someone brings up Thomas, the disciple of Jesus? Does the phrase “Doubting Thomas” come to mind? Thomas was one of the original disciples, an eyewitness to the resurrected Jesus, and was martyred for the gospel. But, whether it is fair or not, we remember him […] The post Don’t Be A Doubter (John 20:29) appeared first on Philadelphia Baptist Chu...

When God created man, he gave him a job to do. Adam was to be the tender of the Garden of Eden and the overseer of creation. That work was pleasant and enjoyable until sin entered the picture. As a consequence of man’s sin, God cursed the earth so that it no longer easily yielded […] The post Laboring By Grace appeared first on Philadelphia Baptist Church .

The Bible employs a range of illustrations to help us comprehend key aspects of the Christian life. Jesus drew from agriculture, fishing, weather, current events, finances, and many other commonly understood topics to illustrate spiritual truth.

Living in a sin-cursed world means that we are often the victims of other people’s sin. When someone commits an injustice against us, we usually feel a sense of righteous anger. A wrong has been committed, and it needs to be made right. But how we go about making it right makes a big difference.

There is such a thing as righteous anger, but we are rarely angry in a righteous way. Most of the time, human anger is unrighteous, selfish anger. This sinful anger creates a host of problems in our lives and hinders the work of the Holy Spirit in us. As James 1:19-20 says, “Wherefore, my beloved […] The post The Danger of Anger (Genesis 4) appeared first on Philadelphia Baptist Church .

Do you look forward to the day when you will see God in person? If you are saved, then you should. What we see on earth so often leads to frustration and disappointment. King David experiences this, as oftentimes his enemies seemed to be enjoying life while he was struggling along. He had to remind […] The post The Likeness of God (Psalm 17:15) appeared first on Philadelphia Baptist Church .

In Luke 10:25-37, Jesus’ Parable of the Good Samaritan answers a lawyer’s question, “and who is my neighbor?” A man, beaten, robbed, and left half dead, is passed by those expected to help-a priest and a Levite. Yet a Samaritan, despised by many, saw his desperate need, stopped, and sacrificed time and resources to save […] The post The Samaritan, How To Be A Real Her...

Parenting is one of the hardest jobs on earth. Children do not come with a user manual that tells you how to troubleshoot their problems and keep them functioning properly. Most of what we learn about parenting, we learn by observation and by trial and error. Sometimes it feels like more error than trial. It […] The post Fatherly Follies (I Samuel 3) appeared first on Philadelphia Baptist Ch...

Some years ago, I came across an interesting trend in the corporate world, especially among technology companies. Companies were hiring people to promote their brand or products and referring to them as “evangelists.” I grew up in church, and until then, I had never heard anyone other than a traveling preacher referred to as an […] The post Soul Winning Words: Evangelize (Acts 8:1-4) appeare...
