I sometimes see T-shirts, bumper stickers, and billboards with the slogan, “Christ is the answer.” But what questions is He the answer to? Consider a few.
How many paths to God are there? Christ is the answer. “I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6).
Does God really love me? Christ is the answer. “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).

As the season of gift giving approaches, we hear people asking the question “What gift would you like this year?” Usually this inquiry comes from parents or grandparents and it is usually addressed to the youngsters among us. But in I Kings 3:5-15 we find the account a young man, Solomon, who at no more than 18 finds himself being asked by God, “What shall I give you?”
Think on that for a moment. The creator of the universe asking you what would you like from Him. What would be your response? Well, Solomon, the third son of King…

A survey on teen ethics asked nearly 30,000 high school students about their moral standards and behavior. Some of the results: 25% admitted to stealing from parents, relatives or friends during the past year; 33% said they had shoplifted; and 64% said they had cheated on at least one test. But most interesting of all, 77% of those students said they believe they are “better than most people” when it comes to doing the right thing!
Whether teens or adults, it’s easy to be blind to our own faults. And even when…

Jude 16 These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts;
Throughout the scriptures there is an attitude that is always condemned by God. It is the attitude of being a gripping, grumbling, complaining , murmuring, negative person.
1 Corinthians 10:10 nor complain, as some of them also complained, and were destroyed by the destroyer.
So what exactly does it mean to be a complainer or a murmurer? I do not believe we are expected to enjoy suffering. When Jesus was…

Best Friends
Proverbs 18:24 there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
One of the greatest blessings of our life is our friends. A friend is someone who will stick close to you even in difficult times. Sunshine friends are not true friends at all. They will tell you they are your friends and be glad to be with you when everything is going great. However, when times become difficult for you they will be gone before you know it.

Matthew 2:23 says that Joseph, Mary, and the young child Jesus “came and resided in a city called Nazareth, that what was spoken through the prophets might be fulfilled, ‘He shall be called a Nazarene.’” This verse has troubled many Bible students because the statement, “He shall be called a Nazarene” is not found anywhere in the Old Testament. What are we to make of this?
One clue is Matthew’s use of the plural “the prophets.” The gospel writers often quote from Old Testament prophets, but the typical wording is: “that what…
