Words can have different meanings. To 'know' someone, for example, can mean "to simply be familiar" with someone or it can mean "to have a close relationship" with them and everything in between. The same gamut can be seen in a word like 'belief' and 'faith.' All the spies had belief and faith in God — meaning they were confident of His existence. But only two spies had a belief and faith that took them to the next level — to trust in Him and to obey Him. God asked the question, "how long will they refuse to believe in…
Years ago I was asked to teach a class on 1 Timothy 6 for a congregation that I was visiting. We read of Jesus Christ, "the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone has immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see" (vv. 15-16).

“God does not love this world,” says Louis Farrakhan. Apparently, that’s his version of John 3:16—but more on this later. Perhaps the reader has heard Farrakhan’s name before. Wikipedia explains: The Million Man March was a large gathering of African-American men in Washington, D.C., on October 16, 1995. Called by Louis Farrakhan, it was held […]
