The Kingdom of God – An important Element of the Gospel The world has been successively ruled by kingdoms. From a biblical perspective we see this clearly outlined by Daniel as he explains to the Babylonian king the contents of the king’s dream. Daniel told Nebuchadnezzar, “…For the God of heaven has given you a…

Greetings, Gridlock in the physical realm, such as we see within politics today, more often than not is deadlock. Nothing will change until a compromise is struck. And compromise, by its nature, inevitably leads to the further denigration of standards that, at one time, might have been called godly. Chaos, stress and disorder are the…

His strengths and weaknesses are laid bare for us to see. The overall sense that we gain from his life is that he was a man after God’s own heart (Acts 13:22). This tells us a…

Greetings, I was thinking about unity and where it comes from and what unity is anyway. A definition is: something joined as a whole. We all crave more unity. We would like to see our nations, our local communities and particularly our churches and families more united. Unfortunately, we live in an environment where some…

GOSPEL – The Good News of Salvation A powerful message seen throughout the Bible is the message of salvation. The Bible introduces us to a perfect creation. We are told that in God’s estimation it was “very good.” God rebuilt this perfect earthly environment out of the destruction caused by Satan’s rebellion. The pinnacle of…

–> I wanted to take a few minutes and provide an update on the Church of God – The Father’s Call organization structure. One of the strong beliefs that we have held as we began organizing as a group, was the need to be very careful of mixing the normal business and administration of the…

–> Greetings, I recently read an interesting observation in regard to human conduct. “We have the liberal freedom of unrestrained personal behavior.” This is an intriguing statement for members of God’s Church to consider. Liberal freedom is usually applied to progressive political reform emphasizing individual rights and liberties. It is most commonly presented as the…

–> Greetings, Perspective is a marvelous thing, isn’t it? One of its many definitions is: a true understanding of the relative importance of things; a sense of proportion. If we hear a child or a grandchild cry in a particular way, we can know if it’s a cry of pain or fear, anger, attention or…

–> Greetings, Recently I have had the opportunity to visit several church areas and spend time with a number of members. Many are experiencing stressful trials and difficult circumstances in their lives. We are reminded by some of the apostle Paul’s comments in his letters that there is nothing new in this. Paul began his…

–> What’s in the news? Different people will have different answers to that. You may be the type who never watches or listens to the news (I know some for whom it is just over-whelming to do so). You may be someone who gets most of their news from sporadic mentions in other media. Possibly…

–> Greetings, The gospel is a rich, complete and compelling message. This update looks at one aspect of the gospel message. In understanding the gospel we have much for which to be thankful. We will be sharing other aspects of the gospel in due course. GOSPEL – A Message of Hope Our world could use…

–> Greetings, It would appear from the daily events which unfold around us, both locally and internationally, that human nature is becoming more and more unrestrained. If we define human nature as the works of the flesh, then we see a pattern of behavior that fits these categories. For example, sexual immorality, hatred, contentions, outbursts…

inney and I addressed a question we received on the subject of why we as a Church group have not been more specific about appropriate dress and grooming for services and on the use of makeup. We thought it might be helpful to share the main part of our response. I would like to preface…
