Come, I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.” But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?” He said, “But I will be with you, and this shall beContinue reading “Exodus 3: 10-22….A tough Assignment!”

1 Corinthians 15: 50-58….Mystery and Victory
I tell you this, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet willContinue reading “1 Corinthians 15: 50-58….Mystery and Victory”
1 Corinthians 15: 35-49….The Resurrection Body
But someone will ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?” You foolish person! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies. And what you sow is not the body that is to be, but a bare kernel, perhaps of wheat or of some other grain.Continue reading “1 Corinthians 15: 35-49….The Resurrection Body”
1 Corinthians 15: 17-28….A precis of what is to come!
And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied. Comment: This is where we ended writingContinue reading “1 Corinthians 15: 17-28….A precis of what is to come!”
1 Corinthians 15: 12-19….Christianity is futile without the Resurrection of the Dead
Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and yourContinue reading “1 Corinthians 15: 12-19….Christianity is futile without the Resurrection of the Dead”
1 Corinthians 15:1-8….The gospel in a ‘nut-shell’
Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: thatContinue reading “1 Corinthians 15:1-8….The gospel in a ‘nut-shell’”
1 Corinthians 9: 17-27….As fit as I can be!
For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward, but if not of my own will, I am still entrusted with a stewardship. What then is my reward? That in my preaching I may present the gospel free of charge, so as not to make full use of my right inContinue reading “1 Corinthians 9: 17-27….As fit as I can be!”
1 Corinthians 9: 9-16….Woe to me!
For it is written in the Law of Moses, “You shall not muzzle an ox when it treads out the grain.” Is it for oxen that God is concerned? Does he not certainly speak for our sake? It was written for our sake, because the plowman should plow in hope and the thresher thresh inContinue reading “1 Corinthians 9: 9-16….Woe to me!”
1 Corinthians 9: 1-10a….Who is more important? You or me?
Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are not you my workmanship in the Lord? If to others I am not an apostle, at least I am to you, for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.This is my defense to those whoContinue reading “1 Corinthians 9: 1-10a….Who is more important? You or me?”
Psalms 68: 17-26….The Psalmist’s eyes and thoughts wander!
17 The chariots of God are twice ten thousand,thousands upon thousands;the Lord is among them; Sinai is now in the sanctuary. Comment: God is a powerful God, don’t underestimate Him!18 You ascended on high,leading a host of captives in your trainand receiving gifts among men,even among the rebellious, that the LORD God may dwell there.Continue reading “Psalms 68: 17-26….The Psalmist’s eyes and thoughts wander!”
