Jer. 8:22; 46:11 Introduction The Covid-19 pandemic of 2019 and the resultant crisis was something to remember. Many were engaged in the search for the cure (or at least a vaccine). One of them was Gilead Sciences, a pharmaceutical company established in 1987. It was this company that developed Remdesivir. Gilead Gilead Sciences is not…
We have been talking about Joseph four times so far. Today we will make it the fifth by looking into the similarities between him and Jesus Christ. We see the image of Jesus throughout the Bible. This similarity, or a type of Jesus in Joseph is only one instance. You see, the Bible is in…
Gen. 18:16-33 First of all. A very Happy New Year 2026. As Sodom was about to be destroyed, Abraham asked the Lord, “Will you indeed sweep away the righteous with the wicked?” (Gen. 18:23). He was interceding for Lot and the righteous of Sodom. Because of this, Lot and his family were saved from destruction….
Genesis 11:1–9 When humankind planned to build the Tower of Babel, both their foundation and their motives were flawed. They sought to reach the heavens, make a name for themselves, prevent their dispersion, and—according to some—to protect themselves from another flood. Their efforts ended in complete failure. As we build our own lives, we must…
John 16:33 “In the world you face persecution. But take courage; I have conquered the world.” “In the world you face troubles/persecution” The world is in trouble, and everyone in it from: “But take courage, I have conquered the world” Our Lord Jesus Christ tells us to have courage because he has overcome the world…
Malachi 1:1-14; Luke 21:1-4 The Israelites and their priests were rebuked by the Lord for “offering polluted food on my altar, [offering] blind animals… those that are lame or sick…” (Mal. 1:7-8). This is completely in contravention to the provisions of Deuteronomy 17:1. Therefore, the Lord said to them, “I have no pleasure in you……
“Their eyes were kept from recognizing him.” Luke 24:16 The two disciples would have recognised Jesus as they walked with him towards Emmaus, but they didn’t. They ought to recognise him instantly, considering all the days they spent with him; but they didn’t. Today, do we recognise him? As Christians, we ought to know him,…
1 Sam. 30:13 Ziklag was razed to the ground. All the livestock and the wives and children of David and his men had been taken captive by the Amalekites. While they were in pursuit of the enemy, Davd and his men met a man. David asked him, “To whom do you belong?” (1 Sam. 30:13)….
He is not God of the dead, but of the living, for all live to Him. Lk. 20:38 The resurrection of Jesus certainly proves His divinity. Jesus is the life, the God of the living. During His ministries, everywhere He went, he healed the sick and raised the dead. Where He is, death cannot be….
Jesus rose again. Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went into the tomb. They were told by an angel, “Do not be afraid” (Matt. 28:5). They met Jesus who also told them, “Do not be afraid” (Matt. 28:10). Jesus came to the disciples and told them, “Peace be with you” (Jn. 20:19). Again, He said,…
