Noble women of the Bible also functioned in God's service in one capacity or another. This is what 'ministry' is - serving the Lord. This book looks at all the notable women of the Bible and how God used them. What about the fivefold ministry (Ephesians 4:11-13)? Can women serve the Lord as evangelists, teachers or pastors? What's the Bible say? Why can't women serve in God's kingdom and be ministers? After all, were Aimee Semple McPherson and...

You hear a lot about "grace" in Christian circles, but what is it exactly? In the Bible it's translated from the Greek word charis, which means "graciousness, favor." Consider a teacher's pet in a positive sense. Why is a certain student the "teacher's pet"? Simple: That student has the teacher's FAVOR. Now apply this to the LORD's favor, that is, God's grace. Just as the teacher's pet has the teacher's favor so you and I can have God's favor....

There's a huge difference between dealing with personal offenses as opposed to severe criminal acts. Tackling personal offenses is a matter of peace between people in the Church, as well as society in general (relatives, co-workers, neighbors, etc.), whereas your response to criminal acts is a matter of protecting yourself & others from wicked thugs and acquiring justice. The New Testament provides detailed instructions on how to handle PERSON...

Are New Covenant believers obligated to obey the Mosaic Law (the Torah) as some insist? Should we keep the Saturday Sabbath? Should we limit our diet to kosher foods? Should we observe the Israelite Holy-days, like Passover and the other feasts? Should we get circumcised?The answer is an emphatic "No." The Scriptures clearly show that New Testament believers are NOT under the Law. The ceremonial and dietary laws have ceased because they were f...

Hell is a hot topic! The Bible teaches that unredeemed people will stand before God on Judgment Day and those whose names are not found in the Book of Life will be cast into the lake of fire. The Bible calls this the "second death." What is the nature of this second death? Will these people suffer fiery torment forever and ever, as has been taught since the time of Augustine in the early 5th Century? Or will they be BURNED UP-literally destroy...

The Bible reveals that there are four stages of spiritual growth. Understanding them is fascinating and will help you SEE where you ARE spiritually and where you need to go. It will also help you to locate where others are so you can understand their position and relate to them accordingly. STAGE ONE is actually a stage of spiritual darkness where the individual is separate from God and in need of spiritual regeneration. The next three stages ...

The Bible declares: "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery." If this is so, why are so many believers in bondage to dos & don'ts religion? Religious bondage is legal-ism, which is counterfeit Christianity. Jesus Christ said that "the truth will set you free" and his purpose is to "give life to the full, " but LEGALISM DOES THE EXACT OPPOSITE - it puts p...

Did you ever wonder about angels-what they are and what's their purpose? The Bible says that heavenly angels are here to serve people, and each person has angels assigned to him or her. One of their functions is to protect us, another is to assist us in what we do. But what is our responsibility in angels ministering to us in these ways? What about fallen angels? What's their purpose? How do we keep from being oppressed or hindered by them? Wh...

Every believer needs to establish a sound spiritual FOUNDATION because it sets the groundwork for their entire walk with the LORD. Just as a good foundation is required for a sound building, so a proper spiritual foundation is vital for a victorious Christian life. Those who fail to lay a proper foundation are doomed to spiritual immaturity because they have nothing by which to judge what is right or wrong, scriptural or unscriptural, wise or ...

What happens to the soul & spirit of unsaved people when they die? This refers to anyone who has not experienced spiritual regeneration through the gospel, which includes Old Testament saints. The Bible shows that the souls of these people go to (or went to) Sheol at the point of physical decease. Sheol corresponds to Hades. These souls will be resurrected from Sheol one day (Revelation 20:11-15), which is why Sheol/Hades is described as the "...
