Matthew, Mark, and Luke are synoptic in portraying the savior’s humanity in different aspects with his deity. Since Mark presents the savior as a slave, he does not tell his genealogy and status, because the ancestry of a slave is not worthy of note. Furthermore, in contrast to Matthew, who presents to us the savior’s marvelous teachings and parables concerning the heavenly kingdom, and John, who presents his profound revelations of the divine truths, Mark’s intention is not to impress us with the slave’s wonderful words, but with his excellent deeds in his gospel service.

In the spring of 2020, Christians in North Carolina began to pray for a spiritual awakening. It began in Marble, NC, with a 95-year-old preacher named Fred Lunsford, who felt God extended his days to pray for America. He traveled two miles daily to pray in his wife’s prayer garden at the bottom of Lighthouse Mountain.

The book of Isaiah is considered by the Jews to be the most important of all the prophecies, not only for its volume but also for the content found within it. It was separated from the rest of the prophetical books into its own scroll. Apparently, the Lord feels like it is very important too because it is quoted directly at least sixty-six times in the New Testament and twenty of the twenty-seven New Testament writers reinforce their message by quoting Isaiah. Its value can be illustrated by a number of things. First, only Psalms contains more predictions of Christ than does Isaiah. In ...

This epistle is considered the sweetest of the epistles written by the apostle Paul. It is as though an essay sent by him to the church in all eras, and to every believer in all times, exhorting them to live perpetually exulting, despite any situation prevailing around them; through practicing the new life that knows no idleness, but is on an un-ceasing motion in Christ Jesus.

In Twisted Unto Destruction, Donald J. Johnson (Convinced, Unprotected) shows how ditching the Church in favor of private Bible interpretation has also enabled some of the modern world’s worst crimes and vices. Once an Evangelical Protestant who took sola scriptura for granted, Johnson came to realize that setting ourselves up as little Magisteriums—whose opinions on the Bible’s meaning have to be as valid as anyone else’s—not only leads to endless splintering, but makes it possible to use Scripture to justify anything.
