And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was shewed thee in the mount (Exodus 26:30).

Let my prayers be set forth before thee as incense ... (Psalms 141:2) What is it about the holy incense and the Golden Altar upon which it was offered that caused the psalmist to make this request?

For example, what are the various types of prayer? Are we praying properly, in a manner pleasing unto God? What qualifies as effective prayer and what does not? What type of mindset should we have? These questions and ...

What is the great narrative of Scripture? If you've been studying Scripture with a microscope (a few verses at a time), what are you missing? From a one-room Sunday school class-the lesson that's been downloaded over 8,000 times in 54 countries-comes A Rooster Once Crowed, A Commentary on the Greatest Story Ever Told.

For you were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: (Ephesians 5:8) You may know of it as the Golden Menorah, as the Golden Lampstand, or as (it is referred to in the KJV Bible) the Golden Candlestick. But by whatever name you choose to call it, this item of furniture serves as a beautiful representation of how the light of God is made manifest through His various earthly vessels – namely the written Word of God, Jesus Christ (the Word made flesh) and His Body (the Church). But how is this light accomplished? And what all is involved? The ...

**Amazon #1 Best Seller in the Systematic Theology category** What is the highest good in life that anyone can pursue? In Latin, there is a term summum bonum, which means “the highest good out of which all good flows.” Many pursue wisdom, social justice, wealth, power, or physical strength as the highest good in life. However, none of these compare to the benefits of knowing God. Listen to what the Lord said through the prophet Jeremiah: Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom or the strong man boast of his strength or the rich man boast of his riches, but let him who boasts boast ...

Are you one of many people out there who were born-again at some point in your life but never knew where you fit in to the Christian community, the body of Christ, the church, your adopted Heavenly Father's family?

What is anthropology? Anthropology comes from the Greek word anthropos which means man or humanity. Therefore, anthropology is the study of humans. It considers who we are and why we exist. In secular universities, the study is engaged primarily from a man-centered perspective; however, since God created humans and made them in his image, it is impossible to truly study humanity apart from God. It is from God that people derive their significance and purpose. Consequently, the study of anthropology is intensely practical. For us to know who we are and what to do with our lives, we must see ...

The idea that wealth is a sign of God's blessing, as taught in the prosperity gospel, is not supported by Scripture. Many of God's greatest servants were called to forsake material wealth in order to fully follow Christ. The message of the Gospel is not one of accumulating earthly riches but of denying oneself, taking up the cross, and following Jesus in the fellowship of His sufferings. Jesus Himself warned against the dangers of wealth, and throughout the Bible, God’s people were often required to set aside personal riches to fulfill His will. Jesus made it clear that following Him ...

Das Wort "evangelikal" wird oft unzureichend definiert und ist mit manchem Ballast beladen. So stellen sich einige sogar die Frage, ob sie diese Bezeichnung nicht ganz aufgeben sollten. Michael Reeves argumentiert anhand der Bibel und der Kirchengeschichte, dass es nicht notwendig ist, das Wort zu verwerfen. Christen müssen jedoch zu den Wurzeln des Begriffs – zum euangélion, dem Evangelium – zurückkehren und verstehen, was er tatsächlich bedeutet.
