The High Places (Part Two)

CGG Weekly by David C. Grabbe

King Jehoash (or Joash) of Judah, though he overcame much and did many good things, did not quite have the fortitude to rid the kingdom of its high places.


Three Missing Kings (Part One)

'Personal' from John W. Ritenbaugh

Jesus Christ's genealogy in Matthew's gospel leaves out three kings. But which ones are excluded, and what does their absence teach us?


A Different Kind of Savior

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

The Jews were looking for a military leader like Jehu, a hasty, callous, impetuous man with a temper, bent totally on eradicating the legacy of Jezebel.


Jehoshaphat

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

After several catastrophes, Jehoshaphat finally became convinced that any decision without God in the picture is patently stupid.


Why 153 Fish? (Part Three)

CGG Weekly by David C. Grabbe

Why did Jesus provide precisely 153 fish? Few commentaries suggest any explanation for the number, and fewer still advance a theory of any substance.


Why Three Kings Are Missing From Matthew 1

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Joash, Amaziah, and Uzziah are kept out of Christ's genealogy. Although they started out well, their hearts were turned away by the end of their lives.


Hebrews (Part Nine)

Sermon/Bible Study by John W. Ritenbaugh

After the change from the Aaronic to the Melchizedek priesthood, it was also necessary to change the Covenant. The flaw was not the law, but the heart.


Faith and Healing (Part Three)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

The Bible is replete with individuals applying physical remedies (balms, poultices, as well as a competent physician's counsel) in tandem with trusting God.


Intimacy with Christ (Part Four)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

We don't really know something unless we have experienced it. Knowing God manifests itself in the way one lives, reflecting faithfulness and obedience.


Why 153?

Sermonette by David C. Grabbe

The first sign in the book of John corrected the physical need for wine; the eighth sign of 153 fish corrected a spiritual need on the part of God's people.


Who Is the God of Medicine?

Commentary by Martin G. Collins

Very few pharmaceutical products are based on scientific merit; marketing and profit drive the development, production and distribution of these substances.


Faith in the Healer

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

We must establish an iron clad trust in God for spiritual matters, including healing, rather than having a misguided trust in self or other human beings.
