Built Upon the Truth of Resurrection

Bob Christopher, Bob Davis, Richard Peifer

Matthew 16 is one of my favorite passages. This takes place near Caesarea Philippi. Jesus asks the question: "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?" ... And then Jesus asks the disciples who do you say I am? "Simon Peter replied, 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.'" Our hope is built upon the truth of resurrection.

The Grace Guide to Marriage - part 16

Bob Christopher, Bob Davis, Richard Peifer

In a follow up discussion about divorce and remarriage, we explore the issue of remarriage. Is there hope for another relationship built on the foundation of Christ Jesus? The answer is a resounding "yes". You are not unworthy because of divorce - you are a child of God who has been divorced. First, figure out what went wrong in your marriage. Go to the Lord and ask him to reveal to you the mistakes that were made. If you find someone you are interested in, it is vitally important to first build a friendship and leave the results up to the Lord. People who are content in Christ can experience the oneness God desires for marriage. Let your remarriage be a reflection of the very love of Christ, the church. With Christ, there is great hope.

The Full Armor of God

Bob Christopher, Bob Davis, Richard Peifer

We are talking about winning at spiritual warfare. We will sometimes clash with the world and feel pressured to conform. But, we have the opportunity to stand firm. Ephesians 6:11-13 encourages us to "put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand." When you are standing in Christ, you have a sure foundation to withstand whatever the enemy uses to attack you. Standing in truth, being strong in the Lord, we will withstand every onslaught. Stand firm.
