ما هي الصفات التي يريدنا الله أن نطورها في أولادنا؟ لا داعي للتخمين، فالكتاب المقدس يخبرنا تحديدًا .

فيما يتعلق بموضوع معرفة ما في الذهن، هذا رأيي. أولاً، إننا نعرف أن الشياطين ليست كليّة العلم، لأنها مجرد ملائكة، ومخلوقات محدودة، والملائكة لا تعرف الكثير من الأمور، بما في ذلك توقيت عودة المسيح (مرقس 13: 32). 

Tomorrow, November 22, 2018, is the 55th anniversary of the death not only of John F. Kennedy, but also of C. S. Lewis. If someone asked me which historical figures I’d like to hear answer questions, one of them would be C. S. Lewis. Providentially, he had such a session on April 18, 1944.

We’re continually bombarded by “news” (sometimes more sensational than informative) that dwells on the sufferings and tragedies of life. This unceasing avalanche of bad news, as well as rampant political tribalism, suspicion, and critical opinions, can quickly bury what Scripture calls “the good news of happiness” (Isaiah 52:7).

Men, one of the best possible things we can do for our wives and children (and ourselves!) is to share with them great resources to help them grow in Christ.

Embora as Escrituras não digam tanto quanto gostaríamos sobre o controle de circunstâncias, ela diz muito mais do que gostaríamos sobre o domínio próprio. 

As Escrituras dizem que Satanás anda ao derredor como um leão que ruge, procurando alguém que possa devorar. Ele nos quer sob escravidão; Cristo nos quer livres para viver em obediência. A desobediência é contagiosa, mas a obediência também o é. Quanto mais fazemos isto, mais se torna o padrão de nossas vidas.

The “high places” is a shorthand term for places of pagan worship, usually (though not always) on hills or mountains to bring them closer to their false gods. They were centers of idolatry. The greatest time of compromise for God’s people in the Old Testament, the Israelites, was when in addition to worshiping Yahweh, the only true God, they worshipped false gods too.

In January 2018, Nanci Alcorn was diagnosed with colon cancer, and has since undergone several months of treatment. In this interview, Randy shares what the Lord has been doing in their lives during this challenging season.
