Ephesians 5:22 and Colossians 3:18 commands, “Wives submit to your husbands as is fitting in the Lord,” and Wives are commanded to submit to their husbands: “Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord,” and 1 Peter 3:1 commands, “Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands, so that even if some do […]
Substitutionary atonement refers to Jesus dying in the place of sinners. The Bible teaches that all men are sinners (Romans 3:23), and the punishment for sin is death (Romans 6:23). Romans 6:10 says, “For the death Jesus died he died to sin, once for all.” There must be a death for our sins, but God […]
Looking at Abraham’s obedience in sacrificing his son, Isaac, can be discouraging. We doubt that we could be like him if given a a test of such magnitude. But God prepared Abraham for the test in Genesis 22, and it should be an encouragement that He also prepares us for the trials and tests we […]

My only sibling, Jason, was fourteen months […]

Centuries later, Jesus revealed Himself to be the reality and substance of Job’s words. Job Needed a Mediator He […]
Paul asked, “Have [the Jews] stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not!” (Romans 11:11a). Stumbling is not the same as falling, and we can see the difference between the two by considering two men who had much in common. Who does this describe? A well-known man received a unique opportunity when Jesus asked him to […]
Job is the New Testament example of a persevering saint. He demonstrates that perseverance doesn’t mean perfection! James 5:11b says, “You have heard of the perseverance of Job.” How did he persevere? He persevered the same way everyone perseveres—by maintaining faith in God.
