Absolutely! Yes, Christians should support the death penalty. Capital punishment is ultimately about valuing life. "Capital punishment is designed to maintain and to emphasize and to establish the sanctity of life." - Martyn Lloyd Jones. God instituted the civil government whose principal task...

The Bible has much to say about foundations. In Psalm 11:3, the Bible says, “If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” In Matthew 7:24-27, the Lord Jesus illustrates (through a parable) the significance of building one’s house upon a solid foundation. In the parable, Jesus...

As for me, I’ve come to realise that it is only by the grace of God I’m able to temper any surge of emotions I feel with moderation and react appropriate in any given situation. Without God’s restraining Hand upon my life, I have no self-control. Many a time, I’m reminded of the saying, “there...

We’ve all experienced the consequences and the effects of human anger. We have all been angry at times in our own lives, and we’ve had people who were angry at us. Anger is real, and the ultimate source of it is God himself whose anger is always and everywhere just and justified. There are...

We have to be careful about falling into the trap that the Pharisees fell into with their legalistic approach to the sabbath day. But the fundamental concept, is, “Do we honour God with the sabbath day?” One of my favourite heroes of the faith is a man by the of Eric Henry Liddell. He was...

One of the most difficult injuries to bear is indeed the pain of false accusations. It is one of the most destructive and devastating things anyone could experience. Vindication is something we all cry out for when we are falsely accused. There is nothing wrong with having that desire to be...

People who think man controls the fate of the earth, don’t think much of God. In the end, this “wisdom” of men will prove to be foolishness. The whole earth and all of humanity will last exactly as long as God wills it, and not a moment more. Thus says the LORD, “Heaven is my throne, and the...

Being a kind person means that you are someone who is thoughtful and considerate of other people’s needs and feelings. A kind person is warm and cheerful towards other people. “Kindness is essentially goodness of heart that intends the very best for others.” – John MacArthur. Kindness is a very...

Integrity is defined as steadfast adherence to a moral code. Integrity means that you live by your conviction; it is practicing what you preach. Integrity comes from the word integral, which means whole or complete. Integrity is wholeness. Integrity is personality integrated in public or in...

Thanks for sharing such beautiful meaningful poem. Never heard of it before, until now :)

Submission is simply choosing to follow someone’s direction. As on the dance floor, it takes two to tango ― One person generally leads, the other follows. But there needs to be balance, trust, and mutual respect to make it work. Every Christian (single or married) at some point is called to...

Shame is defined as a painful feeling of humiliation or distress caused by the consciousness of wrong or foolish behaviour. Shame is said to be one the deepest of the “negative emotions,” a feeling we will do almost anything to avoid. Today, many people would admit to feeling shame if they are...

Lord Jesus, let every chain be broken from me, as I’m bound in Your grace, for Your yoke is easy Your burden is light. O Lord, may my heart always be set on your Kingdom. Break my heart for what breaks yours. Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there be...

"But is someone being kind and loving the Lord enough?" If he truly loves the Lord, then he will be able to love you as a result. So based on that, I think his love for the Lord should be more than enough for you regardless of all his flaws. However, I don't think you should force yourself to...

God created us for the ultimate priority of worshiping Him. It’s no accident that the longest book in the Bible – Psalms, is all about praising and worshiping God. “When we think about worship, we think about the ascribing of worth, excellence, majesty, and honour to our creator.” – R.C Sproul...
