The New Covenant

A covenant is more than a contract. Contracts are about “I.” Covenants are about “we.” Covenants are moral commitments sustained by loyalty and fidelity. The Old Covenant included endless sacrifices that looked forward to the New Covenant and the final sacrifice of Jesus Christ. At communion we look back at Christ’s suffering and sacrifice and...

The Problem of Pain

If God is all-powerful and all-loving, why does he let people suffer and die? When he lived on the earth, he calmed the ocean and raised the dead. If he is present with us now, why doesn’t he do the same things he did back then? Why does it seem that he is sleeping? Joseph... Read More

How did he resist temptation? He knew God was with him. God had been with him even when his brothers threw... Read More

God’s Answer to Sin – The Broken Body & Shed Blood of Christ

The broken body and shed blood of Christ, which we celebrate when we partake of the Lord’s Supper, is God’s solution for sin. We read of two primary sin problems in the Bible: universal sin that is inherited by all the descendants of Adam, and individual sins. The Bible nowhere says that people are delivered... Read More
