Most of you have heard the song from Disney’s 1933 cartoon The Three Little Pigs as the pigs sang, “Who’s afraid of the big, bad wolf, the big bad wolf.” Of course, we don’t have to worry about a fictional character like the big, bad wolf, but there are some “big, bad boogie men” in the Bible that we do need to be weary of. There’s the devil, his demons, the antichrist, and as John will tell us in today’s […]

I read a story awhile back about a student who was not allowed to graduate from a conservative Christian college because he was caught with his arm around his finance shortly before the ceremony. Public expression of love was forbidden at that college, even if the person was expressing it to his wife or fiancé, because the founders of the college believed that such acts were “worldly,” and thus were forbidden in the Bible. And John will warn us in […]

Ram Singh once wrote, “People make mistakes. It’s all part of growing up, and you never really stop growing.” I don’t know that I agree with that statement—especially on a spiritual level– because some people remain stagnant their whole lives, because they don’t learn from their mistakes; they just keep repeating them. In today’s text, John is going to give us a growth chart that will allow us to measure just how far we have come spiritually since we received […]

The Peanuts character Linus once quipped, “I love mankind; it’s people I can’t stand!” It’s easy to run around talking about how we love other people, but truly showing love to one another on an individual basis is much more difficult, especially with those we don’t like. In today’s text, John gives us a litmus test for salvation. How do we know if we are saved? If we love one another-especially those people we aren’t so fond of. He will […]

One day British newspaper publisher and politician William Beverbook was in the washroom of Parliament when he ran into Edward Heath, a member of Parliament, whom he had trashed the day before in an editorial. When Beverbook saw Heath, he apologized by saying, “I’ve been thinking it over, and what I said about you in my editorial was wrong, so here and now, I wish to apologize.” “Very well, Heath responded, “But the next time, please insult me in the […]

In today’s text, the apostle John will make one of the most profound statements in the Bible using just two little Greek words—THEOS PHOTOS—God is light. Light is something we all are familiar with, but the artificial lights we have in our homes, or even the sunlight that lights up the outdoors, are something altogether different from the light of God. We will study the aspects of God’s light in today’s lesson and also learn some of the important applications […]

We begin a new study today in 1 John. It’s a book that has been a great source of comfort and strength for millions of Christians over the centuries. In fact, John tells us himself that the main reason he wrote the book is that our joy might be full. And God doesn’t just want us to have cups that are full, He wants us to have so much joy that it overflows to others. John will show us how […]

The Greeks had a race where the winner wasn’t the runner who came to the finish line first. The winner was the runner who finished with his torch still lit. Winners in the Christian race of life are certainly not the ones who finish first, but the ones who finish with their light of faith still lit. In today’s text, Peter will explain to us just how we can run the Christian life in faithfulness to the Lord. For the […]

We are told on several occasions in the Bible that we should be longing for the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ—and I think most of us do. But have you ever pondered why God delays His coming and His judgment on a wicked world. People have wondered about that for centuries. But just think if he had come in the Nineteenth Century, none of us would be saved. As Peter will remind us in today’s text, the reason […]

Kierkegaard, the great Danish philosopher, wrote a parable about the state of mankind at end of time. He likened it to a theatre where a long variety show is taking place, and the audience applauds each amazing act. Then suddenly near the end of the show the theatre catches on fire, and the manager comes and tells the audience that they must leave in an orderly fashion. But the audience thinks the warning is just part of the act and […]
