Easter is a time when we reflect on the resurrection of Christ. This is a good thing for us to do, but do we really grasp the radical nature of the resurrection? I mean the disciples were with Christ and never seemed to have much confidence tha
There is no question that our God is a perfect and complete God. He is not one who is going to do something in a half hearted way. It would seem that as Christ enters Jerusalem that there is the assurance that Christ has actually won the favor
The Lord’s prayer is something that assures us that God is personal. He is not a God who redeems, and then He leaves us without being able to know HIm. So, we think that this prayer is encouraging because it proves that we can communicate with
One of the pillars of our faith is that we believe in Grace alone. This means that we receive grace without doing anything to deserve this grace. So, why does Matthew make it sound like our forgiveness is conditional? Matthew tells us that if w
When we think of prayer we think of prayer as being something that is reserved for spiritual struggles. We know that God is a spirit and so what can God know about bodies? So, it would seem logical that we would not bother God for our daily phy
Normally as people we do not want someone else to impose their will on us. If we allow someone else to impose their will this is a sign of weakness or failure on our part. Yet, in the Lord’s prayer we willingly request that the Lord’s will be d
When we survey Covenant History we can see that the kingdom has been long time coming, but supposedly has arrived at this point. Yet, when we get to the Lord’s prayer there is the request that we make that the Lord’s kingdom will come. When is
When we memorize the Lord’s prayer we use this strange language for the Lord to hallow His name. What does this mean that the Lord has to hallow His name? This word hallow means sanctify. If God is holy then why does He need to be sanctified? A
When Christ walked upon this earth Christ taught us how to pray. We open this prayer by praying to our Father in heaven. This is strange that we would pray to our Father in heaven because this makes Him sound so distant, distracted, and disconn
As Christians we believe that God knows all things. If it is true that God knows all things then why do we have to pray? Why do the disciples want Christ to teach them how to pray? I mean we can see many prayers in the Psalms so the disciples s
I think that many times when we live the Christian life we are surprised by how hard the life is to actually live. There are so many things out there that are so alluring. There are times when we might think that God loves us because we are ver
If you spread lies about someone in the world they can sue you for libel. This means that you have done damage to their reputation. Certainly, a lawsuit is something that deters us from spreading gossip. However, what is the motivation for a Ch
There is a segment in our economy that makes a living by securing homes, workplaces, and even individuals. This is a necessary evil in this age because man is sinful and steals from fellow man. We can hide in our homes and look down on the comm
There is a temptation to pick through the commandments as if they are merely a checklist. For instance if someone is single they might look at a commandment that forbids adultery and say that it does not matter. How can they commit adultery if
We have been told to respect people. We are reminded again and again to be considerate of other people around us. Why should we care about those around us? Really, is there any Biblical basis to care about people who are not in the Christian co
It seems that today many people are suspicious of individuals in authority. It seems that the expectation is that one has to question authority and rebel against authority to show that they are not going to be one of the herd. Ironically, this
Many times we do not associate Reformed Worship with something that we would call fun. In fact, some might say that it is downright boring compared to some other expressions of worship. Do we worship the way that we do because we are boring or
I remember being a kid and asking my parents why people swore on the Bible. It seems so strange to hold your hand on a book and swear that you will tell the truth. Why do we do that? Where do we see a precedent or an example of people doing thi
We most certainly believe that the name of God should not be mocked. He is the Lord who has created all things. We also know that people who make idols make a mockery of God’s name. How does the Lord deal with them? How is the Lord’s name tied
So often we can think that false worship is something that is an old problem. We can think that only the people who were simple wanted to make their idols. We are those who are more advanced than the people of old so this problem is not really
When we hear that the Lord does not want us to have any other gods this sounds rather strange. I mean if God is really god why should He be threatened by other gods? Besides what is the harm in trusting in things other than the Lord? If we are
There are several places in the New Testament where the saints are called to conform to Christ. Why are we reminded of this if we are secured by grace? Did God create us in such a way that we lack something? Did we lose something? What is so ri
The catechism asks a very important question, if we are delivered from our misery, merely of grace, through Christ, without any merit of ours, why must we still do good works? This is a very good question because there are exhortations in the N
Normally when we want to find some encouraging words from Christ we turn to the Gospels. I mean this is the place where Christ speaks, and where we can find warm words from our Savior. Who does not like that? Yet, we can find that the prophets
When we consider the Lord’s supper in some ways we can see this meal as a rather exclusive meal. I mean the only people who can eat of this meal are those who can examine themselves in light of Christ’s work. Is this meal only for believers som
