Sponsor A Child Through World Vision


A lamb of God...

In Bible Study we learn to give...
please consider giving Jesus a cup of cool water and bread... or covering His naked body.

Sponsor a Child and Donate to Disaster Relief through World Vision: "Who Is World Vision?
We are a Christian relief and development organization dedicated to helping children and their communities worldwide reach their full potential by tackling the causes of poverty. We serve the world's poor — regardless of a person's religion, race, ethnicity, or gender."

Study Your Bible... Why?

Let the Word of God be alive in you. Bible study is merely taking in the Living Word of God. Without it... you starve. The beautiful moment arrives as the Holy Spirit speaks in your heart... a reminder of a scripture in the moment of need.

As God says in His Word, "I shall write my Word on the table of your heart". And Jesus being the Word (John 1)... as He says, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. He that hears Me and opens the door... I will come in and 'sup' (dine) with him."

Far be it from me to understand the depth of all this, but the Word of God is clear, even to a little child. Let me paint an analogy, of sorts.

You invite Jesus in. He sits with you at the kitchen table (in your heart). He carves or scribes his Word upon that table (written on the table). He is the bread and wine. You eat and drink. You become one at the table. An intimate moment evolves because you spent time in Bible study... preparing and bringing His food to the table.

His Word... His Body... His heart that you gave to Him. So, study to show yourself approved of God, a workman that need not be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of truth. (paraphrased)

How? Through Bible study.
