Immanuel: God with us show art Immanuel: God with us

Understand the Bible? Pastor Melissa Scott, Ph.D.

Running to the tower of strength that is in God's name is contrasted with running to the arm of the flesh. Many names of God are given, specifically Immanuel: God with us, who is revealed to be Jesus. We are encouraged to consider the circumstances in which these names were given and store them away as an anchor for the soul in our dark times.

Understand the Bible? Pastor Melissa Scott, Ph.D.

Using Joshua as a lens, we can focus on God's victories and how they are won.  Joshua listened obediently to the word of God and acted on it.  God repeatedly tells us through Joshua to fear not. The Lord is our banner: He has a plan, He is with us, He will fight for us, and the battle is the Lord's.  Lining up with God's person will suck you up into the battle, but God's deliverance comes in the darkest hour when His people act in obedience on His word.

"Strive To Enter In At The Strait Gate" (Hard Way or Easy Way)

Understand the Bible? Pastor Melissa Scott, Ph.D.

Especially for the sake of those who are not "church people," this series of scriptures is a reminder that God is not the author of fear or confusion and does not sow panic.

Be Not Moved Away from the Hope of the Gospel show art Be Not Moved Away from the Hope of the Gospel

Understand the Bible? Pastor Melissa Scott, Ph.D.

We are instructed to continue in the faith in order to be able to resist the external forces working to move us away from the hope of the gospel.  The Colossian converts had people presenting false teaching to try to move them away, and the devil will often send people who will ridicule and persecute those in the right way.  If we fall outside the hope, we end up back in the bondage to the world, the flesh, and the devil.  Remain rooted and grounded in the faith.

Sacrifice of Self and the Grace of Giving show art Sacrifice of Self and the Grace of Giving

Understand the Bible? Pastor Melissa Scott, Ph.D.

Until the self is conquered, nothing can be done for the Kingdom of God.  The proof of our love is in the way we give money, time, heart, and self.  There is no excuse to not give: God bestowed grace on the Macedonian Christians who gave out of their deep poverty, and Christ memorialized the poor widow who gave of her substance into the treasury.  These did not suffer the worst poverty of spiritual bankruptcy.  Once the self is presented a living sacrifice to God, He is able to supply all we need and provide abounding grace.
