The Truth Contained in the Gospel
To set up his corrective letter, Paul reminds the Colossians that their pastor Epaphras was a faithful minister of Christ and that he had preached to them the truth of the gospel. The gospel has been pointing to Christ since the Old Testament, and it is the only message with the transformative power from God to change us. When we focus on Christ, faith, love and hope come forth as the fruit of hearing the gospel.

Haggai: Prioritize God
The book of Haggai speaks to those who returned from captivity to rebuild the temple, but they stopped and went to rebuild their own houses. They were told to put God first, tend to His house, and stop being self-serving. This book speaks to us today as well. God will enable us to take care of His house, and He will not abandon us if we put Him first in all things.

Ezekiel: Why God Punished His People
Just before God brought the judgment of exile upon Judah, the people were profaning and desecrating His temple by worshiping unclean animals, Tammuz the Assyrian fertility god, and the sun inside of it. This was the last straw for God. This message is an overview of the book of Ezekiel. The whole book is needed to understand why God punished His people.

A Prophet of Exile in Exile
The book of Daniel is necessary to understand the events in the book of Revelation. Daniel prophesied about historical events that came to pass hundreds of years later, as well as events yet to come in the last days. His prophecies about successive kingdoms in history have been so accurate that we ought to take his end-time prophecies seriously.

Jeremiah: A Message No One Wanted to Hear

Jeremiah: A Message No One Wanted to Hear
God used the prophet Jeremiah to deliver a message to the southern kingdom of Judah that no one wanted to hear: “The agreement I made with their fathers is broken and cancelled.” History shows that God kept His word. He brought Judah into Babylonian captivity for 70 years. This contradicts everything that’s being proclaimed about modern-day Israel and the people that live there today. While there are many messages in the book of Jeremiah, one of the most beloved is the promise of a New Covenant. This assures us that no matter how far we think we’ve fallen, or how bad we think we are, it’s never too late to turn back to God.

When God Has Had Enough

When God Has Had Enough
God was longsuffering with the children of Israel, but eventually, He had enough. They defaulted on the land He had promised them, they did not keep the covenant, and they would not turn back to Him. Just as God judged Nineveh when they would not heed His warnings, He had to punish His own people when they rejected Him. Our own country needs to turn back to God today. We might wonder how long God will allow evil things to go on in the world, but God will deal with them in His own time.

Micah: What Has God Done to Offend You?

Micah: What Has God Done to Offend You?
Micah was a true prophet of God amongst many false prophets. He preached the unpopular message that there is judgment and punishment for sin, and for abandoning your God. The false prophets were deliberately blind to rampant sin. They ingratiated themselves to the rich and affluent, and only spoke good and positive words for financial profit. They saw no connection between their behavior and the impending doom upon the nation. Nothing has changed, and the question that God asked through the prophet is still valid today: “What has God done to offend you?” This is what the modern church needs to be asking itself, since many have defected from following God.
