He Walks With Us

Category: New Testament

  • Coals of Fire

    Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Romans 12:20 (KJV) Heap coals of fire upon his head – Why is this the metaphor we’re made to associate with being kind to our enemies? Sounds rather drastic,…

  • The Will of God

    And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law; Romans 2:18 (KJV) Knowest his will – Who knows the will of God? Who knows His plan for our lives? We’re always searching for some explanation of what’s to come, but maybe we should be looking to…

  • Walking Without Sin

    And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. Luke 1:6 Blameless – No one likes to read these words, and most won’t acknowledge what they clearly state. Zacharias and Elisabeth, the parents of John the Baptist, were walking without sin during this time in their lives.…

  • Weightier Matters

    Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. Matthew 23:23 (KJV) Judgment – How can judgment be one of the weightier…

  • What is the oil?

    They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. Matthew 25:3-4 (KJV) Oil – There’s been much debate over exactly what the oil represents in this parable. I know I’ve had many conversations on this topic myself. Is it the Holy…

  • Destroying an Idiom

    Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. Matthew 5:17 (KJV) Destroy/Fulfill – How many times have we heard that because Yeshua fulfilled the law, we don’t have to? Somehow we’ve come to believe that since Yeshua fulfilled the law, it…

  • Defining a Fool

    Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: Luke 24:25 (KJV) O Fools – April 1st was a day to recognize the foolish, to play jokes, and act silly, so I thought it fitting to touch on whom Yeshua considers foolish in this world.…

  • Imitation is the Highest Form of Flattery

    And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. Matthew 4:19 (KJV) Follow me – The words used by Yeshua to select his disciples seem so simple, don’t they? Just follow Him. He’s heading to the kingdom, so I’ll head that way too. But while focusing our attention on the end goal,…

  • A Renewed Covenant

    For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: Hebrews 8:8 (KJV) New – Boy don’t we love these words! If there’s a new covenant, then surely we can dismiss that old one which was full…

  • Disobedience is Rewarded with Punishment

    He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. John 3:36 (KJV) Believeth not – Do you think it mattered if Noah actually believed God was going to open the depths of earth and the skies…
