Question:
How do you know if you’ve done enough? As a child I was told “God helps those who help themselves” but I was also reminded “Let go and let God”. It’s very confusing…

We as believers are always to trust absolutely in our wonderful heavenly Father. Any “Bible-believing” Christian (and should there be any other kind?) would acknowledge this in a heartbeat. In practice, however, who or what we REALLY trust in can be so subtle that even the most sincere among us might at times be outside of where we want to be.

Last year at about this time, Father asked me to do something that was a little uneasy at the time. So I made sure that it was in-fact He that was asking, and that it was in fact His direction for me. Then I asked Him to strengthen and help me, and to calm my fears. What He did for me was exactly what I needed to carry out His direction.

God’s Word is truth. In life, one must eventually choose what he holds to be the standard for what is and what is not truth when it comes to the things of God. I choose God’s Word, the Bible (as originally written). Everyone eventually makes a choice. Choose wisely.

Miracles and healing are not dead today, nor are they reserved for the ultra-pious. God’s people can and do see them happen all the time. Would you like to see them happen in your life?

The key to maintaining the unity of the spirit is not to endeavor to become more like one another. It is to continually recognize that our differences are relatively insignificant compared to what we share.

Tithing (paying one tenth) is based on the Old Testament law which we are no longer under. But what about today in this administration of grace in which we live?

Believers can certainly give one tenth of their incomes if they want to and even correctly call it their tithes since “a tenth part” is all the word “tithe” means, but there is no commandment in effect today to do so. Giving is encouraged in the New Testament, but there is no statement as to how much.
