Pentecost
Posted May 9, 2008, 09:52:57
By admin@wcg.org
The disciples knew they had work to do and a mission to fulfill, and they knew they needed help in getting it done. They would face dangers, intellectual challenges, and personal weakness. For decades of dedication, they needed more than adrenaline — they needed the Holy Spirit. This is commemorated yearly in the Christian calendar with the day of Pentecost. more

I was packing for my business trip and my three-year-old daughter was having a wonderful time playing on the bed. At one point she said, "Daddy, look at this" and stuck out two of her fingers.
Trying to keep her entertained, I reached out and stuck her tiny fingers in my mouth and said, "Daddy's gonna eat your fingers," pretending to eat them.
I went back to packing, looked up again and my daughter was standing on the bed staring at her fingers with a devastated look on her face.
I said, "What's wrong, honey?"
She replied, "What happened to my booger?"

When God Made Moms
Posted May 06, 2008, 10:47:35
By admin@newlives.org
By the time the Lord made mothers, he was into his sixth day of working overtime. An Angel appeared and said "Why are you spending so much time on this one"? And the Lord answered and said, "Have you seen the spec sheet on her? She has to be completely washable, but not plastic; have 200 movable parts, all replaceable; run on black coffee and leftovers; have a lap that can hold three children at one time and that disappears when she stands up; have a kiss that can cure anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart, and have six pairs of hands." more

Sharing The Good News

By admin@newlives.org
As followers of Jesus Christ, we proclaim the gospel—we announce the good news of what Christ has done for all humanity. But the gospel is not just words to pronounce—it also involves practical application in our lives. When we accept the gospel of grace, it affects the way we think and the way we live. more
The biblical books of poetry

The book of Psalms can be one of the most effective tools in building your relationship with God. If you feel your prayer life is in decline, read the Psalms. They are the emotional outpourings of people in a host of different situations. They are "a treasury of experiences accumulated by generations of people who lived in the region where the cradle of our own civilization stood." Reading their prayers can help your rejuvenate your prayer life. more
The Teachings of Jesus

The Gospel

By admin@newlives.org
Almost 2,000 years ago, a Jewish carpenter began to preach. He was popular with some people, but he made others angry. Officials said he was a threat to national security, and they arranged for his death. His only weapon was his message. Bad people liked it, but "good" people didn't. He said it was about love—so why did anyone hate it? What was the message that got Jesus killed? more

The Resurrection of Jesus
Posted Mar 21, 2008, 09:39:33
By admin@newlives.org
Christians, Jews, and atheists agree that Jesus was crucified and buried. The crucial belief for Christianity is that he was also resurrected — as evidence that he is the Son of God, the teacher of truth, the door and the way of salvation, the firstfruits of the resurrection. Here is the evidence for his resurrection. more
The Crucifixion of Christ
Posted Mar 14, 2008, 19:23:32
By admin@newlives.org
Why did the Messiah have to die? The resurrection, attested by hundreds who saw him alive, proved that Jesus was the promised Messiah. But one thing still did not make sense — why did the Messiah have to die? Surely his death proved he was not righteous. Surely God would not allow his appointed leader to be falsely accused, slandered, ridiculed and finally killed by the Romans! Of what value is a leader who dies? more

Prayer
Posted Jul 31, 2006, 13:05:26
By WCG
Some people make prayer sound like a duty, as a work that faithful Christians must perform. Some make it sound like we ought to pray three times a day, or rise before dawn, following the example of this or that famous person. We should pray not as a duty, but out of need. To put it simply, we need help, and God can give it. more

Abraham is one of the outstanding individuals of the Old Testament. God spoke to him personally, visited him in his home and even considered him a friend. Abraham loved God, obeyed him, and was even willing to sacrifice his son for him. Abraham is a biblical superhero, deserving a place in the Old Testament Hall of Fame. But are his experiences something you can relate to? more

The Church

Most Christians are in small churches. Though megachurches usually get more attention, small churches are the backbone of Christianity. People are more likely to come to faith in a small church than in a megachurch. Small churches are not confined to small towns -- they are found in the biggest cities, too. Some are dying, but others are thriving, and God is doing a remarkable work through them. more

Tragedies

By admin@newlives.org
Scripture tells us that God can be trusted to take good care of those who put their faith in him. But the Bible makes no bones about the fact that it takes faith, because the actual path of human life, even for the faithful, as we know so well, is regularly fraught with trouble, trial and pain. more
Is It Really True?
Posted Jan 4, 2008, 14:54:15
By admin@newlives.org
Most historians agree that the early disciples believed that Jesus had risen from the dead. Although at Jesus' death they were dejected and fearful, they were soon dramatically different: They risked their lives repeatedly to preach about Jesus. Of course, people sometimes give their lives for erroneous ideas — but only if they believe they are true. Then, we can consider how dozens of disciples could come to such a conviction. Perhaps the first possibility we could consider is that Jesus didn't really die... read more
The Church
Posted Dec 28, 2007, 19:22:05
By admin@newlives.org
Each Christian must believe, make decisions about how to live and decide what to believe. But the New Testament is clear that we are not merely individuals -- we are part of a body. The church is optional in the same sense that responsibility is optional -- God lets us choose what to do, but that does not mean that all choices are equally helpful for us, or that all are equally within God's will. Do Christians need teachers? The entire New Testament is evidence that we do. more

A reason to hope No one would have guessed that the "illegitimate" baby was the answer to the nation’s hopes. A baby can’t do anything, can’t teach anyone, can’t help anyone, and can’t save anyone. But a baby has potential. There is hope for us, too, when we become children of God. more

Christian Life

By WCG
Our relationship with God is based on faith, not a list of rules. It is a personal loyalty to God, a loyalty that leads us to obey, but a loyalty that always looks directly to God, not to a list of rules as a gauge of our relationship. We never boast of obedience, nor despair of falling short. more
The Four Gospels
Posted Dec 7, 2007 16:13:29
By WCG
At the heart of Christianity is the person and work of Jesus Christ. So we would expect the Christian Scriptures to include an account of Jesus' life. But why do we have four -- the Gospels according to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John? Isn't this redundant? more
Death
Posted Dec 02, 2007, 14:27:23
By admin@newlives.org
If Christianity is simply about this physical life and then we die to never exist again, then it doesn’t matter what we do or how we live or what we believe. But there is a resurrection, and this is an essential part of the Christian faith. Let’s look at the significance of this doctrine—not just for the future, but for day-to-day living, as well. It is relevant every day of our lives.more

Halloween falls on October 31st, the eve of All Saints Day, which is observed by some Christian churches. However, the modern celebration of Halloween is not generally thought of as a Christian time of worship. The day does have religious significance for some people, particularly wiccans and druids. For some people, Halloween or some of its elements may have a non-Christian religious meaning. For most children, however, there is no religious significance involved in either the day itself or in such elements as pumpkins or costumes. more
Salvation

By admin@newlives.org
Nothing is more certain about life than death. One day, we receive the sobering news that a loved one has died. We are reminded that we, too, will die—tomorrow, next year or in half a century. The fear of death has driven some people, such as the explorer Ponce de Leon, to search for some fabled but non-existent fountain of youth. But the grim reaper will not be denied. Death comes to everyone. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if there really were some grand purpose for human life? A purpose that includes eternal life? more

God
Posted Sep 21, 2006, 09:47:03
By WCG
Our most basic religious belief is that God exists. By the capitalized word "God," we mean the God described in the Bible: a good and powerful spirit being who created all things, who cares about us, who cares about what we do, who is involved in our lives, and who offers us an eternity with his goodness. Humans cannot understand God in totality, but we can have a solid beginning point for understanding who God is and what God is doing in our lives. Let's focus on the qualities of God that a new believer, for example, might find most helpful. more
Events In The Life Of Jesus
Posted Sep 14, 2007, 16:30:02
By WCG
Jesus was born in the normal way, grew in the normal way, got hungry and thirsty and tired, ate and drank and slept. He looked normal, talked in ordinary language, and walked in the normal way. He had emotions like compassion, surprise, sorrow and apprehension.
He was a human — but he was such an extraordinary human that, after he ascended to heaven, some people claimed he was not human after all. So, what sort of person was he? The Christian faith centers on Jesus Christ. We need to understand what kind of person he is. more

The Bible

By admin@newlives.org
Most Americans have a Bible, but many have never read it. Perhaps they started to read it, but gave up after reading a few chapters. Why? Maybe because the Bible seems to be such an intimidating book. It even looks difficult to read, with its hundreds of pages and names that are hard to pronounce. This makes it seem dignified, but imposing and not very "user-friendly." more
Youth Minstry

For the first year and a half of Jesus’ ministry, it seems that his primary focus was on building relationships—helping the disciples know and love him more and helping them know and love one another more. Jesus advanced this strategy by providing environments in which such loving relationships would grow and thrive. This is an effective strategy for youth ministry. more

Jesus taught about the kingdom of God — but what did he say about it? When we are studying something as important as the central message of Jesus Christ, it is not safe to make assumptions. First-century Jews had various assumptions about what the Messiah would do, but Jesus did not act the way they wanted him to. Their assumptions about the king were wrong, and their assumptions about the kingdom were wrong, too. They wanted the Messiah to bring a physical kingdom, but Jesus brought something different. more

When you approach the egg case, you hear hens cluck and cackle and the air is filled with the pleasing aroma of bacon and eggs frying. The veggie department features the smell of fresh buttered corn. I don't buy toilet paper there any more.

I was packing for my business trip and my three-year-old daughter was having a wonderful time playing on the bed. At one point she said, "Daddy, look at this" and stuck out two of her fingers.
Trying to keep her entertained, I reached out and stuck her tiny fingers in my mouth and said, "Daddy's gonna eat your fingers," pretending to eat them.
I went back to packing, looked up again and my daughter was standing on the bed staring at her fingers with a devastated look on her face.
I said, "What's wrong, honey?"
She replied, "What happened to my booger?"

Christians, Jews, and atheists agree that Jesus was crucified and buried.

Here is the evidence for his resurrection. more

Is It Really True?

Most historians agree that the early disciples believed that Jesus had risen from the dead. Although at Jesus' death they were dejected and fearful, they were soon dramatically different: They risked their lives repeatedly to preach about Jesus. Of course, people sometimes give their lives for erroneous ideas — but only if they believe they are true. Then, we can consider how dozens of disciples could come to such a conviction. Perhaps the first possibility we could consider is that Jesus didn't really die... read more

Each Christian must believe, make decisions about how to live and decide what to believe. But the New Testament is clear that we are not merely individuals -- we are part of a body. The church is optional in the same sense that responsibility is optional -- God lets us choose what to do, but that does not mean that all choices are equally helpful for us, or that all are equally within God's will. Do Christians need teachers? The entire New Testament is evidence that we do. more

Humans cannot understand God in totality, but we can have a solid beginning point for understanding who God is and what God is doing in our lives.
