Christ’s Return Emphasized in the Epistles - July 20
The return of Jesus Christ is emphasized greatly in the New Testament epistles. It is a major theme of the Gospels, as well as the writings of Paul, James, Peter, John, and Jude. Obviously it is God’s will that the return of Christ be a major theme of the preaching and teaching in every church, yet I have heard of a great number of so-called Bible-believing churches that rarely touch on this subject and I have communicated with large numbers of professing Christians who know..

Man’s Fall and Redemption- July 15
The following is excerpted from John Phillips’ commentary on Philippians 2:
When God said, "Let us make man," He added, "in our image, after our likeness" (Genesis 1:26). Man was created to be as much like God as a creature could be. God endowed man with intellect, emotions, and will; He gave him a body so that he could see, smell, taste, hear, and feel. Man’s physical life was to be under the control of his mental, emotional, and volitional powers. Then God gave him something that set him apart from the animal creation: He gave him a spirit.
Man’s body made him world-conscious and enabled him to live in a physical environment. His soul made him self-conscious - aware that he was a distinct individual with attributes, nature, personality, potential responsibilities, and.. Read More

Burrowing Owl - July 13
The little burrowing owl is the only owl that lives in holes in the ground. Their native habitat is the deserts, plains, and fields of western North and South America and Florida. They use abandoned holes dug by prairie-dogs, squirrels, armadillos, or other animals. They also dig their own holes, especially in Florida where the ground is soft and sandy.

“..we need church membership because each church is a body.
Church Membership - July 7
The doctrine of church membership is found in the book of Acts, beginning with the first church.
In Acts 1:15 we see that the names of the members were kept.
In Acts 2:41, those that were saved on the day of Pentecost were “added unto them.”
This is church membership.
Four Reasons for Church Membership
Church membership is a matter of practicality, like many other things in the assembly. If a church does not have membership, how can it know who is in the church and who is out?

William Barclay
Beware of William Barclay - July 6
The following is excerpted from The Modern Bible Version Hall of Shame.
1. William Barclay (1907-1978) was a professor at Glasgow University for 28 years and a popular British Bible expositor who wrote several influential books on the Bible. He also published his own translation of the New Testament in 1969.
2. He denied the infallibility of the Scripture, the virgin birth, deity, and substitutionary atonement of Christ, the eternality of Hell, and other cardinal Bible doctrines, and promoted the critical modernistic views of the Old Testament. He interpreted the miracles of Christ in a naturalistic fashion, claiming, for example, that Jesus did not actually walk on the water.. Read More

I’M NOT JOINING THE FRETTERS (Friday Church News Notes, July 2, 2021, www.wayoflife.org, fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) - The Bible instructs God’s people not to fret about the wicked. “Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart” (Ps. 27:1-4). This shows very plainly the error of America’s political conservative movement.
