A Firm Foundation

Posted by on Dec 7, 2010 in Devotional, Theology

What does the Bible say about itself? To me, this is a fascinating subject because it shows the strong foundation that our faith rests upon. Moreover, it is good for us to recall that these are God’s very own words about his book and they demonstrate the self-authenticating nature of the Bible. For example, — Deuteronomy 29:29 “The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.” — Psalm 119:105 “Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” — Isaiah...

Job 14:14, 19:25-26 April 4, 2010 Pastor Marcus J. Serven Covenant Family Church (RPCGA) Modern-day living can certainly be a confusing and confounding experience! However, there is a lesson that you can learn from one who lived long ago, that ancient man of the Bible—Job. Job had everything going for himself—family, friends, and finances. Yet, when all of these were taken away he experienced massive amounts of personal confusion, which lead to self-doubt, self-pity, and extensive soul-searching. In the midst of Job’s personal despair he asks a crucial question about life, “If a man dies,...

The 8th Commandment: You Shall not Steal

Posted by on Mar 29, 2010 in Rev. Serven

Deuteronomy 5:19 March 21 and 28, 2010 Pastor Marcus J. Serven Covenant Family Church (RPCGA) We come now to the 8th Commandment which reads, “And you shall not steal” (Deuteronomy 5:19). At the heart of this commandment is the admonition in both the Old Testament Law (Leviticus 19:18) and the New Testament Gospels (Matthew 22:37-40), that “you shall love your neighbor as yourself”. Indeed, the whole second table of the Law (Commandment’s #5-10) deals with the injunction to “love your neighbor as yourself”. Thus, it is fundamental to the Christian faith that we purpose to never steal from...
