Warning Signs (Luke 6:24-26)

Share a commentThe most dangerous warning signs aren't always in the sky or the headlines Sometimes they show up as comfort confidence and applause We start with the big biblical storyline of prophecy and judgment walking through Peter and the Great White Throne scene in Revelation where God's Word frames the future with sobering clarity The point isn't to stir panic but to remember who sustains the universe who sets the timeline and why God doesn't change the brochures when it comes to what He has promised Then we go back to Noah the flood and God's covenant in Genesis [... more]

Should Christians Have a Prenup?

God's Word says that a husband and wife become one flesh But it doesn't say anything directly about prenuptial agreements So does that mean Christians should never have one A prenuptial agreement or prenup is a legal contract a couple enters into before marriage It typically establishes how assets property and other financial matters would be handled if the marriage ended in divorce For some couples that may seem like practical planning But Christians should consider more than whether a prenup makes financial sense We should also ask what it communicates about marriage and whether it supports or undermines the [... more]
