Psalm 127: The Lord's Beloved

The book of Psalms is a treasure that gives us language to express our emotions to God, and many Psalms point us to Christ. Psalm 127, written by Solomon, is a reflection on the blessing of God's people, emphasizing that all labors will amount to nothing if the Lord is not working for us and in us and with us. The psalm celebrates the blessing of children, the defense of the family, and the prosperity and protection of the city, ultimately pointing forward to Jesus as the true fulfillment of everything that had been pointed to and anticipated in all that had been said about the king.

The Bible teaches that hell is a place of eternal punishment, where the wicked will be actively punished by God. The concept of hell is often misunderstood, with some thinking it's simply separation from God, but it's actually separation from God's grace, care, and love. The Bible also teaches that there are degrees of punishment in hell, with those who have committed multiple offenses receiving a greater punishment. The doctrine of annihilationism, which suggests that the wicked will be annihilated rather than punished eternally, is also discussed. [... more]

The Battle with the Devil

The portrayal of Satan in modern culture is vastly different from the biblical depiction, where he is described as the angel of light, a roaring lion, and a formidable opponent. Christians must be aware of the reality of Satan's power and influence, but also avoid overestimating his abilities, lest they fall into the error of attributing divine powers to a creature.

The Good Shepherd

The Good Shepherd knows his sheep and is known by them, and he lays down his life for them. This concept is tied to the imagery of the barrier to access in the Old Testament, where Christ's death removed the veil between God and humanity. Jesus' words also introduce the idea of the New Covenant, where God's sheep are not limited to Israel but come from every tongue and tribe and nation. [... more]
