Believers in Business: Three Tenets for Transactions

by reflectionsintheword

Business deals are not inherently wrong. But it is equally obvious that the worldly business practices of worldly men are worldly instead of godly. Thus, the goals of Believers are often diametrically opposed to those with whom they must do business. How then can a Believer navigate the world of business in a way that honors God?

Levitical Light for Literal Liturgy: Give Thanks

by reflectionsintheword

Today, since the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Christians are now the ones appointed to GIVE THANKS; because Believers are the royal priesthood of God (1 Peter 2:9-10). It is Believers who must show the world how to GIVE THANKS to God!

RSS Verse of the day

  • 1 Corinthians 15:55-57
    “O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

“Worship is the submission of all of our nature to God.

It is the quickening of the conscience by His holiness;

the nourishment of mind with His truth;

the purifying of imagination by His beauty;

the opening of the heart to His love; the surrender of will to His purpose

―all this gathered up in adoration, the most selfless emotion of which our nature is capable.”

― William Temple
