Greatly Loved

Raymond Elliott


The Bible is replete with the names of persons who found favor in the sight of God and His Son, Jesus Christ. Here are just a few names: We read in Genesis 5:23, 24, that Enoch “went up by a whirlwind into heaven”; and, Elijah “went up by a whirlwind into heaven.” (2 Kings 2:11). Thus these two men of God did not die as mentioned in Hebrews 9:27. Abraham trusted in God inasmuch he was willing to sacrifice his son, Isaac (Genesis 22:1-18). The writer of the book of Hebrews (11:17); and, James in his epistle (2:21), declared that in God’s sight, he did offer up his son. Abraham was truly a “friend of God” (2:23). Before the prophet Jeremiah was born, the Lord said, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations” (Jeremiah 1:5). The angel announced that Mary, who “was betrothed to Joseph,” would “bring forth a Son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins” (Matthew 1:20, 21). The apostle John, was, without doubt, “the disciple whom Jesus loved” (John 13:23; 19:26). It is written that “Jesus loved Martha and her sister (Martha) and Lazarus” (John 11:5, 36).

SPIRITUAL GIFTS: ARE THEY AVAILABLE TODAY?

Jim Dearman

“Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant” (1 Corinthians 12:1).  The spiritual gifts in this passage are the miraculous powers, such as prophesying, speaking in tongues (other languages), healing the sick, and raising the dead.  Are such gifts still available to people today?  We must not be ignorant concerning this important matter.  Therefore, let us search the Scriptures for the truth about spiritual gifts.
