Free Resource | Does the Bible Promote Tolerance or Intolerance?
One group says the Bible is a book about love, mercy, and kindness. They think of the story of the Good Samaritan and of Jesus telling us to turn the other cheek. So how could anyone think the Bible prevents a tolerant society? But for another group, the Bible is far from tolerant. There’s the conquest of Canaan. There’s Elijah killing Baal’s prophets by his own hand. And in the New Testament, Jesus talks often about hell. That’s not tolerant. What then can we say in answer to this question?

Why was the blind man healed twice? Did Jesus not get it right the first time? What are we to learn from this? He is the Savior, not just a healer or a teacher. Jesus' miracles always point to spiritual lessons.

Money is such a sensitive topic to teach on and there can be confusion and a lack of clarity. Jesus doesn't call for a monastic life, nor is he anti-treasure. He just encourages us to store up our treasure in heaven.

Today we think that if someone has good intentions, they must be doing things the right way. But the Pharisees were sincere and wanted to follow God, and Jesus said they had it entirely wrong. Jesus gave the most stinging rebukes to the religious leaders who thought they knew religion.

We see Jesus leaving the disciples and going up the mountain to pray. If Jesus took the time to do this, how much more important is it for us to focus on our personal relationship with God? Private prayer is the fuel for all spiritual progress.

Because we have God's Word in our hands and we live on the other side of the resurrection, we may know more about who Jesus is than those who actually saw him do miracles in person. Josh Moody explains that this is one more reason to focus on the Word of God.

It's so easy in church life to look around before the service and think that everyone's ok. But as a pastor, Josh Moody assures us that every person in church either now or in the past or in the future will face a problem that is beyond his or her ability to solve. Listen to find out where the solution might lie.

Fat Christians are fed Christians who are not serving. Fit Christians are fed Christians who are serving. It's important that we exercise what God gives us through service, evangelism, and discipleship. Are you fat or fit?

One side of the Sea of Galilee had the pigs driven by demons and the other side had a synagogue ruler. And Jesus had the solution for both. In these verses, we see Jesus dealing with our social and cultural  difficulties, and also the problems of church life and ministry. Either way, Jesus is the solution.
