What is Christianity?
Christianity is about God reaching out his hand in friendship to mankind. Christians believe that the whole world and everything in it was created by God. God is a personal being, a living God who is three, yet one: Father, Son and Spirit, just as we human beings have body, mind and soul! (see the Trinity).

The Bible says God created people in his image, to love him. Yet every person has rebelled against God and sinned. Yet instead of turning his back on us, God became a man, Jesus, who most scholars believe was born about the year 4 BC and lived among us. He taught a message of love throughout Palestine but public opinion turned against him and he was executed as a young man.

He died because of us - the death that we should have died. He was crucified on a cross, but he rose from the dead, and now calls us to trust him, to love him and to repent of our rebellion. If we do this, then we our relationship with God becomes restored and we will live forever with God.

Many non-Christians may think that being a Christian is about belonging to a particular church or following a certain set of rule. Most Christians however would agree that at its root, being a Christian means to be in a living relationship with Jesus.

Devotion Of The Day

Ripe Wheat Field


July, 11 - Daily Devotions

July Scripture Portion for Bible Commentary : Psalms 103 - Isaiah 27 including the books of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Song of Songs

Our English Word "proverb" is actually made up of two Latin words, "pro" (instead of) and "verba" (words). Therefore, a proverb is a short statement that summarizes a wise principle. Mr. Scofield writes, "Proverbs is divine wisdom applied to the earthly conditions of the people of God." The Hebrew Word translated "proverb" means "a comparison." As we shall see, many of the Proverbs of Solomon are comparisons and contrasts. Like most Oriental people, the Jews did much teaching through proverbs. The short sentences were easy for them to remember.

Chapters 1:1, 10:1 and 25:1 indicate that Solomon wrote most of the Book of Proverbs. In 1 Kings 4:32 we read that he spoke 3,000 proverbs. Solomon was known for his wisdom, even though, later in his life, he turned to adultery and folly.

The key Word in this book is "wisdom." We commonly think of wisdom as the ability to use knowledge in the right way, and this is a practical definition. However, in the Bible, wisdom means much more than that. It is a matter of the heart and not the mind alone. It is a spiritual matter. There is the wisdom of this world, and there is divine wisdom from above (1 Corinthians 2:1-8; James 3:13- 19).

In the Book of Proverbs wisdom is actually pictured as a lovely woman who calls to men to follow her into a life of blessing and success. Folly is pictured as a wicked woman who tempts the foolish and leads them to hell. Of course, to the believer, Jesus Christ is the wisdom of God, and when you read Solomon's description of wisdom in Proverbs, you cannot help but see Jesus Christ. Wisdom is pictured as eternal, creator of all things, the beloved of God.

In the first few chapters of the book we will consider wisdom and folly--the two women who are out to woo and win the hearts of men. There are three calls from wisdom and three from folly. Wisdom calls to salvation, wealth, and life. Folly calls to condemnation, poverty, and death. Wisdom's first call is to salvation (chapter 1:20-31). This is an open call, out in the streets where people can see and hear. God's call to hearts is not a secret matter. The Holy Spirit openly invites men to come to Christ. We might note that wisdom invites all three classes--the simple, the scorner, and the fool (chapter 1:22). Wisdom can see that judgment is coming and she wants sinners to escape it. What a wonderful offer she makes to those who will hear.
