And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden. -Genesis 3:8Adam knew a close relationship with God.

Serving the Lord with all humility of mind.--Acts 20:19.Whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; andwhosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: even as theSon of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to givehis life a ransom for many.If a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, hedeceiveth himself.--I say, through the grace

“All Your robes are fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia; from palaces adorned with ivory the music of the strings makes You glad.” Psalm 45:8 Did you ever stop and think, why Christ would want to leave His great glory in Heaven? Leave all the riches of and fragrances of that land so fair.Why He would come down to this sinful world of mortal man?I'll tell you why. Because of His great love

Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. -James 1:27 Pure and undefiled is the vessel, God is looking for. He has given us many examples on how to be pure. Doing Christ's commandments is required in the Christian life.So many are hurting and lonely. Just waiting for a word

Who is Jesus Christ? It seems there has always been confusion.This confusion about Him actually began during His own life—even among those who had known Him all His life: It seems that there was general disagreement in Judea over just who He was.When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, "Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?" So they said, "Some

The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us. Deut. 29:29LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me. Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child. Psa. 131:1, 2The secret of the Lord is

It is commanded of God that Christians pray regularly.Men ought always to pray, and not to faint. Luke 18:1Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him? And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my
