The Gospel & How to Live
A Standard Blog: The Gospel & How to Live.
The Gospel:
For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 1 Corinthians 2:2
And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
Revelation 14:6
This is the message of the Gospel in a mustard seed, but we should always be studying to show ourselves approved unto God. Read more about the Gospel or "Good News" of Jesus Christ on our blog.
How to Live:
19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27
We owe it to both God and ourselves to know how to live a practical, godly Christian life. This goes beyond mere doctrinal statements or even spiritual understanding, but affects everything we do—from what we eat, and wear, to how we work. Read more about how to live on our blog.

2 And Ezra the priest brought the law before the congregation both of men and women, and all that could hear with understanding, upon the first day of the seventh month.
8 So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading. Nehemiah 8:2, 8
24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
Acts 4:24, 29
In this day and age, many do not have the time or focus to sit and read long articles. By God's grace, our podcast will cover much of the same material as our blog. However, it will feature more polished content in an audio format so that you can listen to the words of life for yourself.

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12
And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. Habakkuk 2:2
We recognize the need for free, quality resources to support us in our walk with God, especially His words. Here digital downloads of Bibles, books, & pamphlets will be available. We hope this encourages people to seek God while He may still be found. Let us all share the Gospel!

9 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of the LORD: and the priests that kept the door put therein all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD.
11 And they gave the money, being told, into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of the LORD: and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders, that wrought upon the house of the LORD, 2 Kings 12:9, 11
2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
3 And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
1 Corinthians 16:2-3
The Gospel is a free gift. We will not sell anything on this website. We will only ask God to provide and leave this "box" here for donations as the Spirit of God moves upon those who read this.
