Comments Off on Producing Good Fruit, Videos, by CGP.
God is a “gardener” who is interested in producing good fruit. As the pinnacle of His creation, He is working in us to produce those fruits in our lives that will please Him. The physical analogy of the natural world as God’s garden, and the growth from seed to mature fruit-bearing plant helps us understand the spiritual reality. As Thoreau said, “Convince me that you have a seed there, and I will expect wonders.” God is also expecting wonders.
Comments Off on Vision for the Future, Videos, by CGP.
The secular world doesn’t offer a vision of anything more than, “Eat, drink, and be merry.” But God offers an amazing vision of the future. The lessons of Ecclesiastes, and the stories of Shebna and Hilkiah, and the apostle Paul teach us about the need for a transcendental view of the future. Will we embrace the vision that motivated Abraham and all of God’s faithful servants? More
Comments Off on Making Good Decisions: Wisdom of Knowledge, Videos, by CGP.
We all have important choices and decisions to make. So how do we find the wisdom to make good decisions? How do we avoid making foolish mistakes, because we lack understanding? The scriptures tell us that God is the stability of our times and the source of the knowledge we need to make wise choices. So how do we access this knowledge? Consider the example of Ahithophel and Absalom, Hushai, and David.

Comments Off on Celebrating the New Covenant Passover: When Do We Observe It?, Articles, Carolanne Patton, by CGP.
Celebrating the New Covenant Passover?
Based on the Hebrew scriptures, the gospels, and historical record we are confident in stating that during the time of Jesus’ death the Jews were correct in celebrating the Passover at the end of the 14th of Nisan/ Abib Some Churches of God in the past century have called this time the, “Night to Be Much Observed.”
Now the trickier part is in the gospel accounts, concerning the timing of the foot washing, bread and wine ceremonies that we call the New Covenant Passover. This is due to the one divergent reading that seems to say that the disciples ate a “Passover” meal with the disciples at the beginning of the 14th. In the scholarly literature this was considered to be the “thorniest” question in all of the New Testament. There were according to the writers 4 main possible explanations. Here they are in a nutshell: More
Comments Off on Presumptuous Sins: Sectarian Dangers., Videos, by CGP.
We have all met people who insist that their group is the only group God is using, or that you need to know the special name that God wants people to use, or that you are not pleasing God unless you follow them and the calendar they have calculated. But what does God say about these ideas? Jeff Patton explains Paul’s commentary on these types of “religious devotions” and the sectarian dangers inherent in them. How would you answer people who in their sincere desire to please God are caught up in this form of presumptuousness?
