 Musick-al note # 203               We are told in 1 Corinthians 15:40-54 that there will be a resurrection of the dead, however the new life will not be flesh and blood but a heavenly body.  What we are now is like seed and the new growth of each plant is different from each seed.Continue reading “WILL WE KNOW EACH OTHER IN ETERNITY?”

Musick-al Note # 202                    How often we deceive ourselves into thinking that our conduct is pleasing to God because we are able to exonerate ourselves as we observe others in the faith.  This comparing self with ourselves is not wise.  We must “look into the perfect law of liberty” as a mirror toContinue reading “GOD KNOWS US AS WE ARE”

Musick-al note # 201          Paul in the Book of Romans gives us some insight into the matter of obedience to God.  Note that in 1:16, “the Gospel of Christ is the power of God to save”.  In 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, Paul declared that the ‘gospel’ is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus accordingContinue reading “WE ARE CHANGED BY OBEDIENCE”

Musick-al Note # 200                In our day of decreasing money values, much time is expended to investigate the true value or real worth of an item before it is purchased.  Then a great deal of effort and time is spent in giving proper maintenance and maximum utilization of the product to obtain the optimumContinue reading “GETTING OUR MONEY’S WORTH”

Musick-al Note # 199                          Many issues are facing the church today.  Years ago, those who taught doctrines contrary to the truth would leave the body of Christ, taking with them such supporters as would listen and build groups after their persuasion.  Today, however, such teachers are willing to hide their true identity whileContinue reading “TO KNOW TRUTH”

Musick-al note # 198                          I am not sure what is expected in response to this question.  I will try to give a scriptural answer to the best of my ability.  Simply, the Christian life is a life which a follower of Jesus Christ tries to live in this world.  It is aContinue reading “WHAT IS THE CHRISTIAN LIFE?”

Musick-al Note # 197                        Children in families do become unhappy and we overlook it to a degree for they often think only of themselves and are not satisfied when someone else gets attention or receives a blessing from parents of someone else.  We just call it a mark of immaturity and try to teachContinue reading “THE CAUSE OF UNHAPPINESS”

 Musick-al note # 196                       If you really desire eternal life, the only book one needs to study is the Bible, especially the New Testament and urge you to study it carefully and follow it alone.  This means not only to learn about Jesus but to learn how to obey Him, how to worshipContinue reading “FOLLOW THE BIBLE”

Musick-al Note # 195                                 As little children we might not care about fairness.  One has a box of candy – another has none but the child with the candy doesn’t care whether the other has any or not.  One may have plenty of food and a warm home while the playmate does not.  HeContinue reading “IS IT FAIR?”

Musick-al Note # 194                          Do we trust the God for our foundation to receive eternal life?  This nation and the world have many differing religions and differing church groups, each vying for the people around them.  There are many missionaries for these groups with differing tactics, teachings and beliefs, each declaring that theyContinue reading “FOLLOW THE PATTERN”
