Barnabas – Comforter and Encourager (Part 1)

This article is about Barnabas as a biblical role model: a “Son of Encouragement” who comforted believers, held money loosely by giving generously, and acted as a bridge-builder by vouching for Saul and helping him be received into Christian fellowship.
Acts 4:36–37

Mothers wanted

This article is about “mothers in Christ,” using Deborah as a model for spiritual motherhood—rooted in fellowship with God, discernment, encouragement, and praise. It highlights New Testament examples and urges believers (women and men) to serve with motherly care, prayer, and wisdom.

Life of Faith

Grow in the Knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ

Commentaries

The Holy Spirit – His nature and working

The presence of the Holy Spirit on earth is one of the significant and characteristic features of the Christian era. Therefore, it is important to have a clear understanding of the person of God’s Spirit and His work. The New Testament shows Him to us as a person of the Godhead who came to this earth and dwells in believers.
Acts 2,1-4; John 16:5-14

The Gospel of Mark

The evangelist Mark presents the Lord Jesus especially as the servant of God. According to His own words, He did not come to be served, but to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many (Mark 10:45). Every reader who studies the perfect servant will be led to spiritual growth and motivated to faithful service. This commentary provides a good overview of the Gospel of Mark, yet remains thorough in its approach.
Acts 10:38

He taught them many things in parables

The parables of the Lord Jesus form a central part of His teaching. Through everyday images and short narratives, they address questions of faith, responsibility, and the nature of God’s kingdom. This commentary examines the parables in their historical and literary context, highlighting their structure, themes, and intended audience in order to support a careful and informed understanding of these texts.
Mark 4:2

Exposition of the letter to the Romans

A clear yet profound exposition of the Epistle to the Romans! F. B. Hole was a skilled Bible expositor. He knew how to present the main points of a chapter precisely and vividly. This series of expositions of the New Testament offers valuable assistance in understanding the Word of God, which is so urgently needed but often neglected in our time.
Romans 1-16

Can I lose My Salvation?

The question of whether a believer can be lost has probably occupied every Christian at some point. It is simply too important to be pushed aside. This book provides a clear answer to this question. The basis for all considerations can only be the Word of God, not experiences and events. That is why many Bible passages are explained and interpreted in their context in this book. This gives the reader a renewed impression of how great and mighty God’s salvation is. But the aspect of human responsibility is not neglected either.
