Volume 10 Issue 8
by Larry J. Grainger
August 2008
THE GIFT OF SABBATH
I can hear some of you now; “There he goes trying to put us under the Mosaic Law.” Somehow we have developed a fear of anything that comes from the Old Testament and that fear sometimes causes us to ignore the truth given in the Old Testament. I should say the Old Testament is just as relevant to our walk with Jesus Christ as is the New Testament. Jesus said that He didn’t come to abolish the law, but rather to fulfill it. Remember the axiom, “The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed and the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed.” Having said that, no I am not attempting to return to our observing the law or adopting any kind of rules or regulations. I simply want us to take a look at a principle that Jesus Himself addressed and contemplate how we might make any needed adjustments in our lives accordingly.

Volume 10 Issue 7
by Larry J. Grainger
July 2008
PRIMARILY CONCERNED WITH
WHAT IS PRIMARY
Is your life a wreck? Do you wonder sometimes if God has forsaken you and ceased hearing your prayers? Does everything you touch turn to shambles? What a way to begin this month’s letter! Take a look at these words and determine if they are something that you can relate to. “You have planted much but harvest little. You eat but are not satisfied. You drink but are still thirsty. You put on clothes but cannot keep warm. Your wages disappear as though you were putting them in pockets filled with holes!” Have you ever felt like you could identify with this proclamation by the prophet Haggai? You are not alone. The current climate in the United States, and other countries as well, is one of concern because of rising fuel prices, an economy that seems to be faltering (although I am not totally convinced of that yet), and numerous families making adjustments because of strains on their financial situation. Maybe we can find answers for some of us in this account recorded in the first two chapters of the Book of Haggai.
