The application we are to make for putting leaven out of our lives is to that of overcoming sin—an impossible task without God, but He has promised abundant help if we are willing.

Sideways – For Your Sake
Many times we find life not going the way we expected or planned it to go. What do we do during those times? What do we do when hardships and strong trials seek to take us down? God has a plan for each of us. This plan includes wanting to do good things for us. We need to learn how to respond and how to act.
Equity
We live in an ever increasingly divided world. We make military decisions as a country that serve our own interests in the name of “Justice” which only further the rift between world powers. We cannot rely on a false sense of justice as Christians. We must build up a foundation based on Godly Wisdom if we are to remain lights to the world.
The Perspective of Passover
Do you understand Passover in its historical context and is there a prophetic frame of reference for this annual Feast Day? What about right now—does Passover really relate at the present time?
How Thankful Are You?
Are we thankful enough? Do we only show our gratitude when it goes well with us? How can we be thankful in trials? What is a major cause for unthankfulness? Is thankfulness conditional?
Goal of Perfection
To achieve perfection, we must be prepared at all times by doing what God specifically tells us to do. To help us better strive for that perfection, we must have hope, faith, and love towards each other and God’s law. Having the right attitude and the right goal will ultimately bring us closer to perfection.

Gaining Help and Strength from Others
We each have different kinds of strength. Some are able to persevere against hopeless odds. Some are able to see light in a world of darkness. Some are able to give selflessly with no thought of return, while others are able to bring a sense of perspective into the hearts of those around them. Those who have such gifts – and there are many in the church who have so much to give – can be of great help and strength to others! We should gain help and strength from others and, just as importantly, we should give help and strength to others, wherever possible. That way we will all be heading in the right direction – right on towards the Kingdom of God!
Is Now the Day of Salvation?
We read in 2 Corinthians 6:2 that now is the accepted time and the day of salvation. Does this mean that salvation is offered today to everyone? If so, then most of humanity would be lost. But how can one come to God in a world which is ruled by Satan and his demons? And can the overwhelming majority of mankind even believe in God and His salvation at this time? What does 2 Corinthians 6:2 really mean?
Effects of Entropy
Can evolution be correct in stating that from chaos comes order? That life spawned from mutating cells? Can it be proven that we live in a world that is getting stronger? Or do we see just the opposite, everything decaying? Do we see the plausibility that the destruction of earth is for a reason and that there is indeed a God who created and set in motion the need for the laws that govern our world?
