“For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities: but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.” (Hebrews 4:15) This is a passage which clearly defines Christ’s capacity to experience emotions and to identify with my (and all people’s — even wives’) emotions. The implications of this […]
Concept Review | Proverbs 18:22 Word Study By Ken Nair
“Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing.” Proverbs 18:22 There are two words in this Scripture that today, in our modern society, tend to lend themselves to potential misuse. The words are “good” and “thing.” This seems then to be a passage that needs some clarification. I have heard men express gratitude toward their wives in many areas ranging […]
Marriage | Results of a Christ-like Spiritual Leader in a Marriage
The Effect of a Christ-Like Husband by Ken Nair and S.M. Often, as I am working with a husband whose wife has left him, maybe even involved with another man, he challenges his wife’s relationship with God. When he asks me, What about her?

Have we been led to believe he can even control the circumstances or character in a Christian’s life without permission? Is […]
Concept Review | Hebrews 12:1 Word Study by Ken Nair
Wherefore, seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doeth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us. Hebrews 12:1 I think many Christians are struggling because they do not know how to identify “the sin […]
Concept Review | Mark 14:40 Word Study by Ken Nair
“Neither wist they what to answer him.” (Mark 14:40 KJV) As I read Mark 14:32-41, I need to imagine myself being there with Jesus and try to feel what was happening. Otherwise, I could easily miss an opportunity to increase my hope. And there is an outstanding offer of hope in that passage. To discover the hope, we must identify […]
Concept Review | Galatians 5:24 Word Study by Ken Nair
“And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh.” (Galatians 5:24) Crucifying the flesh, that which is more commonly known as dying to self, is a phrase often spoken by Christians with great enthusiasm.
