1 Corinthians 10:13 – Temptation

By on April 17, 2024 in Comics

1 Corinthians 10:13 - Temptation

Every day, Satan tempts us with the sins of the world, making them seem irresistible. When this happens to you, pray for strength to fight his temptations.

The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.

1 Corinthians 10:13

↓ Transcript
Amos: The vet made my master put me on a diet.
Nim: How's that going?
Amos: I realized that being on a diet is a lot like our journey as Christians. Every morning, we have to wake up and make a decision to be faithful or not.
Nim: Yeah, but at least with a diet, you don't have the devil whispering in your ear to be bad.
Amos: I don't know. I've always thought the devil might come dressed as a cupcake.

Just like in dieting, we must remain resolute in our Christian walk.

Mark 5:36 – Super-Pastor

By on April 16, 2024 in Comics

Seriously Afraid

One thing God and Christ tell us time and again is “Do not be afraid.” Isn’t it about time you got with the program and just took them at their word?

But Jesus overheard and said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid. Just have faith.”

Mark 5:36

↓ Transcript
Nim: Have you talked to your pastor about your fear of thunder?
Con: I don't think he would understand. He's not afraid of anything. Not rolled-up papers, loud noises, shiny floors, not even thunder.
Nim: Wow. He's not just a Pastor. He's more like a superhero.
Con: Seriously.

Your church leaders can help you reduce your fears.

John 14:1-3 – Jesus Has Prepared A Place For You

By on April 11, 2024 in Comics

John 14:1-3 - Jesus Has Prepared A Place For You

Jesus tells His followers that He has prepared a place for them in His Father’s Kingdom. If you trust in Christ, He will prepare a place for you, as well.

Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

John 14:1-3

Con: No, a place.
Nim: The thing is a place?
Con: No, Jesus has prepared a place.
Nim: To put the thing in?
Con: No, to put YOU in.
Nim: I'll be put in some...THING?
Con: You're not listening to me. Jesus is preparing a place for you. End of story.
Nim: Okay, I get it. Now tell me more about the thing.

Jesus has prepared a place for you in Heaven.

Isaiah 53:6 – Following God’s Path

By on April 8, 2024 in Comics

Trust in God, Not Money

Take a step back from the path you’re traveling on to assess whether it’s the path God wants you to tread. It’s easy to get lost when you’re not looking.

All of us, like sheep, have strayed away.     We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him     the sins of us all.

Isaiah 53:6

↓ Transcript
Amos: So your quest for world domination has come to a close, huh?
Nim: Yeah, I finally understood that I was putting my faith in money instead of in God. And that God is the only one who can have dominion over the world.
Amos: That's a very mature attitude.
Nim: I know. And now I can focus on what I REALLY want.
Amos: What's that?
Nim: Pure, raw power!

Do you do things to bring glory to God or to bring glory to yourself?

Proverbs 13:17 – Worldly Success

By on April 7, 2024 in Comics

Get RIch Quick Scheme

God wants us to succeed in everything we do, but we should never put the pursuit of money ahead of our relationship with God. Proverbs 13:17 speaks to this:

Wealth from get-rich-quick schemes quickly disappears; wealth from hard work grows over time.

Proverbs 13:17

↓ Transcript
Con: What's wrong?
Nim: Abby pointed out something bad I've been doing. I was trying to get rich quick so I could have power over my own destiny, instead of trusting God to care for me.
Con: Cheer up, little guy. At least you see the error of your ways.
Nim: I know. But now I don't get to dominate the world!

Only a fool relies on himself over God.

By on April 6, 2024 in Comics

Total Market Domination

By on April 5, 2024 in Comics

Total Market Domination

Making money is good as long as it doesn’t replace God in your life. Be sure you keep Christ in your heart as you do the work necessary to make money.

For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. And some people, craving money, have wandered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.

1 Timothy 6:10

The Eye Of A Noodle

By on April 4, 2024 in Comics

The Eye of the Noodle

Jesus saying “It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into Heaven” is recounted in 3 of the 4 books of the Gospel. That’s how important a message this is.

But be sure to avoid the common misconception of the passage’s meaning. It doesn’t mean rich people can’t get into Heaven, it means no one can get into Heaven without God, no matter how rich or powerful they may be. Remember the line Jesus says to follow up this well-known statement, “But with God, all things are possible.”

Matthew 19:24

Mark 10:25

Luke 18:25

Jerry: How go the moneymaking schemes, Nim?

Jerry: No...it's a needle.
Nim: A needle through a noodle? That doesn't sound too hard!
Jerry: No, you...
Nim: Get ready world! Nim's scheme machine is back in business!

The Bible has a lot to tell us. Make sure you understand what it says.

Nim's Got A Bad Gratitude

Sometimes being grateful is hard, especially when it’s about something we don’t like, but is good for us. Try to stay gratitude to God for all He gives you.

↓ Transcript
Nim: I hate going to the vet! I hate it! I hate it! I hate it!!!
Abby: You should try to change your perspective. Try to have gratitude that God has provided us with modern medicine. Instead of saying "I hate the vet!" say "Thank you, God for creating talented veterinarians I can go to."
Nim: Easy for you to say. You don't have to go to the vet today.
Abby: True.

Sometimes it's hard to remember to give thanks for things that aren't fun. Try to do it anyway.
