Everybody has something they are trying to prove about the Gospel. You can see it with many people in many places and walks of life, and maybe especially online. So what about me? I write a lot of stuff online, and I'm p…
Read messageIt just continues to amaze me. So many people are still persecuting Job. How? By saying the exact same thing about him that his three (or four) persecutors said. I mean it really amazes me that people say that God was tr…
Read message“Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou…
Read messagePeople just don’t get it. God does not bless sin and disobedience. Everyone wants to have things their own way, and expect God to bless them gloriously at the same time. I can assure you of one thing my friend; God desir…
Read message"Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days. Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth... As thou knowest not what is the way of the sp…
Read messageToday I would like to post a few scriptures to express what it is that God is looking for, and who it is that he will bless. All of these passages will be saying the same exact thing, but each one in a little different w…
Read message"Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment" (Mat. 22:37,38). "He that loveth father or mother more tha…
Read messageI have just a few minutes here today for a short post, and I would like to say something about the confidence of the Lord being with you in what you are doing in regard to the ministry of his Gospel. When you know that y…
Read messageThe book of Proverbs, along with the book of Ecclesiastes is the greatest compilation of divine wisdom that the world has ever known, and I would like to make a point about the first proverb that is listed in the book. N…
Read messageIt’s true, I write about this quite often, but I write about what is on my mind in the Spirit, and what I experience in the Spirit, and what I see in front of me from day to day. So here goes again: If you really want to…
Read messageMaybe the biggest mistake, as well as the most often made mistake by people in Christ, is going head first with things, rather than heart first. It is at the very root of the 'works' mindset, and at the very root of miss…
Read messageToday I feel to address what may be the biggest issue facing God’s people in this time. What really does constitute the new birth experience, and who really is in the body of Christ and the kingdom of God? To answer this…
Read messagePride. It’s ugly and detestable any way you cut it. And somehow pride has become a ‘good’ thing to people, even God’s people. According to the Bible, if we have pride, we do NOT have the love of God dwelling in us (I Jn.…
Read messageJust a few words today on something that the Lord let me understand many years ago, which becomes more significant to me every day. It has to do with the first type of soil in the parable that Jesus told about the sower…
Read messageThere is a line that divides between being righteously able to receive forgiveness easily, and just thinking that forgiveness and grace are basically a license to remain a sinner. That line is very thin, and only those w…
Read messageI’ve heard some stuff in recent times about “You are what you do.” This is a true saying to some extent, and it is also an erroneous saying to some extent. Sound confusing? It’s not really, it’s just that everything isn’…
Read messageMy friends, let me say this as clearly as possible: There is no right way to hold on to any wrong thing. That is very simple, and very, very true. The apostle Paul said something for the ages, and it should be taken into…
Read messageDeceit, deceit, and more deceit. Then there’s more deceit after that. On every hand the deceit of man shows it’s proud, ugly face. Or at least on almost every hand. To actually hear someone speak straight, with no facade…
Read messageJust a short post today, but to the point nonetheless: “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lus…
Read messageJust a couple of notes on the past two posts about the non-inclusion of natural ordinances under the new covenant. The apostle Paul stated very clearly to the Galatians, who had been duped by errant Jewish believers to o…
Read messageGenesis 5 King James Version (KJV) 5 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; 2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their…
Read messageThere’s a lot of faulty terminology about things in the Bible and in the faith of Christ that really need to be corrected. One of them is about “the nine gifts of the Spirit.” What? Yeah, I’ve heard about the nine gifts…
Read messageYou can run but you can’t hide. Nowhere and in nothing is this more true than with God. The froward and frivolous of today are the broken and lowly of tomorrow. You can hide behind deceit, be it playfully or maliciously,…
Read messageJonah 2 King James Version (KJV) 2 Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish's belly, 2 And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and t…
Read messageI’m still thinking about the things that I posted yesterday in this venue. I mentioned that it hurts God’s people to observe natural ordinances, and diminishes them spiritually, as the apostle Paul also stated in Galatia…
Read message“Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh” (Philip. 3:2,3). What the…
Read messageThe question today is, Are you of the letter, or of the spirit? You cannot be of both. It is quite an important question to be able to answer accurately and honestly, seeing that the scripture plainly states, “But now we…
