Read message“Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye. Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before…
Read messageAnyone who does not understand or heed the old saying of “Don’t kick someone when they’re down,” should read the short book of the prophet Obadiah, and his [or God’s] furious rebuke of Edom. Here is the key element of th…
Read messageLast night while I was out I heard a song on the intercom system at the place where I was eating, and part of the chorus of the song really stood out to me. It went like this: “She is love, and she’s all I need.” Awwww,…
Read messageI have just a few words today about something that I consider to be really interesting Bible trivia. It's actually a question, and that question is, Who is the most underrated and forgotten man of the new testament scrip…
Read messageIn the days of the prophet Jeremiah, the last king of Judah before the third and final Babylonian captivity was Zedekiah the son of Josiah. Zedekiah did not follow the word of the Lord, and ultimately his and the remaind…
Read message“Moreover the Lord saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing [skipping] as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet: Therefore the Lo…
Read messageTo quote the words of a fairly famous song of recent memory; "I don't know much, but I know I love you; and that may be all I need to know." Well, all I can say is amen, and that IS in fact all we need to know. If all of…
Read messageOne of the oldest tricks in the devil’s book is to make you feel like you’re going to be missing out on something if you turn everything over to the Lord, and serve him fully. He played that card on Eve in the garden of…
Read message"Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife" (Prov. 17:1). This scripture really says a lot. I tell people often that your life is only what the condition of your heart…
Read message"O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? for your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away" (Hos. 6:4). I have to wonder just exactly how God feels when he make…
Read message“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth” (II Jn. 1:2). This is quite a statement by the beloved apostle, through inspiration of the holy Ghost. It is quite…
Read messageI have just a couple of thoughts today about the widely embraced idea that God the Father does not have a body of his own. Everyone agrees that Jesus has a body, and some uphold that Jesus is in fact THE bodily manifesta…
Read message“He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him” (Prov. 18:13). I may have done a post some time in the past with this as the text scripture, but if I have, it is certainly time to do ano…
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 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. If the clouds be full of rain, they empty thems…
Read messageI’m afraid that a lot of folks are just bound and determined to find ways to be overly righteous. The way I have in mind today is regarding the reality of escaping the damnation of hell. Yeah, I know I’ve already turned…
Read messageFunny how it seems to be unanimous among Christians and people in general that everyone they know who is deceased has “gone to heaven.” And everyone feels as though they also are “going to heaven.” Well, I would that all…
Read messageThere is an overwhelming spiritual epidemic among God’s people, and among people in general, and it is nothing new. It is the exact same thing that Jesus addressed when he was here, as did the prophet Isaiah in his day:…
Read message“For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and…
Read messageI caught myself praying about something today that I pray about often, and I had to reconsider what the heck I was praying. My prayer at that particular moment was, "Lord, let me understand your will about healing and mi…
Read message"The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul" (Psm. 19:7). I received a letter in the mail many years ago, that was a response from someone about one of my radio broadcasts. After reading the letter, the holy Gho…

Read message"O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps" (Jer. 10:23). Often times in life we just don't really know what we are doing, or where we are going. One thing is…
Read message“Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me. Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul…
Read message“But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid… I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in…
Read messageThe biggest lapse of understanding that I've seen through the years among God's people, is the inability to see that God is a God of judgment and wrath at the same time as being a God of love and kindness. God is simply…
Read message“And some of the Hebrews went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. As for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling. And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had…
