"And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples, He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?…

I have a simplistic, to the point post today; but it truly "lays the ax to the root of the tree," as pertaining to the prospering of the people of God. I'm talking about the born again experience that makes any person a…
In the Bible, the term “the devil,” when referring to Satan himself; comes from the Greek word “Diabolos,” and means “slanderer.” Jesus also made it crystal clear that the devil is the father of lies (Jn. 8:44). The firs…
Have you noticed that the whole world is just absolutely insane? I sure have. That is simply what has to happen when a person, a nation, a world goes further and further in the opposite direction from doing the will of G…
If I've seen it once I've seen it a thousand times... at least. God's people have been conditioned to set their priorities in backward motion. The modern Christian traditions that are so focused on "going to church," and…
"When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said" (Jn. 2:22). "He that believeth on me, as the scrip…
It is such a tragedy, and yet it surely is an unfortunate reality. I see it all the time, whenever I have the opportunity to be around some of God’s precious souls. God’s people have been, and are being taught against th…
"And the Lord said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided m…
Someone supporting a "take it by faith" Gospel asked me a few weeks ago if I believed that the blood of Christ was great enough to cover the cost of all of my past, present, and future sins. He was upholding the common C…
Today I would like to clarify the issue of baptism by looking at the most notable passages of scripture that we have about the subject, and point out with pure simplicity of the scriptures just what these passages are sa…
"Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the sain…
"I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit... Abide in me, and I…
"While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him. Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. B…
A certain topic has surfaced around me a number of times recently, and I would like to set the record straight about what the Bible says in regard to it. I'm talking about "pre-existence," meaning the belief that everyon…
"For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not. For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with…
"The poor useth intreaties; but the rich answereth roughly" (Prov. 18:23). This scripture can be applied to a whole lot more things than someone just being rich monetarily. If you observe things, you will see that anyone…
